Signature protected photosensitive optically variable (POV) inks are provided, which are capable of providing a unique signature in addition to other security features of POV inks. The inks contain at least two types of colorants, and a third, signature component and other ingredients to enable printing. A first colorant comprises a fluorescent dye and / or pigment emitting light within a characteristic emission band when excited by fluorescent-exciting radiation. A second colorant comprises a dye and / or pigment having a light absorption band at overlapping or longer wavelengths than the characteristic emission band of the first colorant in such a way as to result in a dark color. The third component is a fluorescent / phosphorescent rare earth composition. The inks give dark visible ink images, which also produce detectable coincident fluorescent and phosphorescent images. The inks can be used with detectors of red phosphorescence to achieve a new level of security in high speed sorting operations.

Machine-readable light-colored or invisible, but luminescent, postage-evidencing symbology and dark, readable other postage information are printed, preferably in a single print operation, to provide large amounts of information without diminishing read rates. The resulting combination image can be printed independent of substrate material to enable the provision of a high information density without obscuring any one component. The postage-evidencing symbology is printed in large-format and can include redundant information within an IBI image or between an IBI and visible dark image for a variety of practical purposes. In a preferred form, the images are printed using conventional ink jet printers using water-based inks. In one embodiment of this type, the images are printed with a conventional two-cartridge color ink jet printer by printing postage-evidencing symbology with a single-color ink and printing the visible dark image as a composite dark color from a standard multi-color cartridge.
