What is GelSprinter technology?
The hybrid technology between laser and inkjet printer offering the optimal balance and maximization of print speed and image quality at affordable cost under the business environment.GelSprinter offers you high speed printing by combining three innovative technologies: Liquid Gel, Wide Heads, and the Belt Feeding System.

About GelSprinter Liquid Gel
Gel Sprinter is an economical alternative to laser printing that utilizes a uniquely formulated viscous ink to address the shortcomings of traditional low viscosity inks. There are two types of low viscosity ink: Dry-based, which soak into the paper, spread, dry slowly, and produce dull images, and Pigment-based which dry faster that Dry-based inks, but not fast enough to provide the quality necessary for duplex printing. GelSprinter Liquid Gel has virtually none of these limitations. They are thicker, Pigment-based inks that dry instantly on contact with paper.

About Wide Print Heads
GelSprinter print heads are three times wider that those of conventional inkjet printers. Each print head nozzle is durable, allowing ink to be ejected at greater pressure, which prevents clogging. These extra-wide print heads move in tandem for greater coverage per pass, delivering superior speeds over a much larger printable area that any other inkjet printer. Unlike laser printers, the GelSprinter color printers do nt need to fuse print images to paper, allowing for faster warm-up, recovery, and first-prints, and increased overall productivity.

Belt Feeding System
Traditional inkjet printers use rollers that can leave sheets of paper unsupported, causing them to ripple and jam. Double-sided printing can also cause problems. By contrast, the GelSprinter series of color printers used high-speed electrostatic attraction to hold each sheet firmly in place on its path through the machine, eliminating misalignment, blurring, and other problem and other problems that accompany registration. Additionally, GelSprinter uses a sophisticated Belt Feeding System that practically eliminates paper jams and allows speedy double-sided printing over a laser-like print area GelSprinter printers maximize page ‘real estate’ without compromising image quality or output speed.
