 The Chroma Package will be available for new presses as well part of an upgrade solution for existing Truepress Jet 520HD owners.   
 
The SC ink was designed to be printed on both standard coated and uncoated papers without the need for pretreatment or primer. It met printers’ needs for a quick-drying, fast-absorbing ink without the added costs of premium grade papers or treatments, the company said. 
 
With an expanded gamut and improvements in hue purity, SC+ inks allow printers to match colors in the wide range and accurately than SC ink.  
 
The Chroma Package’s engineering offers a newly developed waveform to drive the printer's high-definition heads. The Screen-developed waveform is a propriety algorithm controlling the precise mass, shape, and placement of each ink droplet on the paper. The Package will include Screen professional services and training to help customers tune the press for maximum gamut. 
 
The Chroma Package is available now with new presses. Screen has also begun the process of scheduling field upgrades for existing customers who choose to convert to the new technology.
