Epson create new backlit display kit

Epson Europe has collaborated with sign and display technology developer, Ilford, to develop a kit for the high quality backlit display market.

The Ilford Omnijet Display Trans Media Kit includes display film, laminates and dedicated RIP profiles.

In combination with Epson Stylus Pro large format aqueous inkjet printers, Epson UltraChrome K3 or HDR inksets, the new kit provides a photo-quality, cost-effective alternative to traditional silver halide backlit displays.

Epson say the new solution allows sign and display companies to produce backlit displays quickly and efficiently using their existing Epson Stylus Pro printers, and without the need for chemical post processing used in traditional silver halide backlit production methods.

The companies claim that backlit displays produced using Epson printers and the Omnijet Kit deliver impeccable image quality, even in dense black areas and skin tones, and are compatible with the latest generation of backlit display devices.

The kit consists of photo-quality translucent display film and two rolls of laminates for front and back hot lamination.
