ALPHARETTA, GA (September 8, 2008) -- Neenah Paper Inc.’s TECHNI-PRINT® 4.0 Heat Transfer Paper has received Indigo certification through the Rochester Institute of Technology’s HP Indigo Certification program for specialty media. The program enables manufacturers for specialty media to evaluate substrate compatibility with HP Indigo Digital Offset Color™ presses. TECHNI-PRINT® 4.0 received certification on the Indigo 5000 and 5500 series with three stars (the highest mark) on runability and blanket compatibility and two stars on fixing to the 400% area.
“We are pleased that TECHNI-PRINT® 4.0, another in our series of heat transfer papers, is certified for Indigo use,” explains Gerry Rector, associate marketing director for Neenah Paper. “It will allow those using the Indigo process for printing their large volume heat transfers to achieve outstanding print quality, even when transferring to difficult substrates such as leather.”
Set-up information on using TECHNI-PRINT® 4.0 is available for Indigo users on the Indigo website.
In addition to TECHNI-PRINT® 4.0, Neenah Paper’s PHOTO-TRANS® SC and DURATRANS® Heat Transfer Papers are also HP Indigo Certified.
TECHNI-PRINT® 4.0 Heat Transfer Paper was created for use in combination with the newest toner chemistries and the newest economical laser printers on the market today. It offers other benefits as well. It peels easily, reduces toner scatter for whiter whites and saves time and money by printing faster and more economically on the new laser printers.
TECHNI-PRINT® 4.0 feeds through most laser color printers and laser color copiers. It has the same great wash and vivid color as TECHNI-PRINT® and can be used on cotton, poly or blends. It works well on t-shirts, sweatshirts, heavier fabrics, wood veneer, leather and other surfaces. It is recommended for commercial shops and professional shirt producers.
