Generally, machine calendering are used change of paper surface properties. During machine calendering, dry paper passes between the rolls under pressure, thereby improving the surface smoothness and gloss. These improvements make the paper better suited for printing and decreasing problems during the printing, such as delayed dry and set-off. Then we investigated newspaper properties by the changing of machine calendering condition, and relationship printability. Properties of each samples were examined in accordance with KS and TAPPI standard test method i.e, basic weight, bulk density, thickness, porosity, opacity, brightness, smoothness and roughness. IGT printability tester was used to obtain ink requirement of newspaper, printed density and set-off. Results of in this study, we have proposed the optimizes range of newspaper calendering condition. Useful optimize calendering condition was pressure 55 kN/m, temperature 130℃.
