Encad Inc. previewed its new Novajet 1000i large-format printer, which was due to be formally introduced at the PMA show. The printer is designed to provide greater productivity, outputting up to 150 square feet per hour with a maximum 1,200 dpi resolution. The unit's print heads are said to have three times as many nozzles and are compatible with pigment and dye inks. Speed also is enhanced by use of a dual-component (heat and air), rapid-evaporation drying system. The printer is available in 60˝ and 42˝ models.
