Foil accuracy and detail
The KODAK ASCEND Digital Press's unique single-pass process eliminates the registration and trapping issues that can occur with multiple pass technologies resulting in higher productivity.
KODACHROME’s Foil Dry Ink allows greater detail than ever before.
If you can print it, now you can foil it.
Rock-solid reliability
