Make Way for Ink-jet
Ink-jet technology is advancing due to its low-cost consumables, potential offset speeds and top-quality imaging. But will it leave xerography in the dust?
The print heads are constructed from individual chips that measure just 20mm across, yet each contains 6,400 nozzles and incorporates five color channels. Thermal ink-jet technology is used in the current generation, but McGlynn expects a mechanical version of the head to be available within three years. That would enable a wider range of ink types to be used.
