Oven temperatures for web offset printers printing on metallized paper

In our tech tip Tuesday this week, we're exploring the oven temperature settings for web offset printers when printing on metallized paper.  

Press speeds and temperatures

Align press speeds and temperatures. 

For press speeds 500 to 800 feet per minute, keep oven temperatures between 145 to 155°F (63 to 68°C). 


Presses that offer faster machine speeds, 800 to 1,000 feet per minute should target oven temperatures between 160 to 175°F (71 to 79°C).
