Inks and issues

Professional graphic designers are only too well aware of the possible issues with inks. All inks are slightly different, and the demands of printing become progressively more of a factor when dealing with high resolution, or using a lot of colour. Ink quality is vitally important, and the colour mix is critical.

Graphic designers are perfectionists with absolutely no tolerance of mistakes when it comes to hard copies of their work. There are good reasons for this level of accuracy. The quality of their materials is crucial to their businesses, particularly when working with specifications. These are the main reasons the professionals stick to industry standard inks, which are trustworthy with these demanding jobs.

What you need

There are some easy ways to figure out what you need. If you’re using a major graphics platform like Adobe Illustrator, or other high quality graphics software, you’ll know the image quality these platforms can produce. The benchmark for a good quality ink is exact reproduction of high detail on these platforms.

The criteria are:

 

• There are no colour “compromises” or “surprises” in your print jobs. (These may be caused by software trying to balance low link levels, but they can be caused by poor mixing of inferior quality ink, too.)
• You’re printing exactly what you’ve got on your screen, perfectly rendered, with no inconsistencies.
• The ink doesn’t misbehave on the medium, with no spots, streaks or other infuriating problems.
• The ink is consistently applied throughout the print.
• The ink doesn’t need to dry, and doesn’t make the paper soggy. (Note: some media, even good typing paper, really aren’t suited for some print jobs, and don’t respond well to application of a lot of ink, which can make a real mess of detail and colour. Try your print on good photo quality paper.)

Finding a supplier

To find the inks you need, and get a good price, shopping online is definitely your best option. Bulk ink supplies, and even just basic discount printer cartridges can be bought far more cheaply and easily.

Good suppliers have   much better deals, (far cheaper than retail) and provide some reassurance for online buyers with things like money back guarantees and a clear layout of customer services, shipping deals and payment options. They stock all the big name brands, so you won’t have to hunt around for your inks.

If you’re looking for laser printer toner, inkjet refills, bulk discounts, or just trying to find that elusive ink cartridge for your model of printer, they’ll have it in stock or can try and find it for you.
