Inkjet can be as color accurate as a digital halftone proof when working with process colors, Layton says. In contrast, while digital halftone technology does enable the user to add nonprocess colors, that capability comes at an “exponential” cost for every additional donor color. “One of our strengths with the Largo family of products is in our higher trap values, in the pigmented inkjet,” he says. “Our ink acts more like packaging ink in terms of adherence than some of the newer systems with photographic-type ink sets. In addition to getting the color right, you get the right opacity as well.”
