Kodak is reshaping the inkjet production printing landscape with its groundbreaking
Kodachrome Inks, setting new standards in the industry. These innovative inks, specifically
designed for presses utilizing Kodak Ultrastream Continuous Inkjet Technology, deliver
unparalleled color rendition, image stability, and intricate detail.
The remarkable capabilities of Kodachrome Inks play a pivotal role in empowering the
recently launched Kodak Prosper Ultra 520 Press, which leverages the cutting-edge
Ultrastream Technology to achieve exceptional offset-quality prints at remarkable speeds
across a diverse range of applications.
Kodachrome Inks elevate color vibrancy and consistency to unprecedented levels across a
wide array of substrates. The key lies in Kodak's proprietary pigment micro-milling process,
which generates pigment particles typically below 50 nanometers, boasting an
extraordinarily narrow size distribution.
The water-based, low-humectant composition of Kodachrome Inks renders them more
sustainable than conventional solvent-based inks. These eco-friendly inks are free from PVC
and phthalates, ensuring a safer environment for both individuals and ecosystems. In
combination with Kodak's exclusive range of printable water-based optimizer agents
(primers), Kodachrome Inks can be employed for printing on virtually any substrate. The
optimizer agents enhance ink receptivity, ink adhesion, rub resistance, and overall image
quality on various paper types, plastics, and films.
Jim Continenza, Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Kodak commented,
"Kodak has been pioneering inkjet production printing for 56 years, and our new
Kodachrome Inks are designed to deliver outstanding print results and maximize productivity
and value for our customers. Kodachrome Inks, together with our high-speed Ultrastream
Inkjet Technology and optimizer agents, create efficient digital solutions for cost-effective
printing of a broad range of applications. This enables customers to shift more work from
traditional printing processes such as offset to digital, opening up new opportunities for
increased revenue and profits."
Kodak continues to spearhead innovation in the printing industry, propelling it towards a
future defined by exceptional performance and sustainable practices.
