Sublimation has become a key part of the product offering<br />
at Identify and recent sales have proved the benefit of having<br />
what is reputedly the biggest range of sublimates available<br />
anywhere.<br />
Taking centre stage will be the DirectJet printer. The DirectJet<br />
is described as a unique printer, designed to print on many different<br />
substrates without the need to pre-treat the surface. This means<br />
that the DirectJet can be used for many different applications from<br />
signage to labelling. Using pigmented inks the output provides<br />
excellent durability which includes a white ink that’s proving a<br />
bit of a showstopper.<br />

InkTec Europe E70<br />
InkTec Europe will be showcasing its brand new Eco Solvent ink for<br />
Roland, Mutoh and Uniform printers.<br />
Also on display will be the company’s Full Solvent inks for<br />
Mimaki printers and a wide range of media products.<br />
The InkTec Eco Solvent ink is colour matched to the Roland<br />
OEM ink and can be mixed with the OEM inks too, thus making it one<br />
of the first true plug & play alternative inks available.<br />
As the average retail price is around 45 per cent less than<br />
the OEM inks, the potential huge cost saving will come in<br />
very handy, especially during these testing times where every<br />
penny counts.<br />
