A solid-ink printer is a laser-type printer that uses solid-wax inks melted into a liquid before being used. Instead of directly jetting the ink onto the paper as ink jet printers do, solid-ink printers jet the ink onto a drum. Better color registration is achieved by first transferring the ink to the drum and then to the printer, because the drum can be more tightly controlled than moving paper.
