Grayscale Printheads Go On Show At FESPA 2008
The Fespa Digital exhibition will see Xaar stage inkjet printing technology demonstrations that will show the potential of its latest 760 and 1001 grayscale printheads.
The Blackjet Opal inks are approved for use in the Xaar XJ128/360, the XJ126/300 and XJ500/360 dots per inch (dpi) printheads.
They are claimed to bring the same, consistent performance to graphic art applications at the higher resolution as with the standard versions, but with ultra-sharp images.
Properly matched to the high resolution heads, the finished product is giving outstanding results, added Xaar.
Jill Woods, the ink product manager at Xaar, said: "We have worked with Intech Digital to offer fully approved value solvent ink to our China-based customers for the new Hi-Res printers.
The Blackjet Opal (Hi-Res) series has been developed to ensure optimum functions and efficiency of all the latest Xaar XJ printheads, offering customers excellent quality and print performance." Intech Digital's managing director, Adrian Peirse, added: "After an extensive period of thorough testing and evaluation, Intech Digital has again met Xaar's stringent standards in our Xaar-approved, Blackjet Opal (Hi-Res) inks.
Our 'One System' criteria for printhead and ink has again produced optimum performance for our Xaar OEM partners.
To distinguish the new breed, our inks for the existing 200dpi heads will be available under the Blackjet Opal Lo-Res label." Intech Digital will offer technical support and advice to Xaar customers.
For its part, Xaar said that it offers its usual warranties on the full series of Hi-Res and Lo-Res heads when used with the appropriate Blackjet Opal Inks. Request a free brochure from Xaar ...
