I am struggling with these to get a decent strong colour rendition. Anybody else print on these? Do you get a decent colour rendition? I have two profiles of my own, one for soft substrates and one for hard substrates, this has covered all things in the past....but not these glass coasters.
So have you had success?
Cheers all

PS If you have success with a Ricoh sg3110 and sawgrass inks with trupix paper shout as well and I dig mine out!

We print a lot of glass coasters at the moment on SG7100, truepix and sawgrass inks. We use 190c and 160s. And of course the coaster sits on top of the paper whilst on the press. Hope that helps.

Thanks, that is quite interesting, I have been doing 200c and ranging through 240-300 secs. I'll drop things back and see how it goes.

Sorted....dug out my Ricoh and sawgrass inks. Prints nicely on glass coasters.
Cheers.

Probably worth a mention and a thanks, these settings are also spot on for Merlin's square glass clocks that I'd been fighting with.
