Inkjet printing is acquiring the market with a rapid pace and it is widely being used to produce the personalized prints on the web. It is available in two major forms; i.e. Continuous Inkjet (CIJ) and Drop-on-demand (Piezoelectric) form. At one hand CIJ presses give the high speed advantages, on the other PIJ presses have the tendency to impart higher resolution to the print. Objective of this paper is to compare the dot gain tendency in CIJ and DoD-PIJ presses on uncoated, matte coated and gloss coated paper stocks. For conducting the research, a master test chart was prepared, including presSIGN colour control bar solid patches for cyan, magenta, yellow and black solids and tint areas. This chart was then printed using both CIJ and DOD-PIJ presses under standard pressroom conditions on uncoated, matte coated and gloss coated paper stocks. Subsequently, the printed sheets were analyzed, focusing on dot gain of four primaries on cyan, magenta, yellow and black patches, using the X-rite e-Exact spectro-densitometer. The resulting dot gain data was analyzed on uncoated, matte coated and gloss coated papers using the correlation analysis.
