ABSTRACT:
A method for manufacturing an imaging drum for use in applying ink to the imaging drum as the drum rotates. The present method possesses utility in that previously unsuitable low cost materials for use in creating an imaging drum characterized by rigorous specification and tolerance requirements adequately perform when manufactured in accordance with the present method. The present method finds use in the digital printing and imaging industry where successful repeatable and accurate printing requires precise knowledge of the characteristics of the print engine mechanical motion and printing materials which include printing media (e.g., paper, vinyl, film, wax or other thermally imaged substrates that typically include emulsion coatings thereon) to promote consistent interaction with printing media marking materials such as ink, toner, or various printing ribbon resin-based compounds, etc. In order to create high resolution, photorealistic output from such digital print engines, the precise location of each dot or picture element (i.e., pixel) must be predictable and therefore, in a drum-based imaging print engine, the drum should possess ideal physical characteristics.
