May 2008
A large number of Xaar printhead-enabled printers is due to be demonstrated at drupa by key industry suppliers, including at least six new products making their worldwide debut. This sets a new record for Xaar, an independent supplier of industrial inkjet printheads, inks, and peripheral equipment, and is the driving the force behind Xaar’s ‘Unleash the power of inkjet’ theme for the show.

Designed for high-speed, single-pass and scanning applications, the latest Xaar 1001 printhead is based on Xaar’s innovative Hybrid Side-Shooter and TF Technology,which ensure accurate drop control, outstanding quality, productivity, and reliability. All the new products to be launched at drupa rely on either the Xaar 1001 or the Xaar 760 and XaarDOT (Xaar Drop Optimisation Technology) for their high-end performance.

Xaar’s innovative ‘single-pass’ technology
Xaar’s on-stand technology demonstrations illustrate the impressive performance and added-value potential of its latest printheads for commercial applications. Three single-pass inkjet products show the industrial-strength Xaar 1001 producing high-quality, high-speed, single-pass printing producing fine detail and readable small text, as well as smooth tones.

High-speed, real time, variable data label printing is demonstrated with the Xaar 1001 greyscale inkjet printhead on a continuous narrow web using the new ixPressia color label software. ixPressia’s new label product is optimised for real-world label printing applications, and includes advanced technology to maximize speed and throughput. A unique feature is the ability to generate label images in real time in full color with variable data. Its greyscale screening technology is the perfect partner for the innovative Xaar 1001 greyscale printhead.
