HP INDIGO PRINTING

HP Indigo metallic inks are a type of special ink used in the HP Indigo digital printing process that produces a metallic sheen or shine on printed materials. These inks are made with a combination of tiny reflective particles and traditional ink pigments, which create a shimmering effect when printed on paper or other materials. The metallic inks are available in a range of colors, including silver, gold, copper, and bronze, and can be used to add a touch of luxury and sophistication to printed materials such as packaging, invitations, and marketing collateral. HP Indigo metallic inks are designed to be compatible with a variety of substrates, including coated and uncoated papers, synthetic materials, and metallic substrates.
