Abstract
Systems and methods for digitally printing images onto substrates are provided using digital inks and catalysts which initiate and/or accelerate curing of the inks on the substrates. The ink and catalyst are kept separate from each other while inside the heads of an inkjet printer and combine only after being discharged therefrom. The system produces high-quality, high-resolution images on substrates that may not normally receptive to low-viscosity digital inks.
