1), as opposed to the traditional, horizontal pattern. In essence, Mutoh has chosen a “wavy” interlacing pattern ( Fig. We won’t bore you with the science in fact, it’s magic to us anyway. Mutoh decided this problem could be attacked scientifically. If any one thing falters, you have a problem. If the profile is correct, the ink and media match and the media-advance system works properly, you get smooth, clean and band-free images. Generally, print machines apply the ink in a straight-line fashion, even if the RIP has programmed a stochastic or another error-diffusion pattern.

As the process progresses, colors build up – from light (the initial application) to full color, as they combine on the media.

That said, let’s see what Mutoh is doing differently.Ī digital printer’s printheads apply ink in a series fashion during the print process. A damaged head or mismatched media can still produce banding, even on an I2 printer. We’ll explain the new Intelligent Interweaving (I2 or I Squared) technology and the printers that utilize it.įirst, nothing truly eliminates potential banding. Mutoh uniquely addressed this problem and, interestingly, has added printer speed. If you don’t check your images frequently, you could face a costly redo. Paper movement and heavily saturated images can produce banding as well. Usually clogged or dead nozzles are the culprit. Banding manifests itself as visible, usually horizontal lines (sometimes vertical though) that stretch across the image. ink pricing but, rather, the horrible artifact of banding. No, we’re not talking about one-cent-per-sq.-ft. Well, Mutoh has – in our option – successfully tackled one of digital printing’s most vexing problems. The company has been at the digital-printing forefront, not only with some of the best-featured printers, but with prices in line with signmakers’ budgets. Each year, Mutoh America seemingly introduces something new.
