Wide-Format Ink-Jet — Digital Printing Goes Flat

Adding another twist to the business relationships, Inca was acquired in 2005 by Dainippon Screen, which is the parent of Screen (USA). Screen, however, entered the market at Drupa 2008 with its own Truepress Jet2500UV ink-jet printer that is a combination flatbed and roll-to-roll system. It outputs a maximum 1,500-dpi resolution on media up to 98.4˝ wide. The unit prints in CMYK, with the option of adding light cyan and magenta or white ink, at speeds up to 726 square feet per hour.
