Three tips on choosing the best industrial ink company.

Posted on November 11, 2011 by Independent Ink

When it comes to selecting an industrial ink company, consumers have many options. By keeping a few tips in mind, you can help narrow your choices down to the most reliable company with whom you can do business.

1. Research team

Seek out companies who have an internal research team. While many claim to understand the composition of different ink products, the presence of a research team is often a testament of a company’s comprehensive knowledge of the product they are selling. Often times the researchers and/or scientists on these teams can help develop revolutionary products that improve the ease and quality of routine print jobs.

2. Product inventory

Look for companies who offer broad product inventories: they can offer total solutions for your printing needs. Just because you use one specific printer brand now does not mean it won’t change in the future. Finding companies who are knowledge about various brands – in both printers and inks – can help lessen any stress that may accompany changes in your printing requirements.

3. Industry-specific knowledge

From aerospace to medical and food and beverage, every industry has a unique set of printing requirements. Different inks and printers are needed to accommodate special needs, and the industrial ink company you choose should understand the specifics of your industry. With their industry knowledge, they can make product recommendations that will save you time, money and energy on all your printing tasks.

Tips on choosing an industrial ink refill

Posted on November 11, 2011 by Independent Ink

Let’s face it: industrial inkjet printers are a large investment for any business. When selecting an industrial inkjet refill to go in your printer, it is certainly imperative that you select a compatible ink that ensures reliability.

With over 50 years’ experience formulating custom inks, Independent Ink has a few tips to consider when selecting a refill ink for your industrial inkjet.

1. Research the company selling the ink.

There are plenty of companies out there who claim to sell compatible ink products for your industrial printer. But, what is a company’s background? Who have they worked with or for? Take some time to look “behind the curtain” to find out more information than that which may be presented on a company’s ink product page.

2. Determine if the inks are designed for specific printer brands.

Every printer has unique specifications that should be considered when formulating inks and fluids for it. Be cautious of any company that promises a one-ink-fits-all for industrial printers.

3. Inquire if a company has experience with developing inks for your industry.

Some industries have stringent printing requirements and often rely on the availability of specialty inks to produce quality print jobs. See if you can find a list of the industries a company has worked with to better determine if they are knowledgeable on the printing substrates and applications that are common within a given sector.

FAQs about Industrial Printers

Posted on November 11, 2011 by Independent Ink

Like many decisions within your business, deciding to purchase an industrial printer is a large investment and requires time and research. Understanding the factors to consider prior to making this purchase can make all the difference in saving your company time and money.

Below are some frequently asked questions that we receive regarding our industrial printers. If you don’t see your question below, you can submit your question on line.

What factors should I consider when deciding which industrial printer to purchase?
The initial cost of the printer, though important, is just one factor to take into account when purchasing a new printer. Other factors that drive up costs over time are expensive maintenance contracts, service calls, locked-in consumables, spare parts, complex maintenance, training and waste disposal.

Is there one factor that is the most important out of everything else?
Certainly the answer to this question is dependent on your specific industry. However, in the majority of instances, the single biggest factor to consider is up-time or reliability. In almost all cases, products cannot ship without the proper coding. The customer product is significantly more valuable than the ink jet printer, so even a small amount of downtime can quickly eliminate any savings in the initial purchase price of the printer.

How do I calculate cost per print?
Cost per print is not only a function of the cost of consumables. Higher resolution printing with smaller drop size reduces the quantity of ink used.  Independent Ink printers allow for optimization of fonts and resolution. Over time the savings will be significant.

How much does it cost to run an industrial printer?
Operating costs over time add up. Lost production is the most significant cost on top of locked consumable costs, service calls, maintenance contracts and spare parts. At Independent Ink we believe that printer reliability, fair consumable pricing, remote access and solvent recovery are the keys to minimizing operating costs over time.

My industry has very specific printing requirement. Does Independent Ink make a product that can satisfy rigorous industry demands?
In every one of our printing products, we consider print quality, print speed and character size. We have experience working with over ten different industries, and our products offer a wide range of print sizes, speeds and resolution to satisfy almost any coding or marking requirement.
