How to Create a Media for White Ink Print Jobs
Note:
If you change the name of your Spot color to anything other than Spot 1, the data file
you prepare for this media must also make use of the exact same spot color name. Also,
this name must be set up in Color Management/Edit Profiles/Spot Channel Replacement.
Do not use the name "White" as that name will prompt ProductionHouse to treat it in
a particular manner not desired for the white ink workflow.
The preview color chosen here will be used as an indication of Spot color layer usage in
the Preflight preview. We suggest that you select a color that is easily recognized as non-
image data, such as a fluorescent or pastel color. Also, if you use the same color for all
your media configurations it will provide quicker identification of the spot data in Preflight.

Note:
The printer only has one available white ink spot channel, so do not insert a second spot
or the Rip will treat files using this configuration as separations.

At this point, the media you have created can be used in Preflight to view and Rip files
for white ink output. You will be able to see where Spot white has been used in prepared
files and work with Preflight's Spot Layer Tool. However, media at this stage is without
those components of a media model that determine the optimal ink usage, such as ink
restrictions and linearizations. Not utilizing these components will result in inaccurate
color output and without an ICC profile your usable file color space is limited to CMYK.
As well, not restricting your ink levels correctly may result in an increase in ink droplet
misting issues.
