Ant Encounters: Interaction Networks and Colony Behaviorby Deborah M. Gordon

How do ant colonies get anything done, when no one is in charge? An ant colony operates without a central control or hierarchy, and no ant directs another. Instead, ants decide what to do based on the rate, rhythm, and pattern of individual encounters and interactions--resulting in a dynamic network that coordinates the functions of the colony. "Ant Encounters" provides a revealing and accessible look into ant behavior from this complex systems perspective.Focusing on the moment-to-moment behavior of ant colonies, Deborah Gordon investigates the role of interaction networks in regulating colony behavior and relations among ant colonies. She shows how ant behavior within and between colonies arises from local interactions of individuals, and how interaction networks develop as a colony grows older and larger. The more rapidly ants react to their encounters, the more sensitively the entire colony responds to changing conditions. Gordon explores whether such reactive networks help a colony to survive and reproduce, how natural selection shapes colony networks, and how these structures compare to other analogous complex systems. I hope this book will help understand social behavior in other systems, to face our internet dominated society where decentralized however collective efforts are in a great demand.

Will HP Inc. Make It into 3D Printing?

W e h a v e b e e n hear ing a lot of HP's pending entry into the 3D printing industry. We know it will happen via its 2D printer and PC company, HP Inc, and its very own Mu l t i Je t Fu s ion printer.

HP Inc. i s led by Dion Weisler who wasted no time in making sure that e v e r y o n e k n e w that 3D printing was

going to be a major focus for the new, slimmer company. The new CEO first set up a standalone 3D printing division, and then appointed former senior VP of imaging and printing Steve Nigro to run it.

HP Inc. has already introduced a new desktop PC called Sprout that integrates an entire 3D ecosystem into it, and they also developed their very own MultiJet Fusion 3D printer that they hope to make a regular in the office. The full-color 3D printer will reportedly be the fastest high-quality commercial 3D printer on the market, and is priced considerably cheaper than their competitors.

The MultiJet Fusion technology uses a thermal inkjet array and binding agents to produce what they say are more reliable and precise parts. But the technology is untested, and until the first units start to ship in 2016 there really isn’t much to go on in regards to quality other than their word. And for a tech company, HP hasn’t been very good at making great tech for a very long time.

"2016 is going to be a very important year for HP Inc., either because they revolutionized full-color 3D printing, or because they failed spectacularly at revolutionizing full-color 3D printing. I have little doubt that in 2016 HP Inc. will make a lot of waves in the 3D printing industry, but if their technology isn’t up to snuff then those waves are going to be caused by a bellyflop," says 3DPrint.com contributor Scott J. Grunewald.

VOJD Partners Up with Akris to Produce Geometric 3D Jewelry for Paris Fashion Week

Futuristic Swiss fashion house Akris has teamed up with VOJD Studios recently to produce an interesting line of rings. Akris has always been known for its futuristic and architectural designs. This year, Albert Kriemlier, Akris’ Creative Director, partnered with Japanese architect Sou Fujimoto for his Spring 2016 collection.

Meanwhile, VOJD Studios is known for its diverse range of luxury 3D printed jewelry collections, such as electrical currents, DNA coils, and aeronautic engineering. Together, the team created a set of geometric 3D printed rings for Akris’ Spring 2016 Ready-to-Wear Collection. They were mainly inspired by Fujimoto’s Naoshima Pavilion, a large polyhedron built from white, stainless steel mesh.

This structure is currently on display in Japan as part of Setouchi’s International Art Festival. The rings are made of silver and polyamide pieces and were created by SLS 3D printing technology. They are also the first 3D printed pieces to be featured in Akris’ looks. However, as 3D printing is on the rise, there may be more pieces to make the runway. 3D printing allows for unique wearable products at lower costs with shorter lead times. Designers such as Karl Lagerfeld and Iris Van Herpen have already showcased 3D printed pieces in their lines.

MARKET SEGMENTS



The 7 Major Events in 3D Printing 2015Last year was a good time for some in 3D printing and a very bad one for others. Some trends continued from the previous year, while others were completely fresh. The Motley Fools has put together a list of the seven major events that marked the year.

First among these was the sales slump for the Replicator – the desktop line of Stratasys, made by MakerBot. The slump was attributable to a fault in the extruders on the 2014 edition of the Replicator. Stratasys suffered a significant draw in revenues plus a goodwill impairment on MakerBot of between $436 and $476 million.

Another of the key events of the year is also about Stratasys and again regards an impairment charge, this time to its enterprise business. The company announced late in the year that it will need to write off between $730 and $770 million in this department.

The second event was rather a trend, and a bad one, especial ly for Stratasys and 3D Systems. The macroeconomic situation has forced businesses to be more cautious about investing in 3D printers, so a lot of them are biding their time, which has hit printer makers’ sales.

2015 also saw the launch of a new 3D printing technique – the Continuous Liquid Interface Production – developed by a startup called Carbon3D. The technology, like stereolitography, uses liquid resins to create an item, but unlike it CLIP can work with a wider variety of polymers and, according to Carbon3D, makes these items not just much more quickly but also much more reliably. The tech definitely has a respectable disruption potential and is worth watching.

Back to the corner of the big guys, last year 3D Systems parted ways with its chief executive Ari Reichental. Reichental had attracted a lot of criticism over the last few years mostly with relation to the shopping spree the company went on, which failed to bring in the returns investors hoped for.

One other piece of news that shouldn’t really surprise anyone is that Apple announced its intentions to enter the 3D printing space by filing for a 3D printer patent.

Apparently, the only unique feature of their printer is that it can color an item while it is being printed. Time and Apple’s market research will show how sharp an edge this is.

Finally, around the end of 2015 3D Systems announced it is withdrawing from the consumer market. There has been a lot of analysis through the year that this market is not yet ripe enough for 3D printers to become a mainstream technology and it seems 3D Systems has heard the message. It discontinued the production of its Cube, the sole consumer desktop printer it made and said it will focus its attention and resources on initiatives that will bring in profits more quickly.

2016 Could See a 3D Printing RevolutionThe start of a new year, like the end of an old one, is a traditional time to make predictions about industry trends. 3D printing is no exception: here are the trends and developments to watch for this year.

Speed has always been one of the major hurdles for the wider adoption of 3D printing. This year the market may see some ground-breaking new entries on the market, most notably HP’s Multi Jet Fusion printer. But HP is not the only high-profile tech players preparing for a foray into the 3D printing field. Autodesk is also working on a 3D printing, as is Toshiba.

There are also hosts of startups eyeing the 3D printing market and they all know that the faster printers they make, the better chance of success they have. Of course, precision is also an important consideration, so it would be interesting to see which companies will be the first to combine speed with precision the best.

Metal printing is shaping up as one of the top priorities on the 3D printing agenda. Plastics are all very good for household items and toys, but 3D printing has not been dubbed a technology of great promise for the aerospace industry because of plastic filaments. Aircraft manufacturers need reliable tech that can make complex shapes from metal quickly and cheaply. It’s as simple as that, and it’s also true for carmaking, to mention just one.

Alcoa, the US aluminium giant, last year announced it’s working on raw materials specially tailored for 3D printing.


MARKET SEGMENTS




3D Systems, which has been in the doldrums, all but exiting the consumer 3D printing market, is also focusing on metal printing. Then there are the startups developing all new metal printing methods that would also be interesting to keep an eye on.

Finally, there are the questions of color and size. Aside from speed, the ability of 3D printers to create multi-color objects is still a rarity. HP claims its MJF machine will be able to print with more than one color simultaneously, so all we can do is wait for its official launch and see if it lies up to this promise. Other companies are also working on multi-color printing but for now it seems speed trumps color in terms of priorities.

As for shapes, according to Fortune this will be the year of the Golf Ball Rule, attributed to one 3D printing software developer Materialise. The Gold-Ball Rule states that if something is small enough to fit in a gold ball, then it’s “ripe” for 3D printing. This rule refers mostly to high-value items, such as jewelry and medical devices and implants. It is this market segment that could become the major driver for 3D printing development in 2016.

3D Systems to Exit Consumer Printer Market3D Systems, one of the biggest players in the 3D printing field, announced it will discontinue the production of its flagship desktop printer the Cube, as part of management efforts to boost profitability in the short term. This effectively means the company will be leaving the consumer 3D printer market.

3D Systems has had a difficult couple of years, with an influx of new startup competitors and declining sales, which hit its profits and share price. This has also been true of the other giant in the industry, Stratasys. Following the announcement about the discontinuation of the Cube, 3D Systems’ shares shed 9%, then another 4% on the next day, December 30, and on December 31 the stock ended trade at $8.69.

Medical Applications, Metals Are Best Investment Opportunities in 3D Printing3D printing has clearly a growing industry where investment opportunities abound yet investors should be aware that even in 3D printing now everything that sparkles is a diamond. Take the biggest 3D printer manufacturers, for

example. Stratasys and 3D Systems have suffered a huge slump in their profits and share prices, and have gone for serious layoffs and operations streamlining in order to return in the black. Until that happens, however, it will be smarter to keep away from manufacturers. There are a lot of new entrants into this market and for the time being the smart choice would be to watch them closely until it becomes clear who will be the future leaders in the field.

One indication on these future winners is the area of application they focus on. 3D printing companies focusing on metal printing and medical applications are a pretty safe bet: these two areas currently have the greatest potential for growth, according to various market analyses and forecasts. And speaking of metals, 3D printing materials as a whole are a good investment area. Material manufacturers are quick to respond to market demand for a greater variety and investors would do well to take advantage of the fast growth in the materials segment.

3D printing software makers are also a good bet at the moment. Previously, 3D modeling software has been difficult to use if you’re not a software engineer but the last year has seen companies like Autodesk and Dasault Systemes compe up with much easier to use solutions. This is a natural consequence of 3D printing tech makers increasingly targeting the consumer market. The demand for user-friendly software will continue to grow, so the companies with the capacity to offer it will be a good investment choice.

Best Desktop 3D Printers for 2015Using a combination of 3D Hubs’ rating system, Amazon.com reviews, other third-party review sites, reader feedback, and the experiences of the team at 3DPrint.com, here is the list of the best and most reliable 3D printers that hit the market in 2015:

CES 2016: 3DPrintler Launches Comparison Shopping Website for 3D PrintingA website to compare prices of 3D printers called 3DPrintler will be launched at CES 2016. The plan is to compare 3D printers of big-name companies including Shapeways, Sculpteo, i.materialise, and makexyz. The website will also include 3D printing news and insider tips. 3Dprintler hopes to become the biggest database for 3D printers. 3Dprintler’s CEO, Michael Golubev, said, “3DPrintler is like Kayak for 3D printing. Don’t waste time searching multiple sites, hoping to find a deal. Consumers and businesses need an easy way to make their 3D designs come to life and that’s what 3DPrintler offers. There [are] over 270 materials available across all our partners and we hope to grow more. We really think 3Dprintler is the future of 3Dprinting for everyone. “

Working the website is easy and only requires 3 steps. First, upload the STL. Next comes the selection. Finally, compare the prices.

The website was f irst showcased at the Consumer Electronics Show. This year, the show was held on January 6-9 in Las Vegas, Nevada. More than 3,600 exhibitors were scheduled to showcase.

Paris Hosts First 3D Printing ExhibitionThe first exhibition dedicated to 3D printing will be held in Paris this spring, at the Center for Design. The event will show all the aspects of the technology and its influence on other industries, the economy and our everyday lives.

Titled 3D Printing, the Factory of the Future, the exhibition will be on for three months, and will include items ranging from fashion, jewelry and consumer items such as glass frames and furniture, to food and architecture, plus design and research-related products.

Israel's First 3D, Functional Printing Center Launched in JerusalemThe Hebrew University of Jerusalem today launched a 3D and Functional Printing Center, Israel’s first center with a focus on research in 3D and functional printing.

Functional printing adds functions such as light emission or movement to a printed product and helps advancements in 3D printing by enabling the formation of new functional

MARKET SEGMENTS




structures, such as printed robots, new plastic solar cells, military and medical equipment, radiation and light detectors, smart windows, sophisticated drug pills and even human organs.

The new center’s director, Prof. Shlomo Magdassi, said:

"The 3D and Functional Pr int ing Center wi l l be an interdisciplinary hub catering to researchers and students from across the university's scientific disciplines. In addition to chemists and physicists who are already in the field, the Center will invite researchers from biology, medicine, agriculture and computer science to move into this sphere. By encouraging scientific collaborations between researchers from different disciplines, I expect we will see new breakthroughs based on their synergistic expertise.”

The 3D and Functional Printing Center at The Hebrew University will function as a central “printing lab” that provides accessibility for Hebrew University researchers to the printing technologies and infrastructure needed to perform high-level research in this field. The center’s equipment spans numerous technologies such as inkjet printing, digital light processing, fused deposition modeling, powder printing and laser sintering.

MBot3D Showcases Improved Flagship Printer at CESMBot3D, a company making FDM 3D printers, introduced at the Consumer Electronics Show this year its upgraded flagship machine, the Grid II. The company said that unlike many of its competitors who focus on more attractive design and detail improvements, it has decided instead to improve the functional aspects of its machine.

MBot3D specifically targeted the printing plate and the printhead of its machine. Now the Grid II features a removable magnetic printing plate with a three-induction tripod to make it more stable. The company also introduced an automatic compensation system that ensures flawless leveling during the printing process, avoiding warping of the item.

The company also improved its printheads by introducing a new nozzle that features a dual cooling fan. This fan ensures the stable release of the filament and also prolongs the motor’s lifetime, MBot3D explained. The improved printheads also include a filament sensor, which alerts the user when it’s about to run out of filament, which reduces

the likelihood of printing failures.

Polaroid – the Latest Entrant into 3D PrintingPolaroid has become the latest entrant into the 3D printing field, showcasing its very own printer, the ModelSmart 250S at this year’s edition of CES. The FDM desktop printer has a maximum print area of 250x150x150 mm and print speeds ranging from 20 to 100 mm per minute, which is reasonable enough. Resolution varies from 50 to 350 microns. The printer works with Polaroid’s very own set of 1.75 mm filaments that come in nine different colors. The filament cartridge features a smart chip that alerts the user of the printer when the filament is about to end. The printer features a self-calibrating extruder as well as a Wi-fi camera that allows the user to keep an eye on the printing process remotely. The machine uses Windows and Mac compatible software and will hit European markets later this year. Polaroid did not disclose any information about its price, however.

ReFlow – Promoting 3D Printing and RecyclingMaking 3D printing filaments from plastic waste is by no means new. However, most of the initiatives take place in developed countries. ReFlow is different – the social enterprise aims to help waste pickers in developing countries make a living and at the same time raise awareness of 3D printing in these countries.

As part of its efforts, the company has developed a cheap extruder, which costs less than $1,000, that can turn plastic waste into 3D printing filament. ReFlow has already established a number of small-scale production facilities for such filaments in many emerging markets.

The enterprise believes emerging markets are to play a big role in the global expansion of the technology and by helping matters along it will also help waste pickers earn a better living, since plastic filaments for the 3D printing industry cost a good deal and part of the not inconsiderable profits can be passed on to the pickers.

MakerBot Replacing Flawed 3D Printing ProductThe Smart Extruder, a MakerBot product that has received much heat in the past because of its flaws, is being replaced. Meant to make Replicator printers easier to use, the Smart Extruder is supposed to detect when filament is running out and make printers more reliable.

However, MakerBot has received many customer complaints about the Extruder jamming extremely easily and breaking down too quickly. MakerBot has been accused of tricking investors into thinking that these problems were not as severe, so now the company promises that their soon-to-be released Smart Extruder+ has been extensively tested and can work for 700+ hours at a time, with most of them being able to work for 1200+ hours. MakerBot is also doubling the length of the warranty for this product from 3 months to 6 months.

The Smart Extruder+ will be slightly more expensive ($199 instead of $175), but will only cost $99 for those buying a new printer or who already own a fifth-generation Replicator. Units will begin to ship on January 18th.

Bing Predicts 3D Printing Will Become Mainstream in 2016Every year Bing produces a wide range of predictions wh ich cover every th ing f rom the most popu la r technological breakthroughs to who will win certain sporting events. Bing’s head of consumer marketing Kevin Stagg reports that the company uses a series of advanced algorithms to make these predictions intelligently. Almost all experts agree that 3D printing is skyrocketing and will certainly become mainstream very soon, and Bing confirmed that by putting it at the top of their “Tech trends to watch” list for 2016.

As a search engine, Bing has access to a lot of useful data and can use the most common searches in order to make their predictions. For example, if a large number of people search for hotels in Budapest, then Bing can safely predict that Budapest will be a popular travel spot for 2016. The same goes for 3D printing, but it is more difficult to tell if these searches are just out of interest in the subject matter or if they will result in actual sales of 3D printers. However, most market analysts agree that the 3D printing market is set to enlarge at an enormous pace.

The coming months will tell if Bing’s predictions are correct – they have been eerily correct in the past, so it seems that 2016 will be a prolific year for 3D printing indeed.

3D Scanners Revolutionize Crime Investigations3D printing is all the rage these days but there is another branch of 3D imaging tech that is gaining growing prominence, and this is 3D scanning. 3D scanners are increasingly being used by law enforcement to reenact a crime scene, to visualize every little detail of it without changing it.

This helps investigators in more than one way: it allows them to see the crime scene from different vantage points without needing to be there, and it also helps them with evidence collection by revealing these different angles.

What’s more, by preserving the crime scene as it was at the time of the crime, it saves investigators an enormous amount of t ime and lowers the risk of overlooking something because you’re racing against the clock.

One of the leading manufacturers of 3D scanners, FARO, says their devices can capture images with an accuracy of just 2 millimeters, up to 1,000 feet in each direction, and display the images in full color.

FARO’s scanners can also be used for face and body part reconstruction, which is invaluable in cold case investigations. In addition, they can be used for what are called virtual autopsies – scanning the body before the actual autopsy is performed in order to preserve the texture of different ridges, wounds, bruises, etc. on the body, which isn’t possible with 2D pictures.

3D Printed Ceramics Hold Promise for Aerospace3D printing technology used for the creation of complex shapes from ceramics could help major advancements in hypersonic airplanes and microscopic devices, a team of researchers from HRL Laboratories in California claims.

The team has created a whole new 3D pr int ing technology for ceramics, using resin instead of powdered ceramics, which is what the other existing methods for this material involve. Objects 3D printed from ceramic powders, however, are not very solid due to the porosity resulting from non-melted particles. With the resin this risk is eliminated and the HRL team says the items 3D printed using this technology have all the positive features of

ceramics that make them so suitable for the aerospace and the high-complexity device industries.

Among these features are high strength, hardness, and resistance to abrasions, corrosion, and heat. These characteristics make ceramics particularly good for a wide range of applications in engineering and 3D printing has made a lot of these possible because it allows the material to be made into complex shapes.

3D Printed Gold Mesh Can Make Touchscreens More SensitiveA new 3D printing technique involving gold nanoparticles can help make touchscreens even more sensitive than they already are. The technique was developed by Swiss researchers is based on inkjet technology and uses gold particles in a solvent as a printing material. The particles are deposited by a tiny printhead and when the solvent evaporates, the gold particles arrange themlselves in a gridlike structure with walls thick between 80 and 500 nanometers. These walls are highly conductive of electricity, which improves the sensitivity of the touchscreen. At the same time, they are more transparent than the standard indium tin oxide screens, which improves overall performance, the research team says.

3D Printing Shows How Trilobites LookedTri lobites are the most numerous group of ancient organisms in the fossil record. They lived hundreds of million years ago in the oceans and are a staple exhibit in museums around the world. Yet until now we only knew how they looked from fossils and drawings. Now, a professor from the University of Chicago has 3D printed trilobites, utilizing the technology to show every detail of their appearance. The trilobites are printed in metal and in plastic resin.

Professor Alan Drummond, human geneticist and biochemist, first drew the trilobites he was going to 3D print by hand, then used Inkscape to turn the drawings into a basis for 3D modeling. Then he had the shapes printed on a selective laser sintering printer from Formlabs. For the metal shapes, he used the 3D printing services of

Shapeways. The trilobites have been done in silver, bronze and steel.

Boy Gets 3D Printed NoseA 14-year-old boy who got severely burned on the face when he fell on a live power line has become the latest in a growing number of happy patients who have benefited from the versatility of 3D printing. The boy got a 3D printed nose, which has helped restore his sense of smell and taste, two of our main senses.

The feat was accomplished by two surgeons from Mount Sinai and Oxford Performance Materials, a company specializing in 3D printing neurological and orthopaedic implants. This is the first successful 3D printed nose implantation in the US, which resulted in a fully functional olfactory organ.

Chinese Desktop 3D Printer Market to Surpass US Market in 2016, IDC Experts PredictIn 2016 China's 3D printer market shipments will reach 160,000 units, surpassing the US market,’ says Mo Minyi, an analyst with IDC China. “However, in terms of income, the US market will remain ahead of China, as the Chinese 3D printer market growth rate over the coming five years is primarily being driven by low cost desktop machines. In contrast, a relatively higher emphasis is placed on industrial 3D printing and high-cost, high-end 3D printers in the US market, where a relatively high number of business users is turning to 3D printing.”

亲爱的读者朋友们，

春节好！

过年了，咱要回家。

中华民族向来以勤劳知名于世。国内，每天清早，天还未亮，便有无数

的年轻人奔波在上班的路上；国外，每逢节日，城市里万巷无人，中国人的

店铺却正常营业，灯火不息。

但不管如何辛劳，每年总会有一段时间，几乎所有中国人都会放下手头

的工作，拿上行囊，跨越千山万水回到家乡，与家人团聚，共度春节。每年

的这一时刻，中国的公共交通将迎来最大的挑战，短短一个月，要承担数十

亿人次的交通压力。外人为之咋舌，我们自己却习以为常。

人，孰能无情？不管平日工作有多忙，我们终究是恋家的。所以在这一

刻，让我们尽情享受节日安宁吧！

回家！

光电成像技术在泛印产业中的过去与未来东莞惠能办公耗材有限公司刘树果

Past & Future of Photoelectric Imaging in Extensive Printing Industry

引言

光电成像技术已广泛应用于电视、

手机及泛印设备中，应用于电视和手机

的光电成像技术是将图像显示在二维的

屏幕上，而应用于泛印设备的光电成像

技术是把定格的图像转印在记录介质上，

最普遍的做法是印在纸上。

本文主要介绍应用于泛用打印设备

上的光电成像技术的成长过程及发展趋

向。

本文所述的泛印设备是指激光打印

机、复印机、激光数字电子印刷机等产

生印品的装备。

应用于泛用设备的光电成像技术的

特点是：图像光信息作用在光导体上，

形成静电潜像，再把潜像显现出可视图

像并转印到记录介质上的过程技术，也

称硬拷贝技术。

一、硬拷贝光电成像技术的发展史

最早把光电成像技术用在静电复印

机上的是美国人卡尔逊，1938 年他就申

请了发明专利，1959 年美国施乐公司利

用卡尔逊的专利技术制造了第一台静电

复印机。

它的成像过程是：用照像镜头摄取

光信息，在 Se 鼓上形成静电潜像，让带

电的墨粉粒子吸附在潜像上，则成为可

视图像（文字），再将可视图像转印在

纸上，最后用热定影方式，使墨粉颗粒

熔于记录介质表面。

这个过程是用了照像术和印刷术的

思维结合的理念。通常把此过程归纳为：

充电—曝光—显影—转印—定影—清洁，

并以此循环。

这个过程是利用了三个关键光电器

材完成的，分别为：光学信息转换器件（镜

头激光扫描）；光导体（Se 鼓、OPC 鼓、

Si 鼓）；显影材料（墨粉、载体）。

五十多年来，光电成像的技术的发

展与演变就是围绕这个成像过程和关键

材料的技术而不断进行创新而进步的。

（1）二十世纪六十年代

在美国、日本、荷兰等发达国家的

跨国公司，相继参与了卡尔逊成像方法

的研究与开发。当时光学系统采用扫描

光学镜头，将图像信息传递给光导体，

光导体除采用硒材料之外，各厂商为了

获取自主专利，还开发出硫化镉、氧化

锌等光导鼓、光导带等产品，充电方式

主要是应用光晕放电原理对感光导体充

电；显影方式采用双组份瀑布显影，定

影方式采用电热板辐射定影。当时涉足

光电成像技术开发生产的企业，主要有

美国施乐、IBM 公司；日本的佳能、理

光、小西六（现称柯尼卡美能达）等公司。

主机以落地式复印机为代表机型。

一九六四年，我国在国家科委主导

下成立了天津复印研究所，开始引进先

进复印机样机及研究复印技术的关键材

料。

（2）二十世纪七十年代

此时光电成像技术发展的主要方向

是在静电模拟复印机上开展以提高图像

质量为目标的技术攻关，基本解决了曝

光光源频谱宽度及强度的均一性问题和

感光体对全频谱感度的均一性要求；磁

辊显影方面解决了静电的边缘效应；磁

性墨粉的发明为解决载体寿命难题找到

编者导语

今天我们为大家奉上一篇行业科普文，作者是东莞惠能办公耗材有限公司董事长刘树果先生。作者在成像行业内深

耕数十载，不仅积累了深厚的技术功底和行业经验，更亲身参与和见证了中国泛印产业发展道路上的诸多重要事件。作

者撰写本文主要是为了介绍光电成像技术在国内外的泛印产业内的发展过程和现状，并预测其未来的发展趋势。文章较长，

请静心品读。

刘树果（前右一）于 1993 年 9 月向江泽民总书记介绍湛江佳能显影粉生产及技术时的情景

专题文章2016 年 02 月总第 142 期


出路。

热辊定影和显刷定影的发明为整机

小型化找到方向，复印机开始由落地式

向台式机转向，找到了降低复印机成本

的方法。当时已经知道，整机成本与机

器重量成比例。这些技术为复印机的普

及及发展奠定了技术基础。

但困扰生产商的问题是整机的可靠

性，因为感光鼓、显影器等部件是有寿

命的，而客户往往把图像质量下降归罪

于整机的质量，使售后服务的工作量非

常大。

七十年代中期美国 IBM 和日本佳能

等公司已经成功研发了激光打印机。

中国在七十年代才起步开发生产静

电复印机，代表机型是上海海鸥牌复印

机，与其配套的显影材料墨粉是上海油

墨厂杨海蛟先生开发的双组份显影剂。

当时的上海复印机厂、武汉复印机厂、

天津光仪厂（后改为复印设备公司）都

是采用引进样机测绘的方式，用改型后

的复印机上市替代进口复印机，为后来

引进先进技术打下基础。

回顾过去，六七十年代国际上主要

以提高图像质量和降低成本为目标开展

整机及关键件的研发。技术创新表现在：

光导体以研究 Se 鼓为主，重点研究硒碲

合金、硒砷合金鼓；墨粉技术攻关重点

是配方及工艺；整机以提高可靠性和降

低故障及排除故障方式上开展创新设计，

整机积木试设计成为后来的流行方式；

光机电、鼓、粉相互配合技术成为关键

攻关内容。

（3）二十世纪八十年代

以模拟复印机为代表的由光、机、电、

光导体、墨粉生产技术组成的集成技术

已成熟。小型台式机市场呈暴发式增长，

曾年增 20% 以上。数字式激光成像技术

与模拟复印机的成像技术对接，开发出

激光打印机、传真机等系列产品。成像

卡盒（Cartridge）首先应用于 PC/FC 复

印机，为解决无故障运行找到良方。尔后，

卡盒技术应用到激光打印，促使惠普与

佳能长期合作，后来把全球打印机市场

扩大到占有率 60% 以上，OPC 感光体成

为光电成像设备的主流器件。

笔者认为，八十年代是光电成像技

术成熟期，光电数字技术和卡盒技术把

光电泛印行业带入兴盛时代奠定了基础。

八十年代中期，中国做出由中央牵头联

合引进复印机的机、鼓、粉“三合一”

关键技术的决定，成立了联合对外谈判

领导小组（笔者以技术顾问身份参加了

谈判活动），最后布点在上海、天津、

武汉、邯郸、湛江设立生产复印机工厂。

上海以合资设立方式引进了美国施

乐的技术，生产模拟静电复印机装配技

术，及配套的硒光导体鼓和双组份的墨

粉生产技术。

天津以技贸结合方式引进了日本佳

能公司的采用硫化镉光导体的复印机装

配技术，及硫化镉光导体和单组份墨粉

生产技术。

武汉和邯郸也是以技贸结合方式分

别引进了日本东芝和小西六（现称柯尼

卡美能达）的硒光导体复印机装配技术

及硒光导体（硒鼓）和双组份显影墨粉

生产技术。

而广州和桂林引进了日本理光的硒

光导体复印机的装配技术，当时没有引

进配套的光导体（鼓）和墨粉生产技术，·1

但而后来广州又引进了 OPC 光导体的生

产线，而非理光的技术。

湛江在天津引进佳能“三合一”复

印设备、鼓、粉、生产技术之后，以技

贸结合方式引进了 OPC 的复印机装配生

产线和合资生产配套的墨粉生产技术。

在当时的引进技术中，湛江引进的 OPC

复印机 NP1215 算是先进的了。当时的

全球范围内，采用 OPC 光导体的复印机

代表着技术的发展方向已经得到了公认，

因为它拥有环保和成本低的优势。

（4）二十世纪九十年代

光电成像泛印技术在九十年代至力

于节约环保产品开发生产，其典型实例

是：在小型低速的复印机和打印机上，

充电辊取代电晕充电，杜绝了主机运行

中臭氧的产生；热定影采用即时定影膜

结构，取代了热辊定影，由于采用定向

即需加热，提高了热利用效率。

同时，制造墨粉时采用低溶点树脂，

使热容量降低，实现低温定影。激光数

码技术广泛用于泛印设备，使印品图像

质量完美。

笔者认为九十年代是技术进步的健

康时代。它的标志是以节能环保为目标，

实现了器件和材料的结构性升级。

（5）二十一世纪初期

二十一世纪开始之后，光电成像技

术专利内容上出现了以商业利益为主导

的技术开发倾向，其原因为：多年来，

主机制造企业通过主机销售让利方式争

夺市场份额，再利用垄断耗材市场的手

段回收利润；一台打印机和复印机一年

要用多个成像卡盒，使废弃的成像卡盒

成为现代办公室的主要电子垃圾。于是

摧生了靠收集废卡盒，通过拆解、更换

易损件的卡盒再生产业。中国广东珠海

就是典型的再生卡盒的耗材之都。

也就是从此时起，原装厂商与再生

耗材企业开始了专利斗法。原厂告再生

企业侵权专利，再生耗材产业称“减排

有理，再利用无罪”。原装厂家开始研

究如何避免再生耗材企业涉足垄断市场，

研究开发“设障”技术，比较典型的案

例是：佳能设计了卡盒与主机连结的“万

向节”联结方式，用专利武器阻止再生

卡盒入市；多家原装厂商设计识别芯片，

阻止再生卡盒与主机对接；机械法制造

的墨粉（比如用已开发成功的节能涡流

粉碎机而制造出类球形彩色墨粉）是节

能环保的典型，原装厂商由于不能垄断

该技术而保护市场，倒退到用高耗能、

有排污的化学法生产，因为这样可用自

己的专利阻击竞争对手。

再生耗材厂商为了应对原厂商的垄

断，也采用模仿、修改、创新等方式申

请应诉型专利，这些专利多数都不是原

创性的，只是为了说明自己没有侵权原

厂专利而已。

“混战”、“敌对”成了新世纪的特点。

时至今日，原装厂商还在想着消灭再生

专题文章 2016 年 02 月总第 142 期


耗材企业这些竞争对手，而再生耗材厂

商打着节能环保的旗帜向客户提供廉价

实惠的产品，并已获得发展中市场的认

可。

有一点笔者没有想明白，为什么原

装厂家不能与再生生产者合作呢？原厂

把再生厂纳入自己的集团系统，让再生

厂承担对回收的卡盒拆解、修复、再利

用的良性合作方式不是更好吗！双赢比

敌对更有利于环保和节能，也会更容易

得到社会的赞赏。

二、对未来的预测

美国有一个工程师预测 5 年内目

前流行的打印机将消失，他认为：由于

pad 和智能手机以及 WIFI 的普及，人们

阅读时不再依靠通过纸载文字与图案了

解信息。现在与七十年前儿童上学挎小

黑板的时代有些类似，但不同的是，孩

子们书包里装的是 pad 和手机。对此我

们不能视而不见。“柯达胶卷”的消失

应引起我们的思考。

实际上从 2013 年开始，激光打印产

品的数量已开始出现负增长。某跨国集

团曾放风要卖掉或分拆打印机及耗材生

产项目，韩国 LG 把墨粉生产线卖给湖北

一家公司，就是他们根据对未来预测而

所做的提前准备。

在 2013 年南京的耗材专委年会上，

笔者曾提到这个问题，让大家在上马新

项目要冷静，结果不到一年，一个专业

生产墨粉原料的树脂厂就下马了，而且

今后的形势可能还会更加严峻。

笔者认为：用于办公室的低速复印

机与打印机不会消失，但会减少；喷墨

打印机会有发展，因为水溶性墨水对纸

张再生有利，而且成本低，以前困扰它

发展的分辨问题现在已有突破性进；技

术成熟的光电成像技术将会转到印刷行

业，成为印刷业结构性升级的主要技术

之一。2015 年五月份，在东莞举办的国

际印刷展会上，我们可以看到原来打印

和复印生产商巨头们都展出了高速、高

图像品质的（电子）数码彩色印刷机，

而且主要服务于广告和包装行业，因为

广告和包装行业的大市场局面已成为不

可争议事实。

今后可能会出现五花八门的喷墨式

打印机，有的能直接把标签印在货物上，

像盖章一样方便；有的能在体积庞大包

装物上印上标示文字或图像，操作人员

像农夫在农田打药一样，手握打印机，

身上背着墨水箱，在起重货物或建筑物

上按设计程序“作画”。

电子印刷机今后将向小型化方向发

展，产品价格会逼近中高速复印机。由

于印刷机印品质量远高于复印机水平，

现今的高速复印机（每分钟 80 张以上）

因图像分辨率受墨粉粒径的限制，不可

能印出与使用油墨的印刷品一样细腻的

图像。因为我们使用的机器是在地球引

力的重力场中运行，墨粉粒子需要受重

力约束在电场中定向运动，如果墨粉粒

子粒径小于 5μ 左右，将表现出“失重”

状态，在电磁场中会出现失控。所以目

前干法光电成像设备使用墨粉的墨粉粒

径多在 6μ 以上，但墨粉粒径太大则图

像分辨率和层次将下降，墨粉消耗量也

会上升。

要想获得近于印刷印品的品质，必

须使用粒径更小的成像粒子，一般需 3μ

左右，所以电子印刷机在卡尔逊成像原

理基础上，已采用了电泳成像方法，让

粒径为 3~4μ 的墨粉粒子混合在高绝缘

液态油之中，用粘滞力控制墨粉粒子带

电以提高其失控作用，其原理为显影辊

在与墨粉相互作用下吸附在辊上，并使

其带电，进而使带电墨粉粒子在油中游

离到感光鼓的潜像上呈可见图像。

现今的电子印刷机，利用高感度的

传感器件和高速计算机技术让感光体与

显影辊“互动”，以控制墨粉吸附到鼓

上的数量，而且这一过程可以在瞬间完

成，用墨粉的数量来决定印刷的预期色

度。说得形象一点就是，让高感度的色

度传感器，监视游离到鼓上的墨粉数量

是否到了预定的色度，如果不够，就告

诉控制系统再继续加墨粉，直到达到要

求为止。

总而言之，光电成像技术还会在发

展中创新，它不会只在传统的打印机与

复印机的产业中固守收缩，而且不仅将

在泛印行业和广告及包装行业中应市场

对产品的需要而得到应用与发展，还会

在未来的其他领域中表现其技术的完美

性及成熟性。

IDC 最新发布的《中国打印外设市场季度跟踪报告（2015 年

第三季度）》显示，2015 年前三季度中国打印外设市场出货总量

约为 1,002 万台，同比下降 3.8%。其中激光产品出货总量约为

551.6 万台，同比下降 6.6%。针式打印机出货总量约 233.3 万台，

同比下降 1.8%。而喷墨产品出货总量约 234.2 万台，在整体市场

负增长的背景下，实现同比增长 1.3%。

IDC 中国打印外设市场研究经理王莎娜认为，从 2015 年前三

季度数据来看，喷墨打印机是打印外设市场中唯一同比增长的产品，

2015 年第三季度的同比涨幅更是达到了 5.8%。喷墨市场表现突出

的原因是喷墨打印机在不同行业领域的应用不断拓展。另外，大容

量墨盒产品的不断成长也带动了喷墨市场的增长。

由于喷墨打印机在单张打印成本和彩色成像方面拥有一定的优

势，2015 年喷墨打印机商用部分也出现了增长的趋势，喷墨产品

在不同行业的应用不断拓展。如移动执法办公、医疗、餐饮、服务

等行业都越来越多地使用喷墨打印机及相关解决方案。

微信打印机在 2015 年快速成长成为拉动喷墨市场的最新驱动

因素。如今微信已成为移动互联网时代最具影响力的软件之一，用

会越来越多地出现在人们的生活中。因此微信打印机不仅仅带动照

片喷墨打印机的销量增加，同时也可以带来照片打印解决方案的发

展，推动喷墨市场向前发展。

2015 年前三季度，大容量墨盒机型的出货量在整体喷墨市场

中占比近 35%。继爱普生之后，兄弟、佳能也分别在中国市场发布

大墨仓机型，惠普也即将在 2016 年上市相应产品。相比激光打印

机，大墨仓产品在单张打印成本上的优势较为明显。越来越多的用

户会选择喷墨打印机，尤其是在家庭办公和中小型企业用户市场中，

目前喷墨打印机的出货量在这一细分市场中所占比例约为 27.4%，

比 2014 年增长 1.8 个百分点。相信随着大墨仓市场的不断增长，

更多的商用办公领域用户会选择喷墨打印产品。

在以消费者需求为导向的时代背景下，未来打印外设各厂商必

定会通过技术改变和创新来满足用户不断变化的需求。越来越多用

户开始关注打印成本，整体喷墨市场的发展前景将更加乐观。

尽管惠普公司已经一分为二，但是

它们并没有停下进军 3D 打印的脚步。专

攻 3D 打印领域的 HP Inc. 之前已经发布

了多射流熔融（MJF）3D 打印技术，近

日又发布了一个简略的技术白皮书，对

这项技术进行了更详细的介绍。

对于 MJF 技术，目前已知的是该设

备主要依靠两个不同的喷墨组建打造全

彩的 3D 零部件，其中一个组件主要负责

喷射打印材料从而形成对象实体，另一

个喷墨组件负责喷涂、上色和融合，使

部件获得所需要的强度和纹理。简单来

说，该技术的工作方式就是：先铺一层

粉末，然后喷射溶剂，同时还会喷射一

种用于细节处理的材料 detailing agent，

以保证打印对象边缘的精细度，最后还

需要在上面施加一次热源。

为保证打印品的强度，传统的 3D 打

印技术往往需要牺牲精度和表面光洁度，

而惠普的 MJF 技术将不会有这样的问题。

它的打印品无论是强度还是表面质量，

都能媲美注塑成型的产品。他们计划通

过利用自己应用了多种粘合剂和固化剂

的专利 3D 打印技术和 MJF 热喷墨阵列

来实现这一目标。由于借鉴了该公司现

有的分辨率极高的 2D 热喷墨技术，MJF

技术的打印喷头释放材料的分辨率可以

从 600dpi 到 2400dpi，也就是 42 微米

到 11 微米的范围内喷射材料。

惠普公司表示，这将使其打印速度

比选择性激光烧结技术（SLS）、熔融沉

积成型技术（FDM）快 10 倍，而且不会

牺牲部件的精细度。

使用 MJF 技术，同一个物体将能够

融合多种不同材料，比如坚硬的注塑材

料，有弹性的橡胶材料，以及导电材料。

惠普希望通过这项技术可以制造可控变

量的物体，甚至令同一个 3D 打印物体中

出现完全不同的机械和物理属性。

据了解，该全彩 MJF 3D 打印机可

能不会在 2016 年上市，但是公司将先发

布一款单色 3D 打印机，该机器使用与

MJF 相似但略有简化的技术。

IDC: 中国本地 3D 打印机市场出货量将在

2016 年超越美国由于中国政府视 3D 打印为实现“中国制造 2025”计

划的一大推动力，从 2014 年开始，3D 打印机销售量开始

在中国有所增长，2014 年出货量超过 3.4 万台。IDC 预计

2015 年的出货量增长率将超过 120%，达到 7.7 万台。其

中增长动力主要来自桌面 3D 打印机，即单价在 5000 美

元以下的型号。由于中国政府近年推动 3D 打印教育的普

及，因此推动了桌面 3D 打印机市场的增长。

从出货量看，桌面 3D 打印机占中国 3D 打印机市场

的 90% 以上。不过，由于市面上有较多价格相对较低的

FDM 桌面机，导致桌面机的市场收入与专业级 3D 打印机

相比差距较大，专业级 3D 打印机市场收入占中国整体 3D

打印机市场的 78%。在专业级 3D 打印机市场中，收入比

例占较大份额的是金属打印机及带喷射技术和打印精度较

高的打印机。由此可见，中国市场对高质素打印机仍存在

需求。随着中国政府公布的“十三五”规划及推行“中国

制造 2025”计划，中国将大力推动培养创意人才及制造

业转型改革。中国整体 3D 打印机市场将会维持较高增长

率。预计到 2020 年，该市场年复合增长率将达到 43%，

出货量将超过 44 万台。

IDC 中国分析师莫敏仪指出：“2016 年中国市场的

3D 打印机出货量将达到 16 万台，超越美国市场。不过，

从市场收入来看，美国市场将依然领先中国。这是由于中

国 3D 打印机市场在未来五年的增长主要是由价格较低的

桌面 3D 打印机带动。相反，美国 3D 打印市场相对比较

重视工业应用，而企业用户更偏向于采用价格较高的高端

3D 打印机。”

随着政府积极推动中国制造业转型改革，以及面向如

航天航空、高铁等高端制造业的发展，IDC 相信，未来这

些行业对高质量的 3D 打印机的需求将会继续带动专业级

3D 打印机的技术发展及市场增长。3D 打印机厂商需要针

对企业用户，向他们提供解决方案，将 3D 打印结合到现

有的设计及生产流程中。与此同时，关注海外市场的中国

3D 打印机厂商可考虑提升他们在当地的售后服务及相关

支持，提升海外买家对产品的兴趣及信心。

莫敏仪总结道：“中国 3D 打印机生产商不能单靠价

格突围而出，而应该深入了解及研究如何为企业客户提供

细分市场方案，体现 3D 打印的价值，增加自身竞争力。”

3D Systems 澄清：停产 Cube 并非撤出

消费级 3D 打印市场2015 年 12 月 28 日，3D Systems 宣布售价为 999

美元的消费级 3D 打印机 Cube® 将停产。此举反映管理层

计划将资源和战略方案侧重到近期发展机遇和盈利能力。

专为桌面工程、教育和专业应用设计的 CubePro®3D 打

印机，其业务仍将继续。

3D Systems 公司将继续出售库存内的 Cube 打印机。

Cube 客户仍可通过公司官网 3dsystems.com 网站上的一

个新商务平台得到持续的支持和材料购买。消费级商务平

台 Cubify.com 网站将于 2016 年 1 月 31 日关闭，之前通

过此网站出售的零售产品包括手机壳和首饰将停止销售。

管理层相信更专注于制造应用、提供新的、更强的制

造系统将可以推动更高的用户接受度、投资收益率和收入。

消费类产品作为此转变的一部分，管理层预计当季销售额

将受到的影响不足 2% 且盈利能力将提高。此外，管理层

预计在第四季度会产生约 1900 万美元至 2500 万美元的

费用主要用于去该产品库存和兑现相关采购承诺。

不过，3D Systems（中国）公司强调指出，3D

Systems 采取以上措施并不代表该公司将退出消费市场，

该公司依旧是消费级 3D 打印市场的领头羊。据该公司透

露，在即将举行的 CES 2016 展会上，3D Systems 投入

巨大，展位面积达到了前所未有的 420 平米，并会借此机

如今，您进入该公司的官网首页，即可看到他们发布的停

止运营声明（点击进入）。

“如今的低成本 3D 打印机市场太过拥挤，竞争如此

激烈，以至于像我们这样的小型专业公司根本无法扩张。”

他们在声明中说。“但是我们并不是破产，我们没有任何

未支付债务，我们只是选择停止当下的业务，转而专注于

其它活动。”

这份声明还提到了 RepRapPro（中国）公司，并称

后者是一家完全独立的公司，因此不受此决定的影响，将

继续正常运营。针对一些已经订购该公司产品的顾客，该

公司宣称他们将继续出色地履行所有的订单，并提供服务、

支持和满足保修请求，直到上述日期为止。

RepRapPro 公司是由 RepRap 公司与 eMAKER 公司

共同设立的，该公司与 3D 打印世界中著名的 RepRap 式

开源 3D 打印机有着很深的渊源。RepRapPro 公司的创

始人之一 Adrian Bowyer 就是历史上第一台 RepRap 式

3D 打印机的发明人。十年前，还在英国 Bath 大学工作的

Bowyer 设计出了一款具有自我复制能力的 3D 打印机，这

款 3D 打印机的大部分部件都是可以 3D 打印出来的。这

就是 RepRap 式 3D 打印机。Bowyer 开源了这款机器的

所有软硬件资料，使其设计迅速传播，影响到了全世界一

代的 3D 打印爱好者和创客。

Bowyer 的合作伙伴——eMAKERsho 公司的创始人

Jean-Marc Giacalone 同时也是 Huxley RepRap 3D 打印

机的创造者。他跟 Bowyer 一起，为 3D 打印技术的更加

经济、更便于获得做出了重大贡献。

“我们是一家开源公司，这意味着我们所有的设计、

软件源代码、文档都在我们的网站和 Github 上免费提供。

所有这些资料在未来仍将继续存在。”该公司在其网站上

称。

Printr 公司发布免费 3D 打印切片软件

Katana近日，荷兰 3D 打印软件公司 Printr 宣布推出一款新

的应用程序 Katana。这是一个免费的切片引擎，让创客们

能够轻松地将自己的 3D 模型转化为 3D 打印机编码指令。

Printr 是一家来自阿姆斯特丹的初创公司，2015 年秋

天的时候该公司还获得了 82 万美元的种子资金，以开发

在线 3D 打印生态系统 Formide，以及一款可以将 3D 打

印机与该生态系统连接的 USB 流媒体装置 The Element。

如今，随着 Katana 的发布，该公司正在扩大其产品线以

方便处于 3D 打印各个环节的创客们。

所谓的切片（Slicing），即是将数字 3D 文件转换成

3D 打印机的打印指令的过程。Katana 作为一款免费的桌

面应用程序能够帮您基于特定的参数选择优化刀具路径，

从而将 3D 模型转化为指令。

据了解，该切片应用程序考虑主要几个因素，比如喷

嘴直径、打印速度和层高等来创建一套目标 3D 打印机的

指令，以决定该走什么路径，喷嘴应当以什么样的速度打

印才能获得最佳的打印效果等。一旦参数被设定，Katana

就会生成相应的指令并将其存入一个 .Gcode 文件，该文

件可以通过 USB 或者 SD 卡直接存入 3D 打印机。

Printr 推出的这个应用软件既适合那些没有经验的新

手，也能够满足那些已经玩过了好几台 3D 打印机，对于

切片比较熟悉的创客们，因为 Katana 提供了一个用户友

好的界面，而且功能丰富，各级用户都可以使用。此外，

该软件还自带了一个数据库，里面预装了超过 160 种 3D

打印机的设置和超过 50 种材料型号。

当被问及 Katana 与其他免费 3D 切片软件的区别时，

Printr 公司 CEO Douwe Bart Mulder 解释说：“作为 3D

打印爱好者，我们知道打印效果是由一台调校好了的 3D

打印机和超过 80 个参数在一个切片软件中调整的结果所

决定的。但是，我们真不知道为什么它要弄那么复杂。

Katana 证明了 3D 打印的技术过程本来可以更加清爽，而

且也不会损失任何质量。”

除此之外，Katana 还与 Cura 兼容，并可以在 Mac

OS X 和 Linux 操作系统里运行，而且该公司很快也将推

出 Windows 版的 Katana。这些软件都可以在 Printr 的网

站上免费下载。

彩色复印机鼓芯磨损如何处理？

在使用一段时间后，彩色复印机的一

些配件和耗材都会有一些毛病，比如说感

光鼓使用时因与刮板摩擦而慢慢损坏。如

果出现这种问题该怎么办？

若数码复印机感光鼓在使用期间因与

刮板摩擦而使感光层逐渐损坏，可用一种

感光鼓抛光清洁剂反复涂擦感光鼓表面3-4

次（不要让感光鼓表面留有清洁剂），然

后装回鼓架即可继续使用。用此方法可润

滑感光鼓，减少感光鼓与刮板摩擦，延长

感光鼓的使用寿命。

数码复印机感光鼓使用一段时间后会

出现复印效果不清晰的情况，这是因为感

光层己被损坏，处理方法也是用一种感光

鼓抛光清洁剂反复涂擦感光鼓表面 3-4 次

（不要让感光鼓表面留有清洁剂），然后

装回鼓架即可使用。

专业技术师傅提醒您，鼓芯、刮板更

换时要注意如下事项：

(1) 买来的新 OPC 鼓芯一般均包裹了

黑纸，取鼓时应揭开标贴，打开黑纸后再

将鼓取出，请勿将鼓直接从黑纸中抽出，

以免擦伤鼓面；

(2) 取鼓、装鼓过程中，轻拿轻放，勿

使异物碰触或勿用手直接触摸 OPC 鼓的表

面；

(3) 安装鼓芯、刮板时，在刮板上涂上

适量的墨粉，按正确方向将鼓芯转动一周，

创新解决方案以及对于安全性的专注。特别的是，IDC MarketScape 报告中

明确提到三星对于新兴云计算和移动技术的使用、直观的硬件产品和超出打

印范畴的增值服务。其中包括业务流程管理、移动打印、移动截图（mobile

capture）和数字签名服务，所有这些都拓展了三星的 IT 服务组合。此外，三

星还因其正在全球范围内构建的打印解决方案合作伙伴联盟而受到赞扬。

IDC 同时指出三星有能力对其他业务领域中的专业知识和创新进行利用，

还认为随着消费者在办公环境中影响力的不断增强，三星可以从其在消费电子

产品上的优势中获益。

“三星的主要优势在于应用程序的开发和创新解决方案的使用，而这些解

决方案往往涉及不止一条产品线。” IDC MarketScape 称，“当一些竞争对

手还在努力消除解决方案中的安全隐患时，三星对于安全性的专注和快速的开

发显然更能吸引潜在客户。”

“工作流管理服务市场的厂商将继续发展产品来解决客户在工作流处

理中遇到的挑战。”IDC 欧洲打印管理服务和文档解决方案研究咨询经理

Jacqui Hendriks 表示。“西欧市场中的知名厂商已经逐步采取措施更加积极

主动地满足客户对于不同功能和特定行业工作流程的需求。”

MarketScape 还显示，三星专注于新产品及解决方案，具有移动功能和

直观界面的多功能打印机将像智能平板电脑和智能手机一样变得更为常见。

人民币将成津巴布韦法定货币

RMB to Become One of Zimbabwe’s Legal Tenders

北京确认将免除津巴布韦 4000 万美元的债务后，津巴布韦宣

布将把人民币作为该国的法定货币。

津巴布韦财政部长韦帕特里

克·奇纳马萨于 12 月 21 日宣布，

为寻求增加与中国的贸易，津巴布

韦将在 2016 年正式把人民币作为

法定货币，与美元等外国货币一样

在该国流通使用。。

奇纳马萨称，人民币将在“中国与津巴布韦的商贸中发挥作用”，

并表示津方寻求增加同中国的贸易往来；该国央行行长约翰·曼古

迪亚正在同中国人民银行协商，以扩大人民币在津巴布韦的使用。

此前，津巴布韦 2009 年发生恶性通胀后放弃了本国货币，于

是该国开始使用美元、南非兰特等多种外国货币；去年，该国决定

将人民币纳入国内法定货币篮子，但未批准人民币在市场正式流通。

据了解，津巴布韦因人权记录被此前的西方贸易伙伴孤立后，

中国目前是津巴布韦重要的贸易伙伴。

为应对西方的孤立，执政多年的津巴布韦总统穆加贝采用了“向

东看”政策，与东亚国家打造新的联盟关系，并加强已有的联系。
