Abstract

In response to a highly competitive marketplace, Xerox has enabled 100% inspection of inkjet cartridges in production. Tests are performed to assess both mechanical function-ality and image quality. In-line inspection processes need to be highly automated, efficient and reliable in order to balance the desire for high quality output and a high level of customer satisfaction with time and cost considerations.This paper will discuss the automated inspection systems and methods, the print quality tests, and the data handling that have been integrated into the print head manufacturing process to improve part quality.
