InfoTrends Forecast: Inkjet Targets Commercial

Inkjet Arrays: Page-wide1 inkjet arrays have been a prerequisite for inkjet to enter color graphics printing with sufficient speeds. Before their introduction, inkjet systems capable of sufficient print quality levels had to use scanning (i.e., moving) inkjet heads, which intermittently print a swath and then forward the media a small distance. These setups did not allow for the high print speeds required in general commercial printing.
