All inks from InkTec are
microfiltered to remove 99.9% of insoluble
materials so that they will be suitable for the
micro nozzle. This microfiltration system is one
of the ways we ensure the clear colors and
outstanding print quality of InkTec
inks.
InkTec
Dye Based Ink
The performance of
dye-based ink can be maximized by using high
quality raw material, dye, and additives. Since
the color and resolution depends on the grade of
dye, InkTec uses the best quality raw material
to offer the brightest and deepest colors. Ink
performance also depends on how the ink
additives are compounded. InkTec has developed
more than 400 different types of ink in order to
maximize printout quality.
Bleeding Test with Black
and Color Ink
Moreover,
using high quality materials produces excellent
color presentation that is supported by all
types of paper. When an InkTec printout is made
on photo paper, it shows almost picture-like
quality. These inks are widely used by
photographers, camera stores, and other types of
businesses. Due to the very short drying time of
the ink, it is ideal for the consumer who wants
a quick photo or text-based printout.
InkTec
Pigment Based Ink
The thermal type
of printer head, used by HP and other companies,
disperses ink drops through vapor bubbles, which
are created when high heat is applied to the ink
in the head. When using improper ink in a
thermal printer head, the properties of the ink
can be changed due to the high temperature of
the head, or the residue of the ink pigments can
stick to the heat plate, degrading the head
durability and easily causing malfunction. In
order to address this issue of printer head
durability in thermal printers, InkTec uses very
high quality material in our ink manufacturing
to improve print quality. InkTec pigment ink
protects printers from the risk of pigment
precipitation due to high temperatures and from
pigment residue sticking to the heat plate. The
key to InkTec’s innovative pigment ink is the
fact that the ink maintains stability due to
resin coating and improved dispersion of the
pigment particles. It is this imperfect
dispersion or unstable pigment particles that
can cause bending or head clogging during
printing. After years of researching and
developing dispersing technology, InkTec was
able to shrink the pigment particles down to
80nm (0.08um) for both black and color inks.
This miniaturization results in consistent
printing with no damage to the head and uniform
absorption of the pigment molecules on the paper
to present clear images in high resolution.
Using the same pigment as the OEM product,
InkTec pigment-based ink increases durability
and lightfastness. This ink is optimized for the
HP thermal head structure and also improves the
cartridge and head durability.
