A new multifunction printing technology has been announced by Xerox which uses solid inks and manages to reduce printing cost of color pages up to 62%.
This technology has been incorporated into Xerox ColorQube 9200 series of printers, which promise to reduce color printing cost by up to 62% compared to color laser printers, but without losing any quality. The solid inks are actually like crayons, which are melted and squirted onto pages through the four separate print heads that can each spray up to 150 million drops of ink per second.
The fast spray speed of the printers allows to print at 38 ppm up to 85 ppm. And each solid ink cube can print 55,000 pages. Everything sounds good excepts the cost of the printer, which costs a whopping price of over $23,000. But in long run for those who’re involved in mass printing of color paes, would be able to save lots of their production cost.
