A digital printing system configured with the method is also provided. Target color data of a target color to be printed on the reflective substrate is captured, including both color data and spectral reflectance data. The captured color data is processed with a printer model to output a preliminary dosing ratio for each ink channel. A digital opacity value for the target color is computed from the dosing ratio of each ink channel. A natural opacity value for the for the target color is computed from the captured spectral reflectance data, and a difference between the digital and natural opacity values is calculated. A predicted dosing ratio for each ink channel is obtained by interpolating the difference against an ink step of a diffuse ink component of the target color."},"analysis":{"summary":null,"layman_explanation":null,"technical_analysis":null,"business_analysis":null,"faqs":null,"topics":[],"tech_cluster":null},"seo":{"title":"Dosing ink for digital printing on reflective substrates","description":"A computer-implemented method is provided for dosing ink in a digital printing device with multiple ink channels, when printing on a reflective substrate.
