Printing and handling guidelines
 

> Set-up
Store at room temperature (17-23°C), at a relative humidity of 50%, from 24 to 48 hours before use. Unwrap the paper only at the last moment before printing and rewrap it immediately after the print run.
For re-cutting: - keep the paper fibre direction (// to the large size) perpendicular to the printing direction.   
- For grammages > 135 g/m², plan a rejection cut.

- for black colour, blue support (40%)
recommended or two black sequences.

• Screen-ruling: up to 150 lpi.
 

> Printing

Finishing techniques: foil blocking, gumming, embossing, all varnishing.
 

> Shaping
Suitable for perforating, drilling, die cutting.

• Folding: parallel to the paper fibre direction
(// to the large size).

• Scoring: from 135 g/m², scoring with counterpart; from 200 g/m², larger scoring needed on the back of the fold.

• Cutting: wait 24 hours after the printing. Ensure that the blade of the guillotine is sharp enough to avoid dust deposits.
