Talking about Inkjet Printing (I)

Digital printing as a brand-new printing solution is rapidly developing and has penetrated into various fields involved in traditional printing. In particular, inkjet printing is the fastest-growing and most favored by manufacturers and users in recent years, and has a wide range of market and development prospects.

First, the development of inkjet printing

1. The development of inkjet printing technology

Inkjet printing was developed based on inkjet printer technology, so inkjet printing technology and inkjet printing technology are exactly the same.

Back in the 1960s, some people began to study inkjet printing technology. Until 1976, the world’s first inkjet printer IBM-4640 was born. It uses continuous inkjet technology. Due to the immature technology, printing The effect is very poor. In the same year, piezoelectric dot control technology emerged. Siemens successfully introduced the Seimens Pt-80 inkjet printer using this technology, which became the world's first practical inkjet printer. In 1979, Hewlett-Packard developed thermal foaming inkjet technology; the same year, Canon, Japan developed bubble jet technology, and in 1980 it launched the world's first inkjet printer using bubble jet technology. -80, has opened a new chapter in the history of inkjet printers, but also laid a solid technical foundation for inkjet printing.

In 1991, Hewlett-Packard introduced the world's first color inkjet printer, the HP deskjet 500C. Large format printers also appeared. In 1994, the Epson-developed micro-piezoelectric printing technology was introduced. In 1998, the world’s first Epson Stylus Photo 700, a six-color color inkjet printer using micro-piezoelectric printing technology, was introduced. In the same year, Canon introduced the world’s first seven-color photograph. Inkjet printer Canon BJC-7100.In 2000, HP introduced the first HP Deskjet 970cxi, a color inkjet printer that supports automatic two-sided printing. Since then, inkjet printing technology has entered a new and rapid development period. In recent years, many manufacturers have introduced photo quality inkjet printers, and even introduced direct photo inkjet printers without computer control and direct output from digital cameras to printers, such as Canon S530D color inkjet printers, HP Photosmart 7838, etc. .

The predecessor of the large-format color ink jet printer was a pen plotter. In 1991, Hewlett-Packard Co. first applied its inkjet printing technology to its large format printer and launched the world's first monochrome large format inkjet printer, the HP Designjet. It has made a qualitative leap in terms of speed and quality compared with pen plotters. It has introduced inkjet technology for the first time in the engineering drawing field. Since 1993, large format inkjet printers have been applied in the CAD field. After 1994, large format inkjet printers have been widely used in the inkjet industry. In 1995, HP significantly increased the price/performance ratio of large-format printers with the HP Designjet 400 series. From then on, large-format inkjet printers and the entire inkjet printer technology continued to evolve. Since 1997, large format inkjet printers have been commonly used in the digital proofing system in the printing industry. In recent years, many manufacturers, such as Hewlett-Packard, Canon, Epson, and Fuji Xerox, have applied the new technology of ordinary color inkjet printers to large-format inkjet printers, such as tiny droplets, separate cartridges, color layers, and multicolor inks. Micro Piezo technology. At the same time, large-format color inkjet printers have been favored by users of all walks of life with its fast, flexible and exquisite output, which has strongly promoted the development of inkjet printing technology and inkjet printers.

2. Inkjet Printing Market Profile

According to the market statistics of the global printing industry in 2004, digital printing has accounted for 10% to 12% of the global printing output value. According to the statistics of Strategies on Demand, the digital printing output in 2005 increased by 16%, of which inkjet printing accounted for a large proportion. Since the drupa 2004 exhibition, inkjet technology has been greatly developed. In 2004 alone, more than 20 manufacturers launched large-format UV inkjet printers. At the Print 05 printing exhibition in the United States, the exhibition area for large-format inkjet printing equipment expanded more than 13 times compared with Graph Expo 2002, and large-format inkjet printing equipment became an important part of the exhibition. In foreign countries, inkjet printing equipment has developed rapidly.

The domestic ink-jet printing industry started relatively late, and there is still a certain gap compared with developed countries such as the United States and Japan. At the same time, the development of the inkjet printing market is uneven, with more low-end applications, mainly inkjet printers, which are mainly used in home and office areas, digital photo printing industry, and so on. In the printing industry, most of the devices used are large-format inkjet printers or non-production digital inkjet printers. With the dramatic increase in sales of inkjet printing equipment around the world, the domestic inkjet printing market is also expanding. Taking China's sales of inkjet printers as an example, according to CCID Consulting's statistics, the number of printers sold in the Chinese market was 6,867,700 units in 2005, an increase of 14.8% compared to 2004, of which 4,811,800 units were inkjet printers, an increase from the same period last year. 16.3%. It can be seen that inkjet printers account for about 70% of the printer market, although mainly for home, office use, but there are also large format inkjet printers. With the prevalence of informatization, personalization, and variable data printing, inkjet printing will have great development.

Second, the application of inkjet printing

Since inkjet printing is a non-contact, pressureless, non-printing digital printing method, it has unparalleled advantages over traditional printing. It has nothing to do with the material and shape of the substrate. In addition to paper and plates, it can also use metals, ceramics, glass, silk, textiles, etc., and it has strong adaptability. At the same time, inkjet printing does not require film, baking, imposition, printing and other processes, and has been widely used in the printing field.

1. Lottery printing

Lottery printing has become very popular in developed countries such as Europe and the United States. In recent years, China has also begun to popularize the issuance of lottery tickets. Sports lottery tickets, welfare lottery tickets, and various commercial papers with random numbers, bar codes, and two-dimensional codes and other variable data can all be printed using inkjet devices. With inkjet printing, it can adapt to a variety of different thicknesses of paper. At the same time, the ink can penetrate the paper fibers. The winning information on the lottery ticket can prevent alteration and prevent counterfeiting.

2. Large format inkjet

In the area of ​​large-format printing, inkjet printers are used. In fact, it is another definition of inkjet printers. It usually refers to large-format and ultra-large format inkjet printers. The general width is above 1m and the maximum can reach 3~5m. It is mainly used for making large-format posters, promotional items, outdoor advertisements, etc. For example, a large-format advertising printing plant in Germany printed the world's largest inkjet newspaper using the VUtek Ultra Vu 3300 inkjet printer. With the prosperity of the market economy and the expansion of commodity circulation, the inkjet printing of outdoor advertising will show a significant increase.

3. Digital Proofing When DTP has just emerged, digital proofing uses continuous inkjet and thermal sublimation methods. Although many specialized proofing devices were introduced at the time, with the advent of large format inkjet printers, large format inkjet printers have been widely used as proofing devices. With inkjet technology, not only less investment, faster, but also the output image quality and final product quality similar to meet customer requirements.

4. Personalized printing

With the prosperity of the economy and the improvement of people’s living standards, there are many personalized albums, commemorative albums, desk calendars, calendars, etc. These prints, which require less print, require shorter time, and have lower costs, use inkjet printers or inkjet printers. It is more appropriate.

In addition, inkjet printing can be used in the direct mail printing market, which is already very popular in the United States. With the continuous development of inkjet technology, inkjet printers are not only used in advertising, photography and other industries due to their good image quality and high speed, but also in applications such as trademark printing, packaging printing, and security printing. Indispensable output device.
