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 www.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 conve-
nience, 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 ex-
planation 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.
