Seems like the point of this article missed a lot of people entirely, since they are so fixated on consumer inkjet printers. That's a very specific case of inkjet printing, but inkjet technology is way more than that.

For example continuous inkjet printers are used to label packages of many items you buy every day. There's also research about inkjet printing wearable electronics etc. None of which has a lot to do with HP.

Thank you for making this point.

A lot of the comments here read like a hobbyist programmer saying “C++ is dead, I haven’t written any C++ in my projects for years and since I’ve switched to Rust, I’ve never looked back”.

Yes, I stand by this analogy because inkjet is that important. The market is doing great and technology is improving at an impressive rate.

To build on your example of continuous IJ presses: more and more applications have lately been switching to drop-on-demand, as those printheads continue to get better (especially piezo IJ) and cheaper (especially thermal IJ).
