A Texas In-plant Roundup
Fenton revealed that the cost of inkjet presses is decreasing, opening up this technology to in-plants. In the third quarter of next year, he predicted, managers should expect to see significantly lower-cost inkjet presses. Attendees were skeptical about the print quality of these devices, and Fenton affirmed that they did not produce offset quality, nor even quality matching high-level toner devices. But for many customers, he said, the cost savings overcome expectations of top quality. Fenton noted that by 2015, color inkjet will account for 43 percent of all printing, according to InfoTrends.
