Light Fastness
The fading time of inkjet ink is a direct result of the inks that you choose to use and the environment where the print is displayed. Contact the ink manufacturer for light-fastness data.
Finishing/Post Processing
Pressure-sensitive vinyl laminates with UV inhibitors can be applied to increase the fade and abrasion resistance of the image. Before applying the laminate, allow the image to dry for 24 hours. Residual solvent trapped beneath a laminate as a result of insufficient dry time can cause color shifts.
Software Settings
The coating on this product is engineered for better than 300% ink coverage. A photo luster, satin or semigloss setting is the recommended starting point. However, we recommend a custom ICC profile for optimal results. Please refer to www.lexjet.com for starting-point ICC profiles for some printers.
Optimal Print Environment
70° F (21° C), 50% R.H
Handling Recommendations
Due to the absorptive nature of the coating, you should avoid touching the coated surface. It’s always recommended that cotton gloves be used when handling inkjet-coated materials. Rolls of LexJet film are supplied with the coated side facing out.
Ideal Storage Conditions
70° F (21° C), 50% R.H. (a controlled environment is recommended); store in original packaging.
