Essential Elements of inkjet printing: The essential elements of a textile inkjet system are:
- Inkjet Printer: Inkjet Printer with one or more inkjet print heads, generates the streams of microscopic ink droplets and directs them to the substrate.
- Computer: Computer system for data processing.
- Software: Including printer drivers, raster image processing (RIP) and color management systems to convert computer based designs in to the electronic signals which controls the scanning inkjet head and machine. These systems can also ensure faithful and reproducible results with different batches of fabric, and provide a total interface with the other components of a digital design, sampleing and production environment.
- Textile Substrates: Often in the digital world called media, woven or knitted fabrics are suitable for inkjet printing using appropriate inkjet inks.
