solvent based ink printers

Solvent based ink printers are able to print images as well as text on a wide range of mediums. This is how they do that: with specially made inks and a solvent solution. It is a widely-used printer in various enterprises. Such typefaces are most often used for signage, label or any other advertisements which we usually see in store houses and street signs. Another reason why people are so hyped over the printers is that they can print on solid and durable printing materials such as vinyl, tarpaulin (a form of heavy cloth), or canvas. This feature makes them very universal; meaning they can be applied versatile to different printing applications.

Solvent-based ink printers have their pros and cons, as is true with any machine. That is one of the good things about them - they are incredibly powerful and can print on almost anything you can imagine. The printers use an ink that would dry almost immediately upon contact, along with the feature of ensuring it does not smudge or smear under any condition (not even when wet). This is very important especially for prints that have to endure over time. Also, the print cost of these machines is not so high making them bestsuited for businesses who are into heavy printing. One of the downsides to these printers, however is that they require excellent air circulation. This makes them release toxic gases, which can be dangerous to breathe. Additionally, the special ink jet inkthese printers uses is pretty pricey and if you do not keep up with cleaning the printer often it can start clogging because of this type of printer as well formatting issues.

How solvent-based ink printers compare to other types of printers

By contrast, we are talking about solvent-based ink printers; These are different to the other types of printers which you may be more familiar with - such as water-based inks and dye-sublimation. Inks for water-based printing dry so rapidly and do not adhere as nice as those printers which use solvent-based inks. In contrast, dye-sublimation printers function otherwise. They apply the ink to a special paper that releases it onto an object (e.g. jackets). This method is a reasonably accurate procedure which requires heat for proper functioning. Solvent-Based Ink Printers these types do not need high temperatures but can fill on the substance and are printed unlike both. This makes them more versatile when it comes to different types of printing.
