Researchers Create a 1,000 Page-per-minute Printer

September 27th, 2006

Two Israeli researchers at The College of Judea and Samaria have come up with a new type of inkjet printer dubbed the JeTrix, which they hope will be to the inkjet printer what the ink-jet was to dot-matrix devices. Moshe Einat, one of the engineers involved, described his invention as being “like an ‘ink-emitting screen,’” in the sense that ink would flow point by point — and all at once — instead of waiting for the cartridge to fully scan line by line — theoretically reaching a speed of 1,000 pages in a single minute. Einat says that the printer should begin commercial production within two years, but don’t expect them to come as freebies with your PC purchase anytime soon.
