Harlequin to power Think Laboratory’s aqueous inkjet press

Print Solutions

A new generation of aqueous inkjet printers from Think Laboratory, that will print onto plastic film for applications such as short run food packaging, will be powered by the Harlequin RIP. Harlequin is developed by Global Graphics Software.

Think Laboratory has licenced Harlequin because of its speed and the fact that it can produce optimal output quality thanks to Global Graphics’ new multi-level screening technology which was launched earlier this month and will be on show at drupa 2016.

Kaku Shigeta, director of Think Laboratory, said: ‘It is essential to use the optimal RIP technology available to improve print quality. The Harlequin RIP will give us that output quality and it has a long track record in digital printing and with quick technical support in Japanese.’

The Harlequin Multi-Level Digital Screening Engine varies the amount of ink delivered from the inkjet head in any one location on any type of media to overcome common problems such as streaking and mottling that are frustrating many press manufacturers.
