Sign and Digital UK will see the launch of a new InkTec bulk ink filling system that it claims could save printers up to 65% on ink costs. It will be available either as an open floater cartridge, where ink goes directly to the printhead, or a closed ink pouch system suitable for printers where the ink goes to the printhead via a sub tank (bag) from the cartridge and for printers with vertical positioned cartridges.
The ink pouch has a sensor, so if the ink levels do reduce, the printer will stop, allowing it to be re-filled or for the ink pouch to be changed.
The system can be used with InkTec’s Eco Solvent ink range.
