When choosing an ink provider, look beyond ink price and consider ink performance.
Ink price alone has little if any impact on the profitability of your business. In fact, considering labor, amortization and maintenance, ink price is only 41% of Total Print Cost. On the other hand, Ink Performance has everything to do with controlling the bigger costs such as waste and maintenance that directly impact your bottom line. Most importantly, Ink Performance directly impacts revenue potential (throughput) of every machine in your shop.

The SubliM Direct Experience...
"I was using original OEM ink in my d.gen Teleios printer, and constantly struggled with bad colors and clogged print-head nozzles. The waste was high, and the productivity was very low. The switch to Sawgrass Technologies’ SubliM Direct ink changed all that. I don’t have to worry about head clogging (there is none), and the colors come out right and vibrant, print after print. I am now able to obtain colors I was never to achieve before, such as bright reds, pinks and yellows. The productivity - and the color—have reached highs far above what I had envisioned."
