RE: [Digital BW] New graduated black inks - beta testers wanted please

2007-03-02 by David Whistance

Hello Paul

If you can get them to me here in the UK I would willingly try them in
either an R800 or R220 (same cartridges as the R300 I believe).

  Hi, My name is Paul Banks. I am the Managing Director of Image
  Alchemy Ltd. www.image-alchemy.com

  We are introducing a new graduated black ink set ("BLACK ART") at the
  end of the month and we are looking for experienced beta testers
  please. We will initially make inks for the following printers: 2400,
  R1800/R800, 2100, 1290, R300.

  We propose to sell the inks in our Digital Image Print System (DIPS),
  pre-filled and also as separate inks to be used with refillable
  cartridges or other ink systems.

  Prototype inks are extremely stable. This means the particle size of
  the pigment in the ink will not alter over time. In many inks the ink
  suffers from from particle size re-agglomeration, this means that the
  particles join together in the ink to make larger particles. These
  larger particles will eventually lead to nozzle blocking in the
  printer's print heads and cause poor printer performance. There are
  many reasons for this instability; poor pigment dispersion, chemical
  incompatibilities in the ink, etc. Our inks are undergoing testing for
  chemical compatibility and stability in our laboratories. We will
  guarantee the stability of our inks for up to 2 years. Our pigments
  are milled super fine to guarantee optimum performance. The average
  particle size in our inks is 120 nanometer; so small that it cannot be
  seen by the naked eye!

  We are using the latest laser technology to guarantee the particle
  size in each and every batch of ink that we produce.

  We are showing our ink system (DIPS) at PMA, booth V258. As newcomers
  to this product sector, we would very much welcome constructive
  comments please.

  Thank you.
