Printing Without Being Affected by the Color of the Object (White Printing on a Base)

When printing directly on a dark-colored object, it becomes difficult to hide the base and the CMYK colors will develop poorly. In addition, transparent objects allow light to penetrate through them, which also results in poor CMYK color development. To improve CMYK color development, print in white on the base.

MEMO White plates cannot be generated for photo data sizes such as jpeg. If you mask with shapes in FlexiDESIGNER, you can generate a white plate that conforms to the shapes.
Procedure
  1. Create CMYK print data in FlexiDESIGNER.
    The print data created here does not require the creation of a white plate for the base.
  2. Click VSD_icon_PRINT.
    The Send to Device window appears.
  3. Click Print parameters.
  4. Set the following with Quality Settings on the Quality tab.
    • Media Type: User's choice
    • Print Quality: User's choice
    • Mode: White->CMYK
  5. Select the White Plate Generation check box in Special Color Plate Generation.
  6. In Generated Pattern, select the following.
    • Print Area: A white plate is generated under the CMYK plate.
    • Outside Print Area: A white plate is generated outside the CMYK plate.
    • Entire Image: A white plate is generated for the entire printing area.
  7. If adjusting the size of the white plate, select Yes under Size Correction.
    If Size Correction is applied, the white plate will become slightly smaller.
  8. To close the window, click OK.
  9. In the Send to Device window, click Send.
    The print data is sent to the printer, and then printing starts.
