摘要： An approach is provided for applying a release agent to a substrate having at least a first surface and a second surface. The approach involves determining a presence of at least one ink image applied to at least one portion of at least one of the first surface and the second surface of the substrate by way of at least one step of a printing process. The approach also involves causing, at least in part, the release agent to be applied to the substrate so as to cover the at least one portion of at least one of the first surface and the second surface of the substrate upon which the at least one ink image is applied.

摘要： An approach is provided for controlling ultraviolet-curable gel ink spread of a printed image. The approach involves causing, at least in part, one or more inks to be applied to a first substrate image area by one or more inkjets in a printing zone of a printer, the one or more inkjets being configured to form one or more first ink spots on the first substrate image area. The approach also involves determining a temperature of at least the first substrate image area in the printing zone. The approach further involves determining a first spot size of at least one of the one or more first ink spots. The approach additionally involves causing, at least in part, a temperature of at least a second substrate image area in the printing zone to be based, at least in part, on the determined first spot size.
