Fuji Xerox Introduces New Pink Specialty Dry Ink to Enhance Color Expressions in Digital Printing
SINGAPORE, Feb. 20, 2020 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/ --

Adds Dry Ink Lineup for the Iridesse(TM) Production Press
 
Fuji Xerox Asia Pacific Pte Ltd announces the new addition of pink specialty 
dry ink for the production color printer Iridesse(TM) Production Press across 
the Asia Pacific region, to strengthen the printer's ability to handle printing 
needs in specialized colors.

With its one-pass six-color printing engine, the Iridesse(TM) Production Press 
is able to load a maximum of two specialty dry inks in addition to the standard 
dry inks of cyan, magenta, yellow and black (CMYK), thus enabling rich color 
expressions that could not previously be achieved with digital printers. The 
new pink joins the lineup of other specialty dry inks that have been previously 
released for the Iridesse(TM) Production Press -- gold, silver, white, clear 
and custom red -- realized by mixing and optimizing a new fluorescent-type 
color into Fuji Xerox's unique EA (Emulsion Aggregation) toner.

The ability to incorporate bright and vibrant pink hues into the design of 
printed materials will help broaden the scope of different styles of visual 
expressions, including cute, cool and elegant styles. Moreover, mixture of pink 
dry ink with CMYK colors will enable printing orange, red, violet and other 
colors with a vibrancy that cannot be achieved with CMYK colors alone, thereby 
realizing a faithful reproduction of specialized hues such as corporate brand 
colors. The use of pink dry ink delivers fluorescent pink prints and other 
colors that are commonly used for applications such as front cover of magazines 
and comic books.

The new pink dry ink can also be used in conjunction with existing specialty 
dry inks including gold and silver, expanding the scope of expression for 
various on-demand printing needs, such as for marketing collaterals including 
point-of-purchase (POP) advertising, leaflets and catalogs, as well as for 
folding cartons and packages.

Furthermore, the GX Print Server for the Iridesse(TM). Production Press will 
provide an ICC profile conducting pink layer separation [Note 1]. This can be 
downloaded and used via the client's computer to more easily make use of color 
expressions that take advantage of the pink dry ink during the design process 
in developing print materials. The profile automatically separates RGB data and 
other data on specially designated colors into the optimal CMYK and pink output 
data, thus making it possible to easily create color expressions that benefit 
from the pink dry ink.

Note 1: Series of data for color management that distinguish color-related 
input/output devices and color space, in accordance with the standards 
announced by the International Color Consortium (ICC).
