Assigning a spot color to a printer ink channel
If your printer supports white ink, clear ink, or metallic inks, you can assign any of these
additional printer inks in addition to the original spot color definition. The additional inks
are printed either behind or on top of the original spot color.
This feature enables you to create many interesting special effects, particularly if your printer
supports multi-pass (multi-layer) printing. Be aware that to create such special effects,
printer-specific settings are required on the Special Printer Settings pane. EFI provides
separate documents on how to incorporate printer inks into a Fiery XF workflow. Visit our
website at: http://w3.efi.com/services/proofing-services/knowledge-center.
You can use the available settings to simulate the final production run on a white or colored
substrate. Interesting special effects can be achieved for use in the packaging industry if your
printer supports the appropriate ink colors.
