What is Solvent Paper Used For?

Artists who desire a high quality finish to their prints regularly rely on solvent paper. The material offers an extremely high level of finish, allowing for greater color density, vibrancy, and more. Solvent printer media is also designed to work with solvent based printers. This way, there are no aditional tasks or tools required. Simply prepare your file for print, select the solvent print media that best suits your work, and begin latex printing. It couldn’t be easier.

What is a solvent in printing?

A solvent is a print material that doesn’t contain water. Most traditional ink is at least partially water based. In the case of latex media, the latex ink solvent is printed onto the canvas material without penetrating it. This allows for staggering image quality and vivid colors.

What are solvent based inks?

Solvent inks contain oil or alcohol, which helps transport the pigment. Compare this to aqueous inks, which are water based. To learn more about various inks, check out our guide to archival quality printmaking.

Can you print on vinyl with an eco-solvent printer?

Yes, many eco-solvent printers can print on vinyl, provided the vinyl is specifically designed for solvent-based inks. Always check your printer's specifications and the vinyl manufacturer's recommendations to ensure compatibility.
