Epson Europe collaborates with ILFORD to target high quality backlit display market

The companies have worked together to develop the kit which includes display film, laminates and dedicated RIP profiles. In combination with Epson Stylus Pro large format aqueous inkjet printers, Epson UltraChrome K3 or HDR inksets, the new ILFORD OMNIJET Display Trans Media Kit provides a photo-quality, cost-effective alternative to traditional silver halide backlit displays. The new solution allows sign and display companies to produce backlit displays quickly and efficiently using their existing Epson Stylus Pro printers, and without the need for chemical post processing used in traditional silver halide backlit production methods. Backlit displays produced using Epson printers and the OMNIJET Display Trans Media Kitdeliver impeccable image quality, even in dense black areas and skin tones, and are compatible with the latest generation of backlit display devices. The kit consists of photo-quality translucent display film and two rolls of laminates for front and back hot lamination. The rolls are available in 127cm and 152cm widths to match traditional silver halide widths and are available in 40 metre lengths for optimal productivity.In addition, two levels of profiles have been developed for both Caldera and Onyx RIPs to offer either maximum quality or maximum productivity depending on the final nature of the output.
