INTENDED FOR: Wide format, eco-solvent, solvent-based and UV-cured inkjet printing. To achieve the best

possible print quality, please make sure that the correct ICC profiles or printer settings are used. Profiles can be

obtained from our Distributors or can be downloaded from www.mactac.com . Printer and heater settings and ICC

profiles can also be downloaded from some O.E.M. or software manufacturer’s websites. The ICC profiles are provided solely as a customer resource. Print environments, the individual nature of printing systems, inks and software can significantly affect output. It is the customer’s responsibility to determine the suitability of any profile for use in their specific print environment.

REMOVABILITY:

This product has 1 year clean and easy removability after application on many surfaces. The removability of

JDT429 may be affected by the following substrates: polystyrene, nitrocellulose painted surfaces and soft PVC.

With such substrates an increase of adhesion over time may occur and adhesive residue on removal may be noticed.

LIMITATIONS: Due to the wide variability of interior walls, sealants and paints, no claims for successful

applications to or removal from painted wall surfaces are made by MACtac. It is the users’ responsibility to

determine the products suitability for the intended wall.

1) The user is responsible for determining the product’s suitability, including adhesion and if needed,

removal characteristics when used in applications other than listed specifically in this Performance

Guide.

2) If there are any questions about applications, please contact your MACtac sales representative to

discuss your requirements for recommendations.

3) If this is a printed Performance Guide it is an uncontrolled document. Please check the MACtac

website for the latest, most up-to-date version.

DURABILITY: The outdoor durability of the unprinted film is 3 years. JDT429 has up to 2 year removability after

application. Removal after the first year may result in some slight adhesive residue, which can be easily cleaned off

with alcohol or adhesive remover. Overlamination of the inkjet-printed material with Permacolor overlaminates

delays color fading that may occur over time. This color fading is mainly dependent upon the inks quality (see

technical data sheets given by the ink manufacturers) and the pressure sensitive media being used.

RECOMMENDATIONS:

Always test your combination of JT5000 products, inks and laminating films prior to commercial use.

1) Printing Conditions: Print in conditioned pressroom at ±73°F (23°C) and 50% RH. Ink saturation should

not exceed 270%.

2) Drying Requirements: Solvent, Eco-solvent and Mild-solvent inkjet prints require 24 - 48 hr. drying time

- open to the air. Inks do not dry when printed media is rolled up. The prints must be dry prior to

lamination.

3) Laminating Conditions: If the printed graphic is likely to be exposed to corrosive liquids, smoke, fumes

and highly polluted areas or there is a likelihood of scratching it is highly recommended you laminate with

Permacolor LF3600 series (High Performance), CG8000 series (intermediate) or PC7000 Gloss

(economical) overlaminating films. Please be aware that adding an overlaminate will significantly reduce

conformability to complex surfaces.

4) Transportation Conditions: To allow for easy transportation, IMAGin JT5000 series can be rolled up,

with the image out, with a minimum diameter of 6 inches (15cm). When the image is not protected by an

overlaminate, make sure the print is completely dry and protected in a plastic bag. During transportation or

storage, avoid exposing them to extreme temperature and humidity changes.

SHELF LIFE:

2 year from D.O.M. when stored at 60/77°F (15/25°C) and 50% relative humidity in the original package.
