Inkjet technology is one of the commonly used technologies in the printed-electronics field. The primary issue regarding the usage of inkjet technology as a printed-electronics tool is the printing resolution; therefore, to print complicated patterns of precise dimensions, we developed software that can convert a CAD file into a bitmap image. Moreover, as a bitmap image is not comprised of physical dimensions, its resolution needs to be defined in terms of pixel distance to print a rasterized bitmap image. In this study, we investigated the effects of pixel distance and dot size on printing resolution; based on the experiment results, we concluded that the printed dot size should be used to determine the optimal pixel distance. Lastly, we also propose inkjet printing procedures for bitmap images.
