HP Indigo digital color printing machine electronic ink

Indigo uses a unique electronic liquid ink. Unlike traditional inks, the curing of electronic liquid inks on media is not dependent on the drying time of the ink film, but because the liquid ink is exposed to a high temperature blanket (130). °C), immediately solidify, transfer the ink to the blanket, and then 100% of the ink on the blanket is transferred to paper or other media under the impression cylinder.

On the other hand, the basic material of the electronic liquid ink is a new type of resin material whose shape is a polygon under the magnifying glass and is not easily diffused under the influence of pressure like the conventional ink, but is tightly combined together with paper or other media. The contact is cured immediately, the printed image is clearer, and the edges of the dots are not blurred and diffused.
