What is a fast-dry solvent ink cartridge?+
It is a thermal inkjet cartridge containing solvent-based ink formulated for rapid drying on compatible packaging and selected industrial surfaces.
What is the difference between 12.7mm and 25.4mm TIJ cartridges?+
The 12.7mm format supports standard coding-height requirements, while the 25.4mm format provides a wider print area for larger characters and increased print height.
How much ink does each cartridge contain?+
42ML.
What colors are available?+
Black, Blue, Red, Yellow, Green and White.
What materials can solvent ink print on?+
Suitable applications may include plastics, coated cartons, films, labels, selected metals, glass and other compatible surfaces. Final performance depends on ink selection, substrate and printing conditions.
Can these cartridges print on plastic?+
They may be used on compatible plastic bottles, containers and molded surfaces. The exact ink and settings should be confirmed with the specific substrate.
Can they print on metal or glass?+
Selected coated metal and glass applications may be suitable. Adhesion and drying performance should be validated on the actual surface and under the intended production conditions.
What operating voltage is used?+
8.5–9.5V based on the supplied operating specification. Printer configuration should be confirmed before use.
What pulse width is recommended?+
1.8–1.9 μs based on the supplied specification. Confirm against printer settings before use.
Can I use the cartridge in any TIJ printer?+
No universal compatibility should be implied. Compatibility depends on cartridge format, printer architecture and operating parameters. Contact WECARE with the printer model for confirmation.
Which cartridge should I choose: 12.7mm or 25.4mm?+
Choose 12.7mm for standard coding-height requirements and 25.4mm for wider or larger print-height applications.
How do I choose the right ink color?+
Color choice depends on substrate contrast, identification requirements and the application. WECARE can help review the material and required result.
