| Abstract | The next great frontier for digital printing may be textiles. Of course, textiles were actually one of the first applications of digital printing. Recall that Milliken has been jetting designs onto carpets since 1975 using an air-valve deflection continuous ink jet with a production speed of 20 meters/ minute at 20 dpi. Today Seiren is digitally printing 10 million yards of fabric per year. And Canon has hardwar e for sale. Yet most digital printing has been reserved for coupon or sample printin g and not production printing. This paper presents some basic requirements for production printing and discusses applicatio n f several types of ink jets. The potential and current usefulness of piezo-based printheads will be presented. |
