Abstract

The effects of paper structures and ink trapping conditions on the ink trapping were investigated for a commercial lithographic printing system. The ink trapping is estimated optically with the use of densities. The results indicate that papers with coating structures allow much better ink trapping than uncoated papers. The ink trapping coefficients of different overprints on coated papers are 1.7 times higher than that on uncoated papers. The ink trapping at wet-on-dry overprints is more effective and insignificantly depends on the paper structure
