HP technology in the industry - will it work for you?
As a technician in the printing industry for many years, I looked at the industries and develop technologies to improve the most print quality and reduce maintenance and cost per print. The most recent addition to the field has been the use of cartridges for HP printers standard product marking and coding outer envelope. This technology and most of its features have been developed in the printing industry on large canvases and dissemination of the address information industry.
Control is the key
The downside to this printing technology is there are too many things that need to be aligned for quality printing. The current trident and printing Zar engines a row of several nozzles. With the system of the ink cartridge HP style itself has two channels next to each other and the second row of nozzles just need to print the first row of nozzles or a ghost or blurred impression is created . This is much less evident in the text of the printing, but can be a disaster when printing graphic images or barcodes. Most manufacturers have included the ability to disable a set of nozzles 150 DPI vs 300 dpi. Printing with a license to a single channel is half of the night and if a nozzle into the cartridge or blocking a clear line will be present in print.
The second alignment comes into play when more than half of the characters or inch high bar codes to be printed. This is achieved by stacking a plurality of adjacent cartridges together in a progressively higher configuration. This requires the second printing of printing information to be perfectly synchronized to match the previous print and so on for each additional toner cartridges. Unlike an ink-jet ink of origin of the paper feed is controlled, and the speed of the print cartridge and the position is controlled in a manufacturing environment of the cartridge is stopped and printed on the roll material.
The ink cartridge has little or no "throw away", so that the print head needs to be placed very close to the printed material. Again on a Web application or a vacuum table This is easily achieved. However , a carrying case or box must be properly aligned the print heads for printing quality. If cases or boxes are not properly constructed and filled to maintain a square profile, they will often take the head Print or drag the passage and printing. remember all the time and alignment I mentioned above? alignment printing is controlled only by the timing of the print cartridges. If dredges or changes accelerate the time lost and all these alignments fail. encoders are designed to take account of changes in the speed of the transport system, but if the speed of the hardware is not exactly transport systems accelerate you lose!
It's clean, easy, and there is no maintenance
These three statements are true, the water based inks used in most of these printing systems is much cleaner than oil based inks used in Trident Zar and core technology base. No maintenance can be a double-edged style with these printers. Where improper cleaning a printer on demand Trident, Zar or down can cost thousands to repair and requires adequate training of oil-based inks do not dry if they are ready to print. HP cartridges are removed and capped when not in use and can be easily replaced by an employee. This can cause your ink costs skyrocket if your staff feel that it is easier to quickly replace a cartridge rather than clean and flush the system. Purging is a function that sprays the ink nozzles in an attempt to eliminate minor blockages. Your printer at home or office does on a regular basis, these systems require that you manually do in the software. A cartridge should give you thousands of prints can easily be discarded and replaced after only a few hundred copies. Ten times the original estimated cost. In a high-volume application, there are bulk ink systems available. Remember that each cartridge in a multi-tier configuration requires a separate ink. At a high, and the cartridge will leak, weak and he will die of hunger and level of air is drawn through the nozzles. I saw a bulk ink system that works well. As you can probably guess that it was developed and designed by HP and is limited to the ink they produce. Be absolutely sure that the cost savings of a bulk system exceeds the maintenance and the frustration of a poorly designed system. Remember also the cost of the cartridges in bulk more than one use of the cartridge, but can be replaced and removed just as quickly.
It is this type of system is right for you?
If you print less than ½ inches tall and less than 20 characters print a line This is a perfect system for you. You will not have alignment problems with a multi-head system. Most other systems will be designed to print a run of 3 inches, so the cost will be higher for features you do not need. I feel me limited to 20 characters from a constant speed when printing is easier to maintain with small engravings in length.
If you need a system of multiple cartridge you must ensure that you provide the following.
If you need a system of multiple cartridge you must ensure that you provide the following.
The material needs to be printed on the square. If uneven or curved does not print well. Asymmetric case binding and drag the transition from print head and give the ghost or blurred printing.
Conveyor systems must be smooth and regular. Since the print head is fixed and the equipment is in motion, as opposed to a printer at home or office, the absolute speed control is a must for these systems.
Presentation of the printer must be perpendicular to the place and head. With little or no ability to print on any material deviation distance being printed should be as close as possible without dragging the printheads. This required distance remain the same up and down, and the material passes from one side to another.
This type of printing technology has been used and proven to work well. We have all types of inkjet printers in our homes and offices. AFAIK, they are all printed with the nozzle of the cartridge down. I found there are several adverse conditions that occur when these cartridges are sent to print on a horizontal rather than vertical plain.
I had great success with this technology in very controlled as pharmaceuticals, cosmetics and laboratories where products and materials are contained during transport and are mostly robotic environments. Printing on a vertical plane also increased the reliability of these systems .............
