Hey guys, been working with an LEJ-640 loaded with the ECO-UV S inks for about 6 months now. Issues have arisen with our 640 that is causing us to have the entire ink system ripped out and replaced so we have an opportunity to choose a different set of inks.
When we got the 640 initially, my boss wanted to go with the standard Eco-UV, not the S type so we could print clear using the CMYK+White+Clear setup. The guy who set it up loaded it with the S type ink in CMYK+wht+wht config instead and you can't go back supposedly w/o tearing all the guts out. So I have been doing some research on the difference between the two ink sets to see which one is really the best for us to go with this time around. The non-S type costs about $20 less per cartridge and the S type is formulated to be super stretchable. Besides that, I am not finding too many differences between them. So I am posting here to see what your guys take on the difference between them are. Besides the capability to print clear with the non-S ink, are there any other benefits?
Thanks!
