Simtri toner

With Simitri toner, fine lines and small text are clearly reproduced, and photos and illustrations have smoother gradation of half tones. Due to the particles being small and of uniform shape, Simitri toner reproduces text without jagged contours, and produces prints with brilliant sharpness. Its quality is most noticeable when making generation copies. Vivid colours close to that of the original silver-halide photo prints are obtained.

Clear and vivid colour reproduction is achieved, conforming to the JAPAN COLOR*² standard which has a wide gamut.

Gamut means a specified range of colour. It also determines a colour range where specified input/output devices such as monitors and printers can display and print within, respectively. The gamut that ordinary monitors can reproduce is argued to be smaller than that recognized by the human eye. The gamut reproduced by process-printing ink is even smaller than that of the monitor.

JAPAN COLOR standard has been established to unify the offset printing colours in Japan. Similar standards can be found in USA (SWOP), and in Europe (Euro Standard).

With normal commercial printing ultraviolet rays sometimes fade yellow colours. Prints using Simitri toner, however, are resistant to these ultraviolet rays and therefore colour quality is preserved.
