In printing books, many aspects of the conditions will affect the quality of book, such as: printing presses, paper and printing, printing ink, staff, temperature difference will affect the quality of picture book printing. Advanced printing equipment, printing mechanic, raw material color and temporary operation, workshop working environment, the responsibility of the operator, are consideration scope.

1. Thin paper printing

It is more difficult to print than thin paper. 80gsm is thin paper, thin paper in printing is easy to go wrinkling, the requirements of the machine speed to speed up the printing machine, when book printing china the appropriate adjustment of the speed of the printing machine.

2. Thick paper printing

More than 250gsm known as thick paper, thick paper printing is easy to go offset. So-called thicker paper, in the printing time to take slow machine operation while the large suction machine also to adjust to the appropriate air suction, according to the real situation on the spot debugging. Heavy paper printing machine loss is relatively large, operators must follow up and observe, according to the actual situation of the production site to give appropriate treatment, to avoid unnecessary losses.

3. Printing ink

Printing speed is too fast, not dry ink and print severe piled up, this will lead to natural reproduction, offset printing ink penetration, the phenomenon such as ghosting, skater can cause the phenomena of printing, pulling the version of this phenomenon is more serious, the above problems are very common, is easy to solve, can avoid completely.

4. Printing plate debugging

The operator is more critical, to carefully pay attention to the operation, to ensure that the paperboard feeding force balance, and layout making, assembly, correction is also the key, layout positioning, as far as possible to meet and meet the requirements of the printing plate conditions.

5. High definition

Before the printing plate, the first preparation work, everything is ready, such as: selection of printing materials, verification of all kinds of data of the printing machine, ink coating roller ink layer adjustment, roller motion pressure, printing machine speed, etc. Synchronize to ensure the quality of the print.

6. Color correction

Batch no off color, printing ink requires color is pure, bright picture is light quality, but the problems associated with the quality of the paper have some of the images of high quality print out more bright a light, and the weight of the chemical elements contained in ink, it will produce different chemical reaction in different environment, such as: moisture, temperature, high pressure, etc… So it can also lead to unusual changes in the print album, keep in mind.

7. Printing intensity

Printing machine avoid ultra-thick paper printing and full-plate printing, printing machine loss is not easy to control, in reality, encountered more than 350 grams of paper printing, many printing plants are not willing to accept orders, full-plate printing is not easy to control. In book printing china, corrugated board is a printing press the paper guide roller, printing roller is passed to the slot of molding, cardboard roller pressure in the process of transfer, the different degrees of change in its physical properties, inevitably affect the strength of the printing.

8. Pre-press trial version

Before the formal printing, it must go through an important process, usually advertising companies or manufacturers directly to cooperate with the color version.

9. After work

Edge, a film, indentation, binding is exquisite, any work after the order is very important, you can imagine, this time the effect completely, however, has said, even when you are in front of the good work, behind a carelessly will lead to the comprehensive work down the drain, so each working procedure should be done nuanced.

To understand the selection of catalogue printing, firstly it need to understand the function of catalogue printing. Different catalogue types are recommended for different origami works. Good catalogue printing china can be said to be the external communication of the enterprise window, it can not only reflect the size of the enterprise, nature, product characteristics, and so on, but also can leave a visual aesthetic feeling to consumers.

In catalogue printing china, from the enterprise’s industry positioning and product characteristics, need to build the creative advertising composition of reflecting the strength of company. Folding paper is a kind of paper folded into different shapes of the art of living.

In the selection of paper, generally selected paper to thin, toughness moderate to introduce several common paper:

1. Art paper is the most common paper. Most of the catalogue printing is used this paper. The cost of art paper is relative to relative benefits.
2. Hand-kneading paper, this kind of paper is almost recognized as origami paper. The advantages of this kind of paper lie in the free height, various specifications and colors you can choose, and the flexibility of the paper.
3. Kraft paper has a strong toughness and life. Because the color is mostly brown, the product often reflect a strong classical atmosphere. Paper folding also works well.
4. Cloud-dragon paper: the natural texture of cloud-dragon paper is beautiful and not common. The paper has the advantages of fiber length, folding without damage, extremely high toughness, excellent water absorption and ink absorption, and rich elasticity. The product presents a soft curvaceous, presenting another school of paper art style. If you want to fold a very beautiful work, you can consider using cloud-dragon paper, but it is more expensive.

Different things need different folding paper, in order to print to show different product. Single product with simple content can choose such a folding way to print. Produce a single product, which can reflect its personality.

There are two kinds of foil stamping in catalogue printing china, gilding first and then gilding, what is the difference between the two kinds of gilding?

Foil stamping firstly refers to the label machine, web first bronzing, and then printing. After foil stamping refers to the first printing, finally foil stamping. The key is the drying of ink.

After foil stamping is an ideal method to bring convenience to  catalogue printing china, expanding the application. However, due to the limitation of device functions, the costs are relatively high. First foil stamping technology for simple graphics and text small label processing, low cost, wide range of applications, is the medium and small printing plant commonly used method.

1. After foil stamping process using ink, stamping parts installed in the label machine behind the printing station. The drum material is first printed and dried through a drying device, ink drying, and then the ink drying material surface or ink surface stamping. Because the ink has been dry, bronzing text and text side by side and overprint on the drum material without any effect, will not occur ink rub dirty phenomenon.

2. First foil stamping process is used in batch type paper printing machine, using ordinary ink, the stamping parts are installed in front of the label machine printing station. Because the ink used for oxidation polymerization drying, after printing ink completely dry need a certain time, so bronzing graphics and text must avoid the ink. The best way to avoid ink is in the drum material in advance stamping, and then printing, so that the printing text and text and bronzing separate (side by side). If in bronzing graphics and text printing, due to anodized aluminum for the metal surface, ink only volatilization, conjunctiva, no penetration, and anodized surface smooth, not ink, not suitable for printing. First foil stamping to prevent ink stains, to ensure the quality of label printing.

In BookPrintingChina, we not only provide for the printing service, but also pay attention to improve the quality of catalogue printing china. Let’s list them as following.

1. If the print has a cross-page design, which means that the image or text on one page will cross over to the next page, it is best to first locate the feed rail and paper teeth in the factory, and then place the material as close to the area as possible. In addition, try not to split a text into two books to print.

2. Always bleed 1/16 inch or 1/8 inch (other live pieces). Any more than the cutting line of the image, must leave a certain margin outside the cutting line (generally 3 mm), so that people in the trimming cutting on the micro version of the error correction, this margin is called bleeding. Therefore, when cutting a pile of pages, appropriately increasing the amount of bleeding can improve the cutting quality of the whole live part.

3. If you send a printed document that requires die-cutting, it is best to store the tangent lines on a separate layer. This allows the printer to turn off the layer in the document before printing. Also, if you get a proof sheet that has been printed with die tangents, make sure your printer knows that the lines do not need to be printed. This may sound simple, but there are a lot of people who can’t do it.

4. To determine whether the paper you choose can achieve the desired printing effect. Some paper may be too thick to carry out multiple folds. Some paper may not be suitable for UV coating, some paper may take many days to dry completely, while some paper can only be used for water-based coating, otherwise it will be damaged by binding equipment.

5. When designing a document with many pages that is intended to be saddle stitching, it is important to take into account the fact that the inside pages of the book or the book moves away from the spine during production. Because the more pages and the higher the spine thickness, the more likely this is to occur. In order to avoid this situation caused by the text and image uneven phenomenon, it is best to start from the outermost page to gradually reduce the margin of each page binding line.

More information for catalogue printing china, pay attention to https://www.bookprintingchina.com/.

NOTE: This article is posted originally on https://bookprintingchina.edublogs.org/2020/02/25/how-to-improve-the-quality-of-catalog-printing-china/.

The binding way of saddle stitching is mostly used in magazines, books, and catalog etc. The paper of this kind of book printing china chooses 60-80gsm offset paper commonly, high-grade magazine use 105-157gsm art paper. If you carefully observe the semi-finished products folded and stacked together, you will find that there is an accumulated width between the posts. For every 1mm increase in book thickness, the transverse stacking width of the spine will increase by 0.5mm, and increase with the number of posts. Under 2 prints, the spine of the book at the mouth of the accumulated width of about 2mm, riding after the spine of the stack of pages will be tighter by the wire nail.

When cutting into finished products, the most inside the pages will be cut off about 2mm, this effect on the page quality is not too obvious, but when the number of tie increased to 4, the book spine of the accumulated width will generally increase to 3-5mm, the most inside the invisible extruded, cut the mouth formed trapezoidal edge.

Due to the set of 4 posts can not be close, sometimes the width of the spine stack will be greater than 5mm, and the width difference can not be resolved, cutting, the inside of the page was extruded edge of the finished product was cut 5mm, open the finished product book, page finished part of the finished product was cut, some frame edge of the picture is not in the center. Most seriously, some of the page Numbers were cut off, and some were moved significantly to the edge of the cut. The page Numbers were badly misaligned throughout the book, directly undermining the overall page design.

How can we solve this problem?

Above all, it must understand the product characteristic, the paper type that chooses and tie number. For only 1 to 2 posts of general magazine, choose 60gsm offset paper, according to the normal collage method, version center can be placed.

If it is 4 pieces of books, no matter what type of paper to choose, collage of the third piece of all pages of the heart should be moved to the custom mouth 3mm or so, the fourth piece on this basis should be increased to 5mm or so, do not worry about the heart of the movement will appear unexpected quality problems.

If it is a high-grade picture magazine, you can use the computer collage system, 1 to 4 posts of the heart, page number 1 — 32, 33 — 64 to the mouth to do the gradient of the movement, from the inside page of 32p and 33p, move 5mm or so, and gradually to 1p and 64p center position to stop.

In addition, you can also use the required paper to fold a complete sample book before collage, and measure the width of its spine after stacking, in order to obtain accurate data, before production, so as to reduce unnecessary waste.

Prepress technology is a technology that includes all the production processes prior to the formal printing. It can be divided into four processes: manuscript, plate making, output film, proofing.

If the work of a traditional prepress process can be done on a single PC, it constitutes desktop publishin. This is different from the traditional pre-press platemaking process. In the process of digital pre-press processing:

• The author sends the electronic document with words to the editor. After editing, the article is sent to the layout designer through the electronic media to design the layout. The artist directly creates all kinds of graphics on the computer.

• Designers can use professional software such as PS or CorelDraw to make pictures and texts. During this process, the text can be modified and edited, and the position and shape of pictures can also be adjusted, specifically in designing catalog printing china.

(3) The following contents should be checked before the produced files are exported to the film:

1. Whether there is enough bleeding in the file(3-5mm).

2. Check the correct of overprint and its meaning.

3. If the color is correct, whether there is RGB or other incorrect color.

4. Whether the conversion format (Tif, Eps) and resolution (300– 350 for 175 lines) of files between different applications are correct.

5. Whether the document has corner lines (registration crosswire).

6. Can distinguish between printing four colors and spot color, and the meaning of spot color.

7. Small text, line color to meet the overprinter requirements.

8. Whether the documents with text and text connection are well connected, whose the location is correct, printing and saving format is correct.

(4) After the result of the group version is satisfied, the electronic file can be sent to the output center, and the high-resolution film can be output through the photographic dispatch.

(5) Finally comes the proofing. Proofing can be roughly divided into three methods:proofing machine proofing, simple proofing, digital proofing. The purpose is to check whether the reappearance of tone and color of the manuscript meets the requirements. And layout size, image, text layout, whether the line is correct. Provide proof sheets or basic printing parameters for formal printing, such as ink color, the range of dot reappearance, etc., so as to achieve the standardization of printing operations, provide customers with samples of the final printing product, especially important in catalog printing china.

In order to overcome the uneven layout of the ink layer, hair flower phenomenon, and due to lack of experience in the process, some printing factory often blindly increase the amount of ink to meet the bright and thick visual effect of printing ink layer, so that the printing ink layer over the bottom, imprinting and ink film crystallization and other adverse consequences. It must pay attention.

How to slove this problem? Especially for the catalog printing china, beacause there are many product photos:

1. Paper smoothness lead to ink layer hair

Paper rough absorption of ink is large, when the surface of the printing paper smooth, ink layer is prone to hairspray.

Solutions:

In this case, the appropriate increase in the printing pressure, so that the smoothness of the paper and printing ink layer, to achieve a uniform, adequate embossing contact conditions, so as to achieve a better printing ink layer to eliminate the phenomenon of printing ink layer, to ensure that the printing ink layer uniform and flat.

2.Printing pressure is weak resulting in ink layer

Wood base itself is not strong enough, the possibility of compression deformation, resulting in the printing pressure instability, the printing ink layer on the layout can not be evenly transferred to the printing sheet, this situation is often easy to make people mistakenly means that the ink supply is insufficient. On the other hand, because wooden bottom tray flatness is poor, can not meet the layout of normal ink and ink transfer.

Solutions:

The best way, in addition to the good pad plate operation technology, for printing a larger area of the plate, such as the format of more than 16, it is appropriate to use a good flatness and solid gold plate holder, can better prevent the page ink hair phenomenon.

3.Ink cloth ink balanc lead ink layer hair

Color printing is usually some large, ink absorption of multi-color overprinter products, and large printing to get even and appropriate ink coating, cots hard, can not achieve uniform transfer of ink and cloth ink, because cots hard its viscosity is weak, is not conducive to transfer ink.

Solutions:

Should carry on the careful analysis and the inspection one by one, discovers the mediation bad has the gap, should readjust to eliminate the gap. The clearance caused by wear of shaft head and shaft hole should be repaired. Such ability better avoid pass ink, cloth, ink balance caused by the product layout hair phenomenon.

Based on the digitized production control information, the digital workflow is combining the pre-press image processing data, printing process data and post-press processing data into an indivisible digital system, so that the digitized graphic information data can be transmitted to all links in a complete and accurate manner, and finally processed into printed products.

At present, customer requirements for printing products are shorter and shorter delivery time, higher and higher quality, less printing, more varieties, lower unit price, etc. How to produce products to meet the quality requirements of customers in a shorter time is an urgent problem to be solved. And using ink presets in the digital workflow can solve this problem effectively.

1. The prepress digital workflow produces the PPF file

Digital workflow includes two parts: graphic information flow and control information flow. Graphic information flow is to solve the problem of “what to do”. And control information solves the “how to do” and “how about it” problem. A PPF file is a document that allows the printing press to produce “presets of inks” by means of a collage. Ink presets are using control information in the digital workflow.

2.Print cip3/4 control system

Printing factory generally develop cip3/4 control systems that work closely with their printers.

3. Printing ink presetting system

The cip3/4 control system generates ink key signals and thumbnails that are transmitted to the printer’s console for ink presets.

Ink presetting technology is an indispensable technology for printing production to enter the digital era. It has changed the traditional printing operation mode based on human subjective experience, and has promoted the transformation of printing production to automation, intelligence and datalization effectively, which has become one of the most important parts of printing digital workflow.

• Sustainable packaging

Consumers want environmentally friendly packaging. This is a trend in packaging. Most big brands are trying to use recycled materials in their packaging.

• Simple

Simple packaging is defined as packaging that contains only necessary information.

• Retro nostalgia

Retro packaging may be the opposite of bold colors and modern packaging, but it’s also popular with consumers. They are drawn to vintage packaging because it relates to their cultural memories and easily resonates with them.

• Transparent packaging is more realistic

Transparent food packaging has become a top packaging design trend. Consumers increasingly want to be able to see the actual products they buy.

• Increase customer experience

“Unboxing” videos on YouTube are arguably hugely popular. Consumers get excited when they open the package to show what they have bought.

• Related to your career

Benefit marketing is a strategy for brand enterprises to promote their products through CSR actions.

It’s time to think of packaging as a need, rather than simply adding it to landfills. So now we need to think more about in china paper bags printing.
