Printing in Spot Color (Metallic and White Color printing) / Multi Spot Color Printing
Multi Spot Color Printing
Use the steps outlined here for spot color printing using two or more spot color
ink cartridges. By associating each spot color with a color (or color composition)
in your application, you can print with as many as four spot colors (or three spot
colors and black). You can use this method with most applications that support
color.
Requirements
For multi spot color printing you will need the following.
•
Ink cartridges
When printing with multiple spot color inks as many as four of the following ink
cartridges can be used.
Metallic gold ink cartridge (Part No. 106030-00)
Metallic silver ink cartridge (Part No. 106045-00)
Metallic magenta ink cartridge (Part No. 106035-00)
Metallic cyan ink cartridge (Part No. 106040-00)
Black ink cartridge (Part No. 106005-00)
White ink cartridge (Part No. 106050-00)
Spot color ink cartridges and a black ink cartridge can be used at the same
time just by installing a black ink cartridge along with the spot color ink car-
tridges you are using. No more than four ink cartridges can be used at one
time.
•
Media
Plain or smooth paper can be used just as with normal color printing.
Since metallic ink is not transparent, printing on colored paper also works
well. We suggest using High Grade Paper (Letter / A4 size) (Part No. 106085-
00 / 106085-00-EU) and Greeting Cards (Part No. 106090-00).
