ZINK Imaging Unveils a Revolutionary ‘Zero Ink’ Printing Technology at DEMO 07
Enabling Printing Where It Has Never Before Been Possible
PALM
DESERT, Calif., MAR 07 — ZINK Imaging has unveiled a new way for
consumers to print and experience full color digital images without the
need for ink cartridges or ribbons. ZINK Imaging’s patented technology,
being shown for the first time at the DEMO 07 conference, shifts the
printing paradigm from an ink cartridge or ink ribbon, to a totally
ink-less system. Images magically appear on the ZINK paper without a
drop of ink.The key to the ZINK process is the ZINK paper, which is
protected by more than 100 patents and patents pending. Dye crystals
are embedded in the ZINK paper and are activated by heat from a ZINK
printer. The crystals then colorize, producing high quality,
long-lasting, durable, and affordable images.”At ZINK Imaging, we are
insisting on the impossible to deliver a revolutionary digital printing
experience to the world. ZINK technology does not require ink to print,
provides a magical user experience, can transform any device into a
printer, is good to the environment and most importantly, makes people
smile,” said Wendy Caswell, president and CEO, ZINK Imaging. “Our
unveiling at DEMO marks the completion of a long and intense road of
research and development that has resulted in a patented, innovative
printing technology that we are quite proud to deliver this year.”ZINK Enables a New Mobile Printing Market
The
ZINK printing technology will enable a new mobile printing market.
Later this year, ZINK Imaging’s partners will launch the first products
using ZINK technology. These products are designed to take printing
where it has never before been possible — into the pocket of every
camera phone and digital camera user. With ZINK, printing in the moment
becomes possible.”Each year, millions of pictures are taken by camera
phones and other devices but are never printed because consumers just
don’t know how or the process is too difficult. ZINK Imaging has
invented a whole new way of printing digital images through the simple
process of just adding paper. With this new inkless technology,
consumers can print anywhere they take a picture,” said Chris Shipley,
executive producer, DEMO. “DEMO has made its reputation by introducing
disruptive technology to the marketplace and ZINK is definitely one of
the most exciting new technologies we have ever had at DEMO.”ZINK
Imaging is the technology inventor and the manufacturer of the ZINK
paper. It is creating the future of digital printing with a network of
the world’s most innovative companies and global brands to
commercialize ZINK enabled products. ZINK Imaging will be announcing
several partnerships in the coming months.To learn more about ZINK
