Description / Abstract:
This Technical Report describes a laboratory method, using a
printability tester, for the preparation of specimens in order to
evaluate the tendency of a particular ink, substrate and printing
procedure to produce chemical ghosting in sheet-fed offset
lithography on coated papers or foils.
A test procedure to induce ghosting using these specimens is
also included.
The presence of chemical ghosting is determined by visual
evaluation of test images. Chemical ghosting can appear either as
reverse-side yellowing on single-side and perfect printing, or as
image-wise gloss variations in perfect printing. This method
applies only to oxidative drying inks on coated papers or foils and
it evaluates a particular ink and substrate combination.
