Better Marking with CIJ Printers

Only use inks and cleaners manufactured by Matthews

Matthews inks are manufactured, quality tested, and proven to be compatible with our printers. Past history has shown that aftermarket inks cause damage to the printers and increase system downtime. For the best, most cost-efficient performance, use only Matthews certified inks and cleaners.

To prevent CIJ nozzle clogs, always allow the printer to do its "Flush Shutdown"

All I-Mark C84 continuous ink-jet printers have an automatic flush function. This function will stop the jet, evacuate the nozzle of ink, and introduce a stream solvent through the nozzle. It will then evacuate all of the ink lines and then prompt the user to switch the unit off. Failing to allow the printer to do this will result in an "Incomplete Shutdown" and cause clogged nozzles. Consult the Product User Manual for details.
