RE: Colorized Negs for Gum



Hi,
as I understand it, colorized negatives are mainly used for the uv blocking effect of certain inks, especially when using processes with long tonal range (palladium...)? With gum printing (short range) you will normally get enough uv blocking with grayscale negatives (printed with black only or with all inks mixing the grayscale) from almost any inkjet printer.

Subject: Colorized Negs for Gum

Hi all,

If anyone is printing digital negative for gum, are you using colourized negs?
If so can you tell me what negs, printer, color combination, print

Thanks
