	%X The objectives of this research are to produce
prototype coconut oil based solvent offset printing inks and to
analyze a basic quality of printing work derived from coconut oil
based solvent offset printing inks, by mean of bringing coconut oil
for producing varnish and bringing such varnish to produce black
offset printing inks. Then, analysis of qualities i.e. CIELAB value,
density value, and dot gain value of printing work from coconut oil
based solvent offset printing inks which printed on gloss-coated
woodfree paper weighs 130 grams were done. The research result of
coconut oil based solvent offset printing inks indicated that the
suitable varnish formulation is using 51% of coconut oil, 36% of
phenolic resin, and 14% of solvent oil 14%, while the result of
producing black offset ink displayed that the suitable formula of
printing ink is using varnish mixed with 20% of coconut oil, and the
analyzing printing work of coconut oil based solvent offset printing
inks which printed on paper, the results were as follows: CIELAB
value of black offset printing ink is at L* = 31.90, a* = 0.27, and b* =
1.86, density value is at 1.27 and dot gain value was high at mid tone
area of image area.
