What is Inkjet printing and what is DOD (Drop on Demand)?
Inkjet card printing is a type of card printing that recreates text and digital images by propelling droplets of ink onto the card. HID FARGO INK1000 offers an inkjet card printing capability.
• There are two inkjet printing methods. These are Continuous Inkjet (CIJ) and Drop on Demand (DOD):
• As the name implies, continuous inkjet technology ejects drops continuously from the printhead. These drops are then either directed to the printing surface as printing drops or to a collector for recirculation and re-use. This methodology is very old and not typically used in card printing.
• Drop on Demand technology ejects drops from the printhead only when required. HID FARGO INK1000 inkjet printing uses the Drop on Demand method.
• There are two approaches to the DOD method. These are Thermal DOD and Piezoelectric (or Piezo) DOD.
• Thermal DOD essentially relies on heat and vaporization to force ink from the print head to the substrate. HID FARGO INK1000 inkjet printing uses Thermal DOD.
• Piezoelectric DOD uses an electrical charge to force precise amounts of ink onto the substrate.
