Eco-Solvent Ink Consumption for Printing

It's very easy to see how many ink you have been using in the past, but it's very difficult to determine how many ink you will need for printing in the future. However, this is an important question for Large Format Printer owners or potential buyers. Ink consumption is directly linked to the question regarding how much is the per square metre printing cost.

We ran extremely solid colour printing tests on our FastCOLOUR Large Format Printers that makes use of our ECO-Solvent Ink. The results are:

In the real business environment, you won't just print single colours. For the colours other than pure Cyan/Magenta/Yellow/Black, multiple ink will be used. For example, Cyan and Yellow produce Green, Cyan and Magenta produce blue and Pitch Black is from all the above four colour inks. In real printing applications, 250% of single colour ink usage is the value generally used to calculate the ink consumption.

Bi-directional Printing and Printing Passes

While many large format machines print in one direction only, our FastCOLOUR Large Format Printer provides bi-directional printing that enables continuous printing at every pass, keeping output time to a strict minimum. Printing in a single pass for decreased turnaround time, and multiple pass for increased printing quality however, printing will be slower. The amount of passes printed does not effect ink consumption. The printing speed for our FastCOLOUR Printer is about:

Printing Passes	2,3 Pass	4 Pass	6 Pass	8 Pass
Equal to EPSON® DX5/DX7 Print Head Resolution	360×720 DPI 360×1080 DPI	720×720 DPI	720×1080 DPI	720×1440 DPI
Mode	Draft Mode	Production Mode	Quality Mode	High-Resolution Mode
Printing Speed	30 m²/h	15 m²/h	10 m²/h	7.5 m²/h

The printing speed is based on full bed size printing. For rectangle shapes, printing vertically is slower than printing horizontal since the moving speed on this printing direction is faster and printing horizontal causes less printing passes too.

Download ICC Profiles What is ICC Profile

In color management, an ICC Profile is set that uses data which characterizes ink color space according to standards promulgated by the International Color Consortium (ICC). All the ECO-Solvent Ink in the market should have ICC Profiles to allow you to print the color correctly. When you change to our ink, you will also need to load our ICC Profiles to your RIP Software.
