Memjet Partners with Fuji Xerox

After announcing a bevy of partnerships at drupa last week, Memjet has added another major digital vendor to the list. It is now partnering with Fuji Xerox Co. Ltd. for the development of a wide-format printer featuring Memjet components.

Fuji Xerox will integrate Memjet technology and components into a roll-fed 42" wide-format solution targeted at technical and production graphics applications. The combination of speed, color and print quality (up to 1,600x1,600 dpi) are reportedly unmatched by traditional wide-format offerings. Fuji Xerox is targeting a formal product launch in Asia Pacific at future date to be determined.

The Memjet Wide Format inkjet printing system employs Memjet Waterfall Printhead Technology, delivering more than three billion drops of inks per second. The 42" wide print engine prints at speeds of 300 mm per second at 1600x800 dpi or 150 mm per second at 1600x1600 dpi.
