Superwide Printers UV Inkjet Ink For Varied Media

EFI has launched its new 3M piezo inkjet ink series, 2800 UV, for use with its Vutek QS2000 and QS3200 superwide printers and a range of opaque, clear and translucent 3M substrates.

3M piezo inkjet Inks and 3M media are claimed by EFI to ensure vibrant, long-lasting four-colour, or six-colour graphics when used with Vutek QS2000 or QS3200 printers.

The inks are said to be designed for use with 2mm and 4mm 3M Controltac graphic films and 3M Scotchlite Reflective graphic films, as well as with a range of rigid materials.

The UV-cured inks are claimed to be durable, weather resistant and provide colour retention.

Their flexibility makes them suitable for use on curved, corrugated or flat surfaces, with or without rivets, when producing fleet and vehicle graphics, indoor and outdoor signs, banners and flexible sign faces.

The 3M 2800 UV piezo inkjet ink series, which comes in cyan, magenta, yellow, black, light magenta, light cyan and white is now available.

Chuck Dourlet, vice president of marketing at EFI Vutek, commented: "The release of this new ink builds on EFI's relationship with 3M, bringing increased value to owners of Vutek QS2000 and QS3200 superwide printers.

With these new inks and 3M media, printers and their customers will have peace of mind derived from using products that are tested and backed by industry leader 3M.

They will also be able to take advantage of 3M's MCS warranty, the strongest warranty in the industry for most finished graphics for up to five years.

Robert Doughty, division vice president for 3M Commercial Graphics, explained: "The release of the Series 2800 UV inks follows an earlier collaboration to provide UV inks for EFI's Vutek PV200.
