Heats ink to form bubbles that eject droplets
|
Office printers, product coding, packaging
|
|
Piezoelectric Inkjet
|
Uses piezo crystals to push ink droplets
|
High-resolution graphics, industrial marking
|
|
Continuous Inkjet (CIJ)
|
Constant ink stream with electrostatic deflection
|
High-speed coding on moving products

|
Drop-on-Demand (DOD)
|
Ink released only when needed
|
Labeling, barcodes, variable data printing
|
For industrial marking in India (e.g. on cartons, bottles, PCBs), CIJ and TIJ are most common due to speed and cost-efficiency.
Key Features of Inkjet Printing
- High Resolution: Up to 1200 dpi for crisp text and graphics
