Quality Prints

Hi-Touch Imaging Technologies has introduced the HiTi 640PS direct digital printer. Direct means you don't need a computer--there are two slots for digital camera memory cards, and the printer reads Compact-Flash, SmartMedia, Memory Stick, Secure Digital, Multimedia,

and IBM Micro Drive cards. Image editing is done on a controller that allows cropping, rotating, resizing, contrast/brightness and hue/saturation controls, as well as auto setting choices. The prints are produced by a dye diffusion thermal transfer method in which three separate layers of color (yellow, magenta, and cyan) are heat set beneath a final, clear protective coating. This produces up to 16.77 million true colors in a 403 x 402 dpi resolution. To get an equivalent quality in an inkjet, you would need 6,400 dpi. The prints are 4" x 6", and you can also get sticker prints in 1" x 1", 4" x 4", and 4" x 2" size. You can choose matte or glossy print surfaces with the controller. www.hitouchimaging.com
