1. Check file is correct size – Recommended size is A2 (420 x 594mm)
Minimum size A3 (297 x 420mm), maximum is A2+ (432 x 635mm)
2. Name each layer clearly e.g. Layer 1 – Blue.jpg , Layer 2 – Pink.jpg
Note: (layer 1 = bottom/first layer)
IMPORTANT – Each layer should be saved as a greyscale image. 100% black (HEX000000) will print at maximum intensity, 100% white (HEXFFFFFF) will be left blank. Anything in-between e.g. 50% grey (HEX7F7F7F), will be printed at that percentage.
| Layer Colour | CMYK | HEX Code | Print Intensity |
|---|---|---|---|
| Black | 0, 0, 0, 100 | 000000 | 100% |
| White | 0, 0, 0, 0 | FFFFFF | 0% |
| 50% Grey | 0, 0, 0, 50 | 7F7F7F | 50% |
IMPORTANT – No more than 80% of any one layer can be printed at 100% intensity (e.g. a big black box), this causes the print to get stuck inside the machine due to such a large amount of ink being placed down.
