Epson Continues to Expand its Portfolio of Proofing Media With New MetallicProof Film
Epson's MetallicProof Film Joins ClearProof Film and CrystalClear Film to Form Ultimate Trio of Proofing Solutions for Packaging and Prototyping Markets
LONG BEACH, Calif., Aug. 9 -- Epson America has once again expanded its line of proofing media for the packaging and prototyping market with the introduction of MetallicProof(TM) Film paper. Designed specifically for use with the Epson Stylus® Pro WT7900 with Epson UltraChrome® HDR White Ink, Epson's new MetallicProof Film, along with Epson's innovative ClearProof(TM) Film and CrystalClear(TM) Film, give packaging designers and pre-press houses a range of high-quality, low-cost printing solutions to produce contract proofs, mock-ups and prototypes.
As the first of its kind in the industry, MetallicProof Film is a revolutionary proofing media that enables designers and packaging companies to extend their prototyping capabilities in-house with new substrates and printing effects. Epson UltraChrome HDR White Ink provides an opaque base layer on MetallicProof Film, enabling high color saturation and resolution. MetallicProof Film can also be used in combination with the Epson Stylus Pro WT7900's seven ink colors to create special effects such as pastels or metallic colors like gold and bronze.
"Epson is dedicated to providing a variety of high-quality substrates that directly benefit the unique and increasingly complex needs of the packaging and prototyping market," said Jeff Smith, product marketing manager, professional imaging, Epson America. "MetallicProof Film is the first of its kind in the industry and truly expands the printing capabilities of packaging designers. In addition, Epson's entire line of packaging papers enhance the workflow of proofing and prototyping professionals for both flexographic and gravure printing, providing near instant dry times, rich blacks, and vibrant colors."
