Printing and Converting Processes
  • Offset

  • Engraving

Printing/Handling Tips:
  • Paper should be fully acclimated in its original wrapping to pressroom conditions of 70° - 75° F with 50% relative humidity.
  • Twenty-four hours is recommended and slightly longer during cold weather.
  • Use fully oxidizing inks adding a maximum of 3% Grafo Drier
  • Add specific water-soluble drier to the fountain solution.
  • Run water at a minimum with a pH of 5-6
  • Use a spray powder (particle size 20+ microns) when printing both sides. When only printing one side use a particle size of 30+ microns. This prevents set off and allows oxygen to enter the stack.
  • For aqueous coating, please consult with your ink manufacturer.
  • Small lifts are recommended
  • The use of an IR oven helps drying time.
  • Always score before folding. With multiple folds, the primary fold should be in the grain direction.
