Distinctive quality inks. The quality of an ink can be
characterized by a large number of laboratory and print parameters.
These include e.g. fastness parameters such as lightfastness and
chemical resistance, and physical (tack, viscosity) and
colorimetric properties (Lab). Moreover, ink also has to satisfy a
whole array of additional print and postpress parameters such as
print quality, smoothness in solids and screens, high-gloss
effects, rub resistance, etc. Heidelberg® has put together a
practical portfolio of inks to
cover these special requirements.
