Abstract
A paper product of the present disclosure having at least one ply is disclosed. At least one outer surface of the web substrate has indicia comprising at least one ink comprising a wax or glycerine disposed therein and substantially affixed thereto. The indicia is defined by CIELab coordinate values disposed inside a boundary described by the MacAdam 3-D gamut and CIELab coordinate values disposed outside a boundary described by the Kien 3-D gamut. Alternatively, the indicia is defined by CIELab coordinate values disposed inside a boundary described by the MacAdam 2-D gamut and CIELab coordinate values disposed outside a boundary described by the Kien 2-D gamut. The indicia have a dot gain of less than 20%.
