American Ink Jet Releases Black Pigment Ink and Cleaning Fluid
BILLERICA, Mass. — American Ink Jet Corp. (AIJC), a leading independent developer
and manufacturer of inkjet inks, has released Pitch-Black pigment ink for use
in HP 51629- and 51645-type cartridges, and Ink-X cleaning solution concentrate
and cleaning fluid for use with all inkjet cartridges.
The Pitch-Black is a high-density, quick-drying black pigment ink designed for
the HP 15, 20, 29 and 45 cartridges. “The density of our new Pitch-Black
pigment exceeds that of the OEM on just about any paper,” said James Andreottola,
product manager. “These may not be the newest cartridges, but they represent
such a large percentage of the inkjet remanufacturing market we feel our customers
will greatly benefit from the exceptional quality of this new ink.”
Ink-X is the latest in AIJC’s line of inkjet cleaning fluids and has been
designed to aid in cleaning cartridges containing pigment ink. The new formula
is strong enough to break up dried pigment, without corroding delicate inkjet
print heads. Ink-X is also available in a concentrated formula with dilution instructions,
and detailed instructions on how to best utilize the new cleaning products are
available.
American Ink Jet Corp. maintains a multidisciplinary research and development
staff that applies C3-calibrated color chemistry technology to formulate inks
with chromatic color, precision and purity. Utilizing dyes or pigments, AIJC manufactures
both standard and archival inks and works with printer manufacturers, print head
developers (continuous, piezo and thermal) and media coaters to develop optimum
solutions using water-based inkjet inks. The commitment to purification and ultra
filtration with inkjet inks has earned the company a reputation for providing
reliable, consistent inks.
