Varnish Workflow Overview
Introduction
Océ Arizona printers with the Varnish Option can use varnish as a flood coat or can
create spot features that place varnish in select areas in a print job. The printing of varnish
is applicable only to flatbed printing and is not available with the RMO.
This section describes how the printer provides varnish and gives a summary of the
workflow data preparation.
Definition
Varnish is printed as a second process after the CYMKW image is printed. Immediately
after printing a CMYKW image, the gantry moves to the start of image position and
prints a varnish spot or printer generated flood data. Note that printing a varnish flood
over a large image will require significant time.
Spot Versus Printer Flood Fill
Varnish data can be applied to a print job in two ways: Printer Flood Fill or Spot Data.
• A Printer Flood Fill is like an autofill that is done by the printer, where varnish data
fills the entire bounding box (the rectangular area that defines the total perimeter) of
the image. If a printer has two channels of varnish for double density, twice as much
varnish can be printed on a single image layer.
• Varnish Spot data can be defined in image editing applications such as Adobe Illustra-
tor® or with the Spot Layer tool in the ONYX workflow.
Note:
The Varnish option is not available for print jobs that use the High Definition print
mode. Varnish can be used with all other print modes.
Varnish Workflow Data Preparation
Varnish print job output can be accomplished in a variety of ways depending on the desired
results and preferred working process. There are three primary methods and they can be
used either independently or all at the same time. The workflow options are:
• Printer Flood Fill Configuration,
• ONYX software Spot Layer Tool, and
• White Spot Data Image Preparation.
