1. Introduction<br />
Products that are printed using<br />
Laser, Copier, Inkjet and Dot-Matrix<br />
technologies can generally be divided<br />
in<strong>to</strong> two categories: A4 sheet fed<br />
products and continuous fed products<br />
(i.e. Electronic Data Processing). This<br />
technical brochure will give you an<br />
overview of our two product ranges,<br />
plus general recommendations on<br />
the usage of our products <strong>to</strong> optimise<br />
results.<br />
A4 format printing has experienced<br />
tremendous growth over the last<br />
few years, thanks in the main <strong>to</strong><br />
the growth in personal computers<br />
and the installation of the various<br />
allied printers that are very much a<br />
part of life at work and at home. The<br />
growth of colour inkjet printing is a<br />
direct result of lower costs, increased<br />
printer speeds and increased print<br />
resolution. The comparative increase<br />
in colour printers and the decline of<br />
monochrome printers is due <strong>to</strong> higher<br />
consumer expectations and a demand<br />
for higher, professional quality print.<br />
The demand for the processing and<br />
application of variable data using<br />
continuous printing techniques is still<br />
high, particularly within the business<br />
segment for tracking purposes. While<br />
dot matrix technology is declining,<br />
there is growth in the high-speed laser<br />
printing. This requires products that<br />

can be converted and printed reliably<br />
at high speeds, taking in<strong>to</strong> account<br />
the critical fanfolding and refanfolding<br />
processes.<br />
Of course, the consumer’s expectation<br />
of converting and print quality can<br />
only be met by using consumables<br />
that are compatible with the relevant<br />
print technologies and with products<br />
that continue <strong>to</strong> keep abreast with<br />
the continuous development of these<br />
printers.<br />
Fasson is a key player in these<br />
market segments, offering the widest<br />
possible range and state of the art<br />
products - thanks <strong>to</strong> intensive product<br />
development, a well-equipped<br />
applications labora<strong>to</strong>ry, unique<br />
patented technologies, and excellent<br />
service platforms on our standard and<br />
speciality products.<br />
The ranges encompass both paper and<br />
fi lmic faces<strong>to</strong>cks. All products have<br />
been developed <strong>to</strong> refl ect optimal print<br />
resolution, ink and <strong>to</strong>ner anchorage,<br />
aesthetics and strength for processing.<br />
The paper range contains uncoated<br />
papers, suitable for basic printing,<br />
through <strong>to</strong> high quality coated papers<br />
which deliver the highest possible<br />
print resolution for optimum print<br />
performance. The fi lm range contains<br />
a range of <strong>to</strong>p coated fi lms with a<br />
variety of fi nishes specifi cally designed<br />
for either laser or inkjet printing.<br />
All products are designed with<br />
adhesives that offer the optimal<br />
balance of tack and adhesion with low<br />
adhesive bleed. Both permanent and<br />
removable adhesives are available.<br />
Our products are developed with<br />
backing liners that ensure excellent<br />
layfl at characteristics and good<br />
product consistency, for optimal<br />
conversion and problem-free<br />
processing in modern printers.
