UV-curable ink-jet printing is one of the predominant imaging platforms in wideformat graphics production, thanks to the health and safety advantages they offer over solvent-based inks, their high productivity with nearly instant curing and superior adhesion, and the compatibility they offer with a broad range of media.
But some of the properties that make UV ink-jet such an attractive option also impose limitations in ink-jet's technical capabilities
