About Newprint Legend UV Curable Inkjet Printers
The Newprint series of inkjet printers is now available from Orbotech following the Company's recent acquisition of New System S,r,l.

The UV curable inks available for use in Orbotech systems, including the popular Xaar® brand, have many advantages over traditional thermal inks in terms of lower cost, better control, superior coverage and no waste disposal requirements.
