How to Print With White Ink
How to Use Media Models
Introduction
You must use a media model that is configured for white ink before you can generate white ink
output from ProductionHouse. The media is actually part of a media model description
(sometimes incorrectly referred to as a profile) that contains other specific information such as
ink restrictions, linearization, ink limits and ICC profiles. The creation of media models and
profiling is a complex procedure that is partly explained elsewhere in this document. If you are
not comfortable with the procedure, you can use the pre-defined media models posted on the
DGS web site. These media models can be found at https://dgs.oce.com in the Customer Support
area. Note that the names of these models contain a specific printer model, although they will
work for all printers with the white ink option. The media models provide a good start point for
the white ink workflow.
Generally we advise that you create a new media model or edit an existing one with your on-site
printer and the specific materials you use for print jobs. However, for your convenience, we have
provided a set of default White Ink Workflow media models that cover a few different common
print scenarios and media types. This section includes descriptions of each media model and
provides an illustration of how print jobs generated with them in ProductionHouse will look in
your printer's software interface. There is also some explanation of how they are to be used. If
you edit the models you can save them with a different name that reflects your changes.
NOTE
The term "media" can be confusing as it really has two meanings in the context of your ONYX
workflow. In general use, it refers to a physical material that you can print on. ONYX uses the
term media to refer to how a particular material is used and included within a media definition.
Their use of the term media refers to the model that you define and then use when you open a
print job. Océ uses the term media model to make the definition distinct from the physical
media. Another point of confusion is that media models are sometimes called Profiles. In fact,
ICC Profiles are only a part of the media model that is associated with color management and
are not the whole media model.
How to Use a Media Model
ONYX RIP Queue, ProductionHouse, and PosterShop, all use a media format known as an ONYX
Media Library (.oml). To install an .oml, select your printer and open the ONYX Media Manager.
In Media Manager, select Media> Import, and browse to the media. Once imported, the media
will be available to any print jobs that you open.
NOTE
ProductionHouse also allows you to create Media Groups that contain various Media Models.
You can create a group that contains media models with different settings for the same physical
material. Or you can group together various media models that have something in common, for
example the five media described in this section belong to the group "WhiteInkUsageMedias".
Day/Night on Clear Substrate

This media model was built for the creation of 3-layer Day/Night Application prints on clear
materials. This method of printing is used to provide pleasing output for images when viewed
under front or back lighting conditions. Day/Night output is obtained by first laying down a CMYK
