IBM Debuts Production Printers

IBM’s new Infoprint 5000, a full-color, variable-data continuous web system fills a gap between previously available industry color offerings of very high quality but lower speed and and those alternatives with lower quality but very high speed. The Infoprint 5000 utilizes piezo-electric, drop-on-demand ink-jet technology with water-based pigment inks that are resistant to fading and smearing, even on commonly used digital papers.
