Ink Supply – What is the delivery system by which your ink will be applied?

Safety – Does your ink contain any toxic chemicals? Is there safety information you can read about how to handle it properly?

Drying time – How quickly will ink dry on both porous and non-porous surfaces?

Shelf life – How long can an ink remain unopened and still be stable and ready for use? Are there any storage temperature requirements that help it maintain the average shelf life?

Performance – Are there specific types of print heads that the ink is designed to work with? You can sometimes verify this information in a warranty that may accompany your print heads.

If you would like some information on the best industrial inkjet ink refill to purchase, please contact us to speak with a customer representative.

Compatibility – Ensuring your ink’s compatibility with a printing application is vitally important. If an inkjet cartridge is not designed to work seamlessly with a printer, then major damage, including corrosion, reduction in print rate, and irreparable parts can occur.

Quality control – Each type of inkjet cartridge is designed to meet certain quality standards. A large reason behind their ability to meet exact industry standards is their unique composition. While some inkjet cartridges are designed to produce high resolution images others are formulated to provide some type of data while withstanding extreme hot or cold temperatures. Failure to select an inkjet cartridge that adheres to your industry’s standards opens up a great risk of deviating from mandatory requirements.

Reputation – The reputation of an ink involves how well it has consistently performed for multiple users who’ve purchased it. Purchasing inkjet cartridges from reputable companies that only carry top-of-the-line products is a great first step in eliminating poor ink products. Plus, they can make product recommendations based on the experiences of their customers, not to mention they can quickly remove any inks from their inventory that are not performing well.

1. Compatibility

Ensuring that the refill ink you put into your industrial inkjet is fully compatible with its parts is vital to the longevity of your machinery. Always double check that the ink you are purchasing is designed to work seamlessly with the printer’s print heads and other specialty parts.

2. Composition

The composition of your refill ink is largely what determines how well it prints with certain machines and how well it holds up under certain conditions. Considering the printing environment, including temperatures that the ink will pass through after the final product is released, are a must. Whether extreme temperatures, dusty rooms or sunlight exposure, it’s important to undoubtedly know that your ink can withstand the necessary elements.

3. Credibility

Lastly, but perhaps most importantly, make sure that the ink company from whom you’re making your inkjet cartridge purchase is reliable. You need a company that can stand beside their products and guarantee that you will receive quality results when using them. Plus, finding a company who can offer you industry knowledge, such as best practices to ensure your ink and printers have a long life, is ideal.

Compatibility: Specific continuous inkjet printers require specific inks. While some continuous inkjet refills might work in the short-term, they can cause long-term damage to your printer if you do not choose the exact inks that are designed to operate with your printer brand.

Cost: Some inks are produced in mass quantities, while others are made in smaller amounts. The way a company chooses to produce its inks can yield money savings to the customer. Conversely, it can also place a burden on their wallet. It’s important to inquire about the manufacturing process of these inks to see if savings or expenses are being passed on to you, the consumer.

Quality-Assessment: Are the inks produced and tested by professionals? Manufacturing high quality inks is a claim that nearly every company can make. Be on the lookout for a research and development team that is on staff to assist a company with high-end, customized ink formulations.

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.
