Utilization of inkjet-generated masks for UV photosensitive materials as a cost-effective method for the generation of microfluidic devices requires resolution of certain anomalies related to combinations of various color components. These anomalies are demonstrated for UV exposures with a high-pressure mercury vapor source and possible solutions are discussed, including implications for inkjet manufacture designs targeted to similar applications.
