How to Setup a Printer Flood Fill

Prepare a Printer Flood Fill

With the Printer Flood Fill approach, white ink is set up as a layer that is embedded in the print job.

Purpose

The Printer Flood Fill mode allows you to print an image with a white flood fill as an underlay or an overlay. The edges of the image bounding box (the outer perimeter of the image) will determine the extent of the flood fill area.

About this task

This approach is used when an image is rectangular in shape and requires a white flood fill. The printer itself provides the flood fill rather than the ONYX Spot Layer Tool or an image editing application, so no additional data preparation is required.

NOTE

If jobs are nested in the ONYX software, white is printed between jobs when you use this technique because the outer extent of the entire nested job is used to define the flood area.
