Step 3: Set the Number of Fill-overprinting Passes and Emboss with VersaWorks

You use VersaWorks to set the number of fill-overprinting passes using gloss ink. The unit performs matte-finish fill-overprinting for the specified number of passes, then performs fill-overprinting one additional time to give the surface a glossy finish. This means that the number of fill-overprint passes using gloss ink is equal to the number set using VersaWorks plus one.
