Silverbrook Research was founded in 1994 in Sydney, Australia.

Silverbrook Research is an independent contract research and development company.

The 'Memjet' companies are international companies that own the Memjet technology. The Memjet companies supply Memjet components and subsystems to printer manufacturers. This typically involves printheads, driver chips, software, ink, and precision mechanical subsystems.

Memjet is a new inkjet technology with a printhead which spans the width of the page, and prints the entire page in a single pass. Memjet produces photo-quality prints at high speeds, with low printer costs and a low cost per page. Memjet is a universal printing technology applicable to nearly all current printing markets, as well as some new markets for which there is no technology currently available.

No existing printer company or any other user of our technology has any stake in Silverbrook Research.

Very high-speed, photo-quality printing at low printer and page costs.

Typically, more than 10 times faster than other technologies at the same price point. As Memjet technology covers a wide range of markets, the actual speed varies with the market, but some examples are:

• A photo printer that prints 4" x 6" photos in 2 seconds.
• A desktop printer which print full-page (A4 / Letter) color at 60 ppm.
• A wide format printer which prints 1600 dpi photographic images at 7650 sfph.
• A cellphone printer that prints a credit card size photo in two seconds.
