Solvent ink
Solvent ink bites into the surface of PVC media and dries by evaporation. It is built for outdoor durability at banner speed and at banner cost, and it is what the S series runs.
Fit
What solvent ink is for
Suits
- Flex banner, hoarding and outdoor signage at volume
- Long unattended production runs
- PVC-based media
Not for
- Indoor work where the smell matters — that is eco-solvent
- Rigid or non-absorbent material — that is UV
Printheads
Heads that run solvent ink
Check yours before ordering. The head decides the chemistry, and the wrong chemistry is a replacement rather than a return.
