Ilford, a developer and manufacturer of professional quality media for inkjet printing, graphic arts and colour photographic processes today announces full availability of Omnijet NanoSolvent Premium Photo Papers.
Developed in response to increased printing speeds achieved with every new generation of (eco)solvent printing hardware, the new product employs a unique hybrid layer design that pumps the solvent through the layer and quickly holds pigments resulting in fast-dry printing with no tackiness. Faster print-to-lamination times, from as little as 30 minutes, are therefore possible, improving workflow and subsequently increasing margins.
Featuring a bright white base tint and water-resistant layer, Ilford Omnijet NanoSolvent photo papers offer superior image quality with high colour density and large colour gamut including with metallic inks. With a Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification (PEFC) certified photo RC paper base and lower temperature settings, the products offer a cost effective solution with limited environmental impact.
“It’s a fact in the commercial wide format industry; everyone is under time pressures, both for last minute jobs and to increase productivity,” says Paul Willems, CEO at Ilford. “Printer manufacturers have responded, with many achieving a 30-35% speed increase from generation to generation. However, until now media manufacturers have not kept pace.
