October 30, 2007 - Trumbull, CT - Océ, a global leader in digital document management and delivery solutions, recently added two new offerings to its Océ Pro-SelectTM line of instant dry media: Océ Pro-Select 8 mil Glossy Photopaper and Océ Pro-Select 8 mil Satin Photopaper. Additionally, Océ Pro-Select Universal Backlit Film is now shipping. The Océ Pro-Select media line is designed for 17- to 60-inch photo and proofing printers including models from Océ, Epson, Canon and HP.
Wide color gamut and accurate skin tones plus superior shadow details with extremely low dot gain are standard with all Océ Pro-Select photopapers. Océ Pro-Select 8 mil Glossy Photopaper (PSphoto8G) and Océ Pro-Select 8 mil Satin Photopaper (PSphoto8S) include a bright white microporous topcoat with either a glossy (PSphoto8G) or satin (PSphoto8S) finish. Both include a resin-coated base to accept higher ink loads without cockling or bleed. The specially designed topcoat provides a fast dry, water-resistant sheet that is universally compatible. Prints are ready for immediate finishing and can be run unattended on a take-up reel, without ink drying concerns. The 8 mil caliper is ideal for prints that will be further finished with an overlaminate or by mounting, where additional thickness is not required. For applications requiring a heftier material, Océ recommends Océ Pro-Select 10 mil Glossy Photopaper (PSphotoG) and Océ Pro-Select 10 mil Satin Photopaper (PSphotoS).
Océ Pro-Select Universal Backlit Film (PSBCKLIT) is a 6.5 mil, fast dry, universally compatible PET (polyester) based inkjet backlit film designed to create even light diffusion and maximum image density. The matte surface on the reverse side reduces the impact of fingerprints making it easier to handle right from printing to installation. Océ Pro-Select Universal Backlit Film can be displayed either backlit (best color fidelity) or with reflective lighting, making it an ideal film for a wide variety of signage needs.
