The embrace of a cloud-based service system, which reduces paper usage and carbon emissions, also echoes artisJet’s commitment to ESG initiatives in 2023 and beyond.

One of the most common technical questions we received from users is whether there is any way to speed up the printing process.
Printing time is determined by a mixture of various factors, including the way the ink is ejected, the desired printing effects and, of course, the digital artwork itself (different graphics, real photo prints a>, print colorful patterns, complex illustrations designs, funny emojis / emoticons printing or just simple text printing).
The artisJet system offers two main ways to accelerate the printing process by altering the way the ink is ejected: through unidirectional or bidirectional setup and the number of print passes (4 pass, 8 pass or 16 pass).
The unidirectional and bidirectional way for reducing print time


What is the uni-directional printing and bi-directional printing and what are the differences between them?
Unidirectional – the ink is applied only when the carriage travels to one side;
Bidirectional – the ink is applied both ways along the carriage’s path.
How to set the print direction for each task? How to estimate the printing time for bidirectional setting? Have a look on the below videos.


As shown in the second video, switching from unidirectional to bidirectional will reduce the printing time by approximately half.
Note that the increase in speed is likely accompanied by a decrease in sharpness. Although the difference may not be noticeable unless compared side by side with each other (uni vs bi).
Cutting the print time almost by half with the 4 / 8 / 16 pass printing setup
What does 4 pass, 8 pass or 16 pass mean? The number of passes signifies the concentration at which the ink is ejected.
With higher ink concentration comes higher color density and sharpness, resulting in higher resolution.
The most commonly used settings are the 8-pass options, since they strike a balance between speed and quality, as tested by artisJet R&D team.
But dialing down to the 4-pass options can greatly reduce the printing time, in exchange for a slight drop in resolution.
This setting can only be adjusted in the RIP software. Watch the below video for the estimated time for different pass setting, as follows:
For the same printing task, you can print in 01:23 minutes with the 8 pass setup; print in 01:54 minutes with the 16-pass setup or reduce to 38 seconds printing time by choosing the 4 pass option.

Other settings, including feathering (dither) and embossed effects, also indirectly impact the printing time, but by changing those settings, the final effects are invariably and visibly changed as well.
In conclusion, the fewer pass times, the faster printing speed and printing time. But if you are not on a huge time crunch, unidirectional and 8-pass options are generally good choices, keeping the right balance between printing speed, printing time, printing resolution, and therefore printing quality.
Do you have questions on how you can better benefit from different settings in the artisJet printing hardware and software? Give us a shout here and let’s discuss more, any questions are welcomed.

If you are an advanced user or just setting up your artisJet printer, you might have seen this setting called “Halftone Dither” in artisJet Workstation, right?
And if you are puzzled by the technical term, let alone its functions, you are not alone. In fact, that is the norm, not the exception.
However, knowing what the halftone dither does could prove useful in some very specific scenarios.
So, what is halftone dithering setting for?
It determines the amount of “feather” or “partial overlap” each pass of the printed ink shares with the one immediately before and after it.
Put plainly, it serves as a valve controlling how sharp or smooth the transition between different parts of the printing is.




The default setting is F (full), which is capable of satisfactorily handling most printing requirements, because for the vast majority of tasks we do need to smooth out the transitions and ensure photorealistic quality of the artwork with no banding.
However, certain situations might arise that call for a divergence from the default setting.
S (small) is best suited for printing patterns involving distinct thin lines such as small text or dial meters. By minimizing the feathering of ink, the edges of the lines are crystalized.
The distinction becomes more pronounced as the lines get thinner.
Note that the effect can sometimes be perceived as not only sharper, but also lighter in color density. Experiment with different settings to see which combination works best for your project.
Check out this side-by-side comparison between the effect on solid color printing with F and S feathering respectively. You can clearly see the banding in the one with S feather.


But if your work hardly involves any demands for printing thin lines, just know that most people are very happy with the default setting (F).
Is there any function in your printing work and production in general that you have stumbled upon and haven’t use at all? Share your thoughts with us.

Original post from artisJet WeChat channel.

Since the official Covid control guidelines have been adjusted, there have been concerns regarding the potential risks if being infected.
As a proactive response, artisJet has introduced flexible workplace arrangements by providing the option of working from home for everyone.
In spite of this, some of our colleagues have shrugged off the possible perils and insisted on showing up at work, displaying a high level of dedication and professionalism.



Their presence has inspired all of us to be strong in this period of uncertainty and unease.



We appreciate everyone’s effort to confront the difficulties of balancing protection and production, while also stressing the importance of adequate protection to safeguard one’s health in this last stretch in the struggle against Covid-19 pandemic.


We are confident that we’ll get through this tail end of the epidemic quickly and successfully. Be positive.

ODORLESS & ENVIRONMENT FRIENDLY SOLUTION
Here is what artisJet Young does for your safety operation.
If you have some experience with UV printing, you might notice the smell if the printer is working in a relatively closed place. That is because the LED ultraviolet curing lamp will produce a slight ozone during production, usually the smell is light, and the amount is small. But in the actual production, the UV flatbed printer adopts a closed dust-free workshop for customers with relatively high production requirements. This will cause a large smell in the process of UV printing. That’s why we should always keep it in a ventilated or open place. Here is what artisJet young printer does for you about the "smell", but not just the "smell".
Strong Built-in LED UV System - The strong built-in LED UV system in FULLY ENCLOSED printer. All printing happens inside of the machine, with no air going directly out from the printer.
Eco-friendly ink - The ink system and the Built-in UV LED light source from the printer head dries the ink just milliseconds after it’s applied to the printed sample.
Professional Air Purification System - Equipped with a professional AIR PURIFICATION SYSTEM with several filters, the artisJet Young printer reduces emission of the pollutants and ensures that all usages of the printers are harmless. The Air Purification System keeps the air clean, with a wind of 150 CMB / Hour.
Safety RISC evaluation - RISC did an evaluation targeting the "smell” regarding the potential air emissions from the inks during the operation and other safety issue on artisJet printers. And artisJet has passed the certifications of RISC, RoHS, REACH regarding safety and ink quality. Those big supports for what might looks like a "small element" is one of the reasons that make artisJet Young printer safe to have. Not only in a workshop, in your living room for a home business, but also in a shopping mall with people walking around, or even for a school.




SAVING THE INVISIBLE COSTS
