Details:
Smallest details might fill in or drop off at press. This tendency varies from imprint-to-imprint and item-to-item and will be assessed on a per-imprint and per-item basis.
PMS Match
Exact PMS color matching cannot be guaranteed with digital imprints. Metallic inks are not available. Ink will print as matte on absorbent surfaces such as napkins and may print more muted than it appears on your screen.
Digital Printing Color Variations:
Due to variations in monitors and printing processes, colors on digitally printed napkins may appear slightly different from what is seen on-screen or in printed proofs.
Napkin Color:
Recycled paper napkin stock will vary slightly in degree of whiteness and brightness from lot to lot and some lots may appear to be a brighter shade of white then others. This is normal and is not considered a defect or quality issue.
Font Size:
Our digital print technology does an excellent job holding small and fine details. Different font types and sizes will print differently on smooth or textured surfaces. Please see the examples below of font styles and sizes printed on both non-embossed and embossed napkins.
QR Codes:
QR codes should be at least 1” x 1” in size, although different devices will scan and read QR codes differently. Vector art files and dark ink colors with a light or white background is recommended on white napkins and coasters. Each QR code order will be tested before printing entire order.
