Abstract: An inkjet printing apparatus for printing on a substrate, such as a flexible packaging material, includes at least three inkjet heads including a first inkjet head, a second inkjet head, and at least one further inkjet head. At least one drying unit includes a first drying unit arranged opposite a first drying location which is located between the first and second inkjet location, the first drying unit being configured for physically removing liquid from ink applied by the first inkjet head. At least a first drum and a second drum, where the first and second inkjet locations as well as the first drying location are located on an outer surface of the first drum; and the at least one further inkjet location is located on an outer surface of the second drum.

Abstract: A digital printing process for inkjet printing on a recording medium using ink including a carrier liquid and a colorant, in particular on a recording medium which is configured not to absorb the carrier liquid or to absorb only a portion of the carrier liquid during the inkjet printing. The process includes the steps of: jetting ink on the recording medium; bringing one or more continuously rotating members in rotational contact with the jetted ink on the recording medium such that a colorant-poor portion of the ink is adsorbed to the one or more rotating members and a colorant-rich portion remains on the recording medium. The colorant-rich portion includes more colorant than said colorant-poor portion. The process further includes continuously removing said colorant-poor portion of the one or more continuously rotating members.

Abstract: A measurement apparatus for determining a measure for the solid content of a liquid toner. The liquid toner includes a carrier liquid with marking particles, and the solid content is the ratio of the mass of the marking particles divided by the mass of the liquid toner. The measurement apparatus includes a measurement space for receiving liquid toner. The measurement space includes at least one hydrostatic pressure sensor configured and arranged for measuring data representative for the hydrostatic pressure caused by the liquid toner at least one predetermined position in the measurement space. The measurement apparatus also includes a controller configured for receiving the measured data and for determining a measure for the solid content of the liquid toner based on the received data.
