INKJET PRINTING
Abstract:
The present disclosure describes methods of printing, textile printing systems, and printers. In one example, a method of printing can include jetting an ink composition onto a substrate, the ink composition including an evaporable solvent, a colorant, and a non-curable polymeric binder. The ink composition on the substrate can be exposed to electromagnetic radiation having a wavelength from 350 nm to 420 nm. The exposure of the ink composition can begin from 0 ms to 600 ms after jetting the ink composition. The electromagnetic radiation can heat the ink composition to evaporate a portion of the evaporable solvent from the ink composition within 5 ms to 500 ms after the beginning of the exposure.
