Dye Sublimation - Hi-Touch photo printers employ dye diffusion thermal transfer (D2T2) technology to deliver an exceptional 16.77 million possible true colours. When heat is applied the dye is converted into a diffused gas and is absorbed by a special receiving layer on the paper. The print head in the Hi-touch photo printers is capable of producing 256 levels for each colour (cyan, magenta, yellow) and combines these colours to create a possible 16.77 million true colours. The result is outstanding quality photo prints.
Continuous Tone Printing - Hi-touch photo printers differ greatly from tradition inkjet printers, especially in the quality of the photo print. Hi-touch printers produce a high quality continuous tone output, in comparison to the half tone printing of inkjet printers. When creating a grey scale, from black to white, a continuous tone printer will show all shades of grey in between the black and white by actually printing them. The inkjet printer will use a series of black dots placed closely to white dots to trick the eye. When magnified, the difference is very noticeable, wheras the dots can be seen within the inkjet print the dye sublimation output is clear and sharp.
Magic Coating - A special overcoating seals the dye into the paper protecting the image from UV rays, fingerprints and even water. There is no smudging, running, or blotching because the prints are dry and ready to touch as soon as they leave the printer.
PhotoDesiree - Hi-Touch's software package accompanies all of the printers within the Hi-Touch range. It allows users to enhance and modify images using the easy automatic adjustment facility or by using the professional editing functions. It provides great versatility by facilitating the printing of calendars, greetings cards, stickers, passport photos, business cards and bookmarks.
Borderless Prints - Hi-Touch printers use 4x7 inch perforated edge photo paper. After printing the perforated edges are easily and quickly removed leaving 4x6 inch prints. As no cropping or trimming is required, your photos are ready for framing or for the photo album.
