Clear Coating Print

Clear Coating Print is a function that adjusts glossiness by applying the Chroma Optimizer (CO) ink to the printed surface.
When Clear Coating Print is performed, surface irregularities due to pigment ink use will be evened and glossiness variation will be reduced. This prevents unnecessary light reflection, improving the intensity of the printed material.
In the Clear Coating Print function of Print Studio Pro, you can specify the area to which the Chroma Optimizer (CO) ink is applied.

Note

When the Clear coat the entire page checkbox is not selected, the ink is not applied to the white areas in the image as well; therefore, areas with and without the Chroma Optimizer (CO) ink applied will coexist in the image, which may cause awkwardness. In that case, it is recommended that you apply the Chroma Optimizer (CO) ink to the entire print area.

See Print Studio Pro Guide for details on the operation procedure.
