Investigation on Reproduction Characteristics of Light Paper

Abstract:

By experimental and comparison method, printing characteristics of light paper were studied. A test form was designed for monitoring reproduction processes and evaluating reproduction characteristics. Then it was output on film, plates, and paper in turns. Results showed that performance of paper has a direct impact on reproduction quality; prints made by light paper have less color saturation, lower print contrast, much dot loss in light areas and less color gamut than those by offset paper. However, the difference between them was very small. Under good control this environmental friendly paper was absolutely able to the high quantitative offset paper in book printing. Effective measurements of improving printing quality on light paper printing were derived
