Description:
Impressive, high-quality color documents are the result of Alps' new patented Micro Dry printers. This next-generation printer provides crisp resolutions up to 2,400 dots per inch for both monochrome text and photo-quality color output. Micro Dry dots are constructed from resins that result in an extremely fine edges. Laser dots are formed from toners that usually "powder," forming tiny satellites around the dot itself. Inkjet dots are wet droplets that are absorbed into the paper so that individual dots' sizes increase. The Alps MD-5000 can form variable-size dots from 10 to 40 microns. The Micro Dry printer utilizes a Micro Energy Controller chip that sends precise data to the Micro DOS print-head. It then creates the patterns in units of 10 microns (for 2,400 dpi) to 40 microns (for 600 dpi). A special water-free dry ink pigment forms a four-layer coating of thin film that is 3 microns in thickness. The resin ink does not permeate the media, but fixes firm on the paper surface. Dots will not smudge, the resin is waterproof and the pigment is fade-proof.
