Solid Ink

What is Solid Ink?

Solid ink is a proven colour printing technology only offered by Xerox. A solid ink printer or multifunction printer uses solid sticks (or blocks) of no-mess, non-toxic ink instead of toner or inkjet cartridges. Solid ink is easy to use, produces incredible colour print quality, is cost-effective, and is very good for the environment.

Introduced in 1991, the first solid ink printer won awards from PC Magazine, MacUser, and MacWorld. Numerous awards and reviews have been received by solid ink printers and multifunction printers.

Xerox is committed to solid ink technology for one simple reason: it delivers colour printing benefits like no other. The ColorQube™ 9200 Series multifunction printer further erases cost barriers to colour printing - flexible pricing plans let you print in colour everyday!

• Non-toxic ink is resin-based, similar to a crayon, so the sticks are safe to handle by anyone
• No-mess ink won't stain your clothes or your skin
• Capacities of ink sticks can be up to 1,000 or 2,300 pages depending on the device
• Load up to 5 sticks at a time (depending on device) of each colour in a solid ink device for long, uninterrupted printing
• Stringent manufacturing of the ink ensures colours will be consistent – 100% of all ink is inspected, not a statistical sampling, which is commonly used

The Mechanics

Simple design consists of only three major assemblies: the print head (transfers ink to print drum), the print drum (transfers image to paper), and the controller (the brain that tells everything what to do). A short paper path means solid ink printers are fast and reliable.
