Question
Does 4OVER4 print on black paper with white ink, and what happens to the vibrancy?
Answer
Yes, 4OVER4 can print white ink on black stock, but the paper you choose has a big effect on how bright that white looks. On uncoated stock the ink soaks in and the white reads softer and more muted.
- For the most vibrant result: 16pt gloss cover with a hi-gloss finish keeps blacks deep and printing sharp.
- On uncoated cover: ink is absorbed into the paper, so colors and white ink appear more muted.
- If you prefer a non-glossy look: a soft-touch varnish on 16pt uncoated is an alternative worth discussing with the team.
