Today, with the increasing popularity of digital printing, the art paper, as one of the most commonly used printing media, has become increasingly urgent for digital proofing and short-run printing. However, art paper has a smooth surface and lack of ink absorbing layer, making it difficult for traditional inkjet ink to adhere and lead to problems such as ink accumulation, ink flow, slow drying, and color distortion. 

HONGSAM, relying on its independently developed JETALL® water-based pigment ink, has launched a set of digital printing solutions for uncoated art paper, truly realizing direct inkjet art paper printing, providing an efficient, eco friendly and economical new choice for prepress proofing and short-run printing.

Art Paper Coating-Free Direct Print Technology

HONGSAM uses the synergistic effect of nanoscale water-based pigment ink and constant temperature heating device to instantly solidify ink droplets on the surface of art paper, without any pre-coating or post-treatment, achieving direct printing with high definition and high color reproduction. This technological breakthrough has completely solved such industry problem that art paper cannot be directly inkjet printed.

Excellent Adaptibility

This solution not only supports 128g-350g art paper, but also is compatible with various uncoated materials such as white card, gray card, pre printed paper, etc., truly achieving high adaptability and meeting the sampling and short-run printing needs.

Quick Implementation

The ink is compatible with EPSON 7908/9880/7880 (with external heating device) or indigenous i3200-head photo machines. The software supports various color management systems such as PrintFactory, Ruiyin, Maintop, EFI, etc., and supports ICC curve calibration to achieve precise color tracking.

Color Reproduction Ability

Basic 8-color K/C/M/Y/LK/LLK/LC/LM. Supporting spot color configuration OR/G/V, with a wide color gamut, high saturation, and good gloss. The printing effect would be  achieved immediately after sampling.

Drying Speed

Instant drying without waiting, suitable for fast flipping and short-run delivery. It solves the problem of poor coating fastness and greatly reduces the waiting time required for coating.

Environmental Performance

Water-based ink. no VOC emissions, no irritating odors, meets green printing standards.

Cost Control

No need for dedicated sampling paper, single sheet cost is much lower than traditional sampling, suitable for small batch sampling and replenishment.

Multiple Utilities

Realistic colors, smooth and delicate images brings high saturation and high color reproduction.

Pre-press Proofing: Accurate color matching and high efficiency, replacing traditional printing proofing.

Short-run Printing

For small batch orders ranging from tens to hundreds of copies, there is no need for plate making anymore.
