Color Inkjet Printing: Inkjet’s Web Paper Pursuit
With the introduction of the T300 color inkjet web press, HP followed up with ColorPRO, a similar technology for inkjet presses. Abitibi Bowater, Georgia-Pacific and Stora Enso all produce ColorPRO qualified papers. The program provides "a recognizable trademark to communicate value, quality and advanced performance," and requires that mills meet quality standards audited by HP. The HP T300 can also apply a "bonding agent" that enables printing on ordinary uncoated paper.
