Michelman will be exhibiting in Booth #M1 at the DScoop Asia, May 12-13, 2013 in Beijing China. We will showcase our DigiPrime® water based primer for use on all HP Indigo presses including the W3250, WS6000, and W7200 series equipped with optional in-line priming units. DigiPrime produces superior print receptivity, and is designed for use on a range of both coated and uncoated paper as well as plastic and film. We will also be featuring Sapphire, a primer for HP Indigo presses formulated specifically to render paper compatible to ink, and Topaz 17, a solvent based primer that is applied via screen printing on plastic sheets to make them print compatible with HP Indigo technology. Topaz is typically used on PVC sheets used for card production. To properly finish your job, our DigiGuard® overprint varnish is used to protect and enhance the visual quality of your output.
Our staff will also be supporting HP at the largest printing and printing equipment show, China Print, May 14-18, 2013 in Beijing China at the New China International Exhibition Center (NCIEC). We will be available to answer any questions on digital printing primers.
