FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Frequently Asked Questions — STS Eco-Solvent Ink (General 1 Liter)
Eco-solvent ink is a low-odor pigment-based ink that uses a mild organic solvent carrier instead of harsh petroleum solvents. It bonds directly to coated and uncoated media, provides excellent outdoor durability without lamination, and is safe for indoor use with basic ventilation. It’s the dominant ink type for production wide-format sign and vehicle wrap printing.
Traditional hard solvent inks require heavy ventilation and dedicated outdoor-rated facilities. Eco-solvent inks use milder solvents, produce minimal odor, and can be used in standard indoor shop environments. Print quality and outdoor durability are comparable for most signage applications.
Eco-solvent inks cure by evaporation (no curing lamp needed). UV inks cure instantly under UV light for faster production speeds but require a UV-equipped printer. Eco-solvent is more common for flexible media like vehicle wraps; UV is better for rigid substrates.
No. STS eco-solvent inks are formulated to be a virtual match to the original OEM inks. Install them exactly like OEM — no purging, no profile changes needed. If switching from a non-STS third-party ink, run a cleaning cycle first.
No. All STS eco-solvent inks are non-returnable. Confirm your printer model and the correct OEM ink code before ordering. Call (512) 454-0505 or email [email protected] with your printer model to confirm compatibility.
