Introducing InkJet Film
Price Information

No Laser Printer Needed!

Features

InkJet Film produces the same quality photomasks you could expect from a kodolith film positive with almost perfect opacity! This is the preferred film tool  for positive or negative halftone imaging.
 

  • No More Film Positives or Laser Printer Necessary
  • Optimum Ink Density
  • Superior Translucency
  • Instantaneous Dry Time
  • Heat Resistant
  • Anti-Static*
  • 100% Waterproof*
  • Ideal for Halftone Imaging
* Like competitive alternatives, this polyester film has a coating on one side for printing that turns regular water-based ink’s into a water resistant product. When used with Piezo Head printers such as Epson®, Xerox®, and Roland®, InkJet Film becomes 100% waterproof and provides the best-imaging scratch proof results. Thermal Head printers such as Hewitt-Packard®, Lexmark® and Cannon® print excellent blacks, but are prone to scratching and/or smudging and are therefore not 100% waterproof.

How to Use

1. Prepare artwork as for output as usual. Minimum 600 dpi, 1200 dpi recommended.
2. Set Print Options. While printer options will vary, look for the following:
    a) In the Print Dialog Box, select the highest dpi possible (this will slow down print speed).
    b) Next, select “Transparency”, “Photo Quality Glossy Film”, or a similar setting for the Paper/Media option*.
    c) Last, select ink deposit to maximum setting.
3. Load the Inkjet Film so that the coated side of the film faces the inkjet printer head. Note: when the notched corner is in the upper right of the film the coated side will be facing you.
4. Print. With most ink jet printers, InkJet film will dry instantaneously; however, dry  time will vary based on model, ink, and humidity. Do not use until InkJet Film is completely dry.

* Failure to select the proper setting in the Paper/Media option will dramatically impair the ability of InkJet Film to reproduce a proper image on to the photo resist. In extreme cases InkJet film will fail to produce even the faintest image in spite of the appearance of "black" ink. REMEMBER, it is not how "black" or "dark" the ink appears to print on the InkJet Film, it is how OPAQUE the ink actually transfers.
 Using the proper settings will ensure an opaque, dense print.
