The Future of Industrial Inkjet Printing

UV-Curable Inks

Today, digital printing is fast becoming the preferred method for short-run and variable-data applications. While toner-based systems, such as Xerox Docucolor™ currently dominate document and variable-data printing, inkjet systems such as Agfa’s :Dotrix Transcolor are gaining market share.

For wide format applications, such as tradeshow displays, billboards, signs, posters, banners and vehicle graphics, inkjet printing has always been centre stage. Inkjet is the choice for these types of printing because of the versatility of inkjet technology and the nature of inkjet inks. Inkjet inks are far more versatile. They extend beyond the CMYK colour set to include Light Magenta, Light Cyan, Grey, Photo Green and Blue, and even White. Such colours widen the gamut dramatically giving sign, display and screen printers a palette that allows them to match customised colours and reproduce vibrant, eye-catching colours.
