Color-Logic has certified US converter Hazen Paper Company’s Transfer Metalized C1S Foiljet Digital 10-point substrate for use with HP Indigo 7000 and 5000 Series digital sheet-fed presses. 

Color-Logic’s chief technology officer Richard Ainge said: ‘HP Indigo users have been using metalized substrate for some time on label and packaging presses such as the WS6000 and ws4500, but qualification of Hazen Transfer Metalized C1S Foiljet Digital 10-point substrate means Indigo cut sheet presses that use white ink can now utilize the Color-Logic Process Metallic Color System as well. The Hazen substrate was tested by the RIT Printing Applications Laboratory and certified for use with the HP Indigo 7000 and 5000 Series digital presses in January 2011.’
