Features

The ink recovery control and device temperature control provided by the new technology “Makeup fluid consumption reduction system” significantly suppresses the amount of solvent volatilized. The amount of makeup fluid consumed of the pigmented ink model has been reduced by up to approximately 20%*1. It contributes to reduced running cost and improved environmental performance.

  1. Comparison with our former model PXR-P. Data obtained under in-house measurement conditions for JP-W89 ink at 20°C

The electric stirrer prevents the agglomeration and the settling peculiar to pigmented ink to prevent nozzle and filter clogging. In addition, the UX Series pigmented ink model is equipped with “Ink circulation control,” which allows the ink to circulate even in a standby mode to prevent ink fixing, realizing smooth operation on production lines.
