Q: Does YUPOBlue take as much time as regular YUPO to dry? A: No. The HP Indigo inks dry immediately. Q: Do I need to put a top coating (like a UV coating) over my printed piece? A: Depending on your application, a top coating may be necessary to protect the printing. Applications like menus and manuals or other demanding applications may benefit from a top coating. However, it is best to test the material in the end-use application to determine what is necessary.
