5-9 White Ink Features and Printing Methods

Features of White Ink

The white ink that this unit uses achieves high density and concealment, and is capable of providing
attractive results when white and CMYK inks are overprinted. This ink is suited to printing on transpar-
ent media, and lets you create results intended to be viewed from the back (the side opposite the
printed surface) by reversing the image and changing the sequence in which the white ink and CMYK
inks are printed. You can use this to create items for shop interiors and displays, PET bottles and other
packages, decals, and more.
Features of Ingredients in White ink
The ingredients in white ink tend to settle. Allowing the ink to stand without carrying out these steps
can cause the settled material to harden, resulting in malfunction or other problems.
