Xerox advances inkjet technology Xerox has unveiled the first press in its class to use automated intelligence to optimise and maintain colour and image quality as well as self-correct in real-time. The Xerox Baltoro HF Inkjet Press cut-sheet production press enables users to print high volume transactional work and high quality direct mail and catalogues on a single press with superior image quality and productivity. The device’s automated intelligence, along with its High Fusion ink and Xerox High Fusion W-Series Inkjet Heads, delivers true high definition 1200 x 1200 dpi image quality without the need to condition media with priming solutions or pre- coats. Eliminating the priming solution reduces press size, power consumption and total cost of ownership while increasing productivity. www.xerox.co.uk Sustainability achievement for HP HP Indigo digital printing inks are now certified for compostability in home and industrial.
