The HP Q2344A, 1918 dye-based black print cartridge achieves excellent decap times for intermittent printing conditions, & produces optimal image quality, print speed, & dry time on a wide variety of substrates.HP designed the Q2344A, 1918 dye-based black print cartridge specifically to support intermittent industrial printing on a wide variety of substrates: coated & uncoated papers, labels, & specialty media. This dye-based ink optimally penetrates the surface of the substrate, producing sharp, crisp output without smearing or transfer
- ideal for the packaging industry & other markets that need consistently robust results. On coated substrates, such as photo papers, this dye-based ink enhances the glossiness of the medium. Higher decap times reduce nozzle dropouts in production environments with intermittent printing requirements. Unlike some pigmented inks, the dye-based ink in this print cartridge is water-based, not solvent-based, so production facilities do not need additional ventilation, special chemical cleaners, or qualified service technicians who can handle solvents.
