Continuous-Feed Inkjet Paper Options Continue to Ramp Up
At Domtar, the strategy continues to evolve. Domtar is launching a new grade: VantageJet, which is similar to VividJet, but optimized for dye-based inkjet. According to Rieser, Domtar's approach is "to drive the Domtar products that best match the customers' needs in terms of their end-use application, print quality expectations and budget." She adds that Domtar is working closely with OEMs and ink companies "to find the right solutions for this ever-changing market." Because of the need for consultative selling at the printer and end user level, Domtar continues to market its inkjet paper through the Enterprise Group.
