You need a special printer such as OKI white toner printer to print designs which involve white colour. Otherwise you have to use white decal paper, which requires very precise cutting to look professional.

Most of my customers use Roland VS300i eco-solvent printer with my blue backing roll paper (eco-solvent). The solvent printing is:

• Pros – Better printing quality and cost effective when you print often and large volume
• Cons – Large initial investment (possibly $15K+) and printer head gets blocked if not used often

Recommended printer settings: ‘Transparency’ & +3 Density for White

For instance:

Roland model: VS300i
The standard-profil [Max3] Generic Clear Film [MT]
High Quality, W->CMYKLcLmMt
(without metallic there is another profile without [MT])
Errordiffusion (V)
Nearest Neighbor
Uni-Directional (or Bi-Directional)
Heater and Dryer on 45°C (maximum)
Slow printing is needed for the White ink to dry, so better use Uni-Directional.

The acrylic waterslide decal paper cling closely to any ridges or intricate surfaces and the adhesion becomes stronger as it dries. This product is specially designed for plastic models and provides thinner and more flexible decals by adopting acrylic film whereas most normal waterslide decal products use urethane film.

This product is not recommended for large scale decals (i.e. bigger than 50 x 50 mm) as it is fragile. And please don’t use it with Samsung laser printers to avoid jamming problems.
