- Paper should be fully acclimated in its original wrapping to pressroom conditions of 70° - 75° F with 50% relative humidity.
- Twenty-four hours is recommended and slightly longer during cold weather.
- Use fully oxidizing inks adding a maximum of 3% Grafo Drier
- Add specific water-soluble drier to the fountain solution.
- Run water at a minimum with a pH of 5-6
- Use a spray powder (particle size 20+ microns) when printing both sides. When only printing one side use a particle size of 30+ microns. This prevents set off and allows oxygen to enter the stack.
- For aqueous coating, please consult with your ink manufacturer.
- Small lifts are recommended
- The use of an IR oven helps drying time.
- Always score before folding. With multiple folds, the primary fold should be in the grain direction.
