Key Benefits of Waterless Printing
- Consistent Color
Eliminate the vagaries of the dampening system and you get more consistent color throughout the press run.
- Better Color Saturation
Four-color process ink densities have averaged 20% higher than SWOP standards. A benefit designers and print buyers love.
- Low Dot Gain, More Detail
The inherent low dot gain of waterless lets you run higher screen rulings for much better detail. Waterless works well, regardless of the screen rulings. Even if you run 175 line screens, you’ll print a better product.
- More Paper Options
Waterless is great for printing on stock you’d normally stay away from with conventional printing. 24.6% of the jobs our waterless printers produce are on printed on uncoated papers. Take away dampening and many of the paper problems associated with offset printing disappear.
- Faster make readies
Nine different pressmen surveyed in L & E Packaging’s initial study all said that make ready times were faster. One pressman reported that the time savings was 40% over conventional make ready time.
- Better for the Planet
The reduction in dampening usage and paper waste are strong benefits that are now beginning to make themselves felt among those concerned with environmental issues.
