Product Highlights
| Features | Benefits | Advantages |
|---|---|---|
| 4.0 Optical density* achieved with Epson Matte Black Ink on a T-series printer | Excellent light-blocking power | - Wide exposure latitude - Holds fine line detail |
| Nano-porous clear ink receptive coating | Clear coating allows for use of aqueous pigmented black inkjet inks | - Better fade resistance with multiple exposures - Higher light block capability |
| Clear coating and film base: <13% combined opacity | High light transmission | Faster exposure times |
| High ink absorption into coating | - Better durability and scuff / scratch resistance when handling - Fast dry times | - Increased productivity - Longer lasting screen positives and negatives |
*Average optical density achieved using Epson matte-black ink on a T-series printer with a Harlequin RIP / 85% ink mask setting. Expect lower density, but higher scuff resistance if using Epson photo-black ink.
