GENERAL INFORMATIONB.
- Printheads: Color order and positioning
This schematic overview shows us that we immediately can print white followed by a
color in one print run. This is called “Pre-white” printing.
the 2 white printing heads are
alternately jetting to achieve
the optimum printing speed...
If we want to print color fi rst, and white
on top, we need to do it in two separate
print runs, using the “C/W” and “feedback”
option in the AgfaRip. This is called “Postwhite” printing.
When working with a spot white, the Wasatch SoftRIP will need to receive some extra information from you to determine the
position where the white has to be
printed. You can defi ne a spot white
either by defi ning a spot color in
Wasatch (spot color replacement) or
by using a spot channel in Photoshop.
If you want to use a spot channel,
make sure that the preferences (fi le
menu) of the Wasatch SoftRIP are set
to support this extra channel and that
your image is in a CMYK color space.
The option ‘process extra channels as
Hi-Fi Channels’ has to be enabled for
psd (photoshop) or tiff fi le formats.
