Abstract

This study investigated the effect of ink tack value on the ink transfer process in lithographic printing. The ink trapping is estimated optically with the use of densities. The ink trapping alters as a function of ink tack difference between the lower and upper ink. For the set of process colour inks that the tack difference between them is lower than 1 point, the ink trapping increases as the higher tack ink overprints lower tack ones. The proper ink sequence for the investigated system is M-C-Y.
