Why matt is the new gloss in digital printing: Dr. Ralf Müller, Stephanie Rohn and Holly Steedman discuss the challenge of creating a matt print varnish application, and explain how its full potential can be unlocked with the optimum printhead and drying system.
In terms of print image quality, inkjet printing has reached the level of UV flexography printing. Meanwhile, the ever-increasing number of print jobs, tighter working capital management and the philosophy of demand-driven production are leading to a significant reduction in average run lengths. Digital printing can answer these challenges by maximising print job flexibility and speed to market, while minimising machine set-up time and prepress costs.
