While lasers and inkjets dominate market share, there are a number of other important print technologies. Solid ink has a significant market presence, being capable of good-quality output on a wide range of media, while thermal wax transfer and dye sublimation play an important role in more specialist fields of printing. Dot matrix technology remains relevant in situations where a fast impact printer is required – but this technology’s big disadvantage is that it does not support color printing.
