Universal Seal™ Red 0.5 Inch 12.7mm Quick-Dry Solvent TIJ Ink Cartridge

Quick-Dry Red Solvent Ink

The Universal Seal™ Red 0.5 Inch TIJ Ink Cartridge uses quick-dry solvent ink designed for clear red coding on compatible packaging and industrial materials. The distinctive red print is useful where product information, identification marks or codes need to stand out clearly.

12.7mm / 0.5 Inch Print Height

With a maximum print height of 12.7mm (0.5 inch), the cartridge is suitable for compact product coding applications while providing enough printing area for essential product and traceability information.

Approximately 3–5 Second Drying Time

The quick-dry solvent formulation has an approximate drying time of 3–5 seconds, helping reduce smudging during normal handling and packaging operations. Actual performance depends on the printing material and operating conditions.

Print Multiple Types of Content

When used with a compatible TIJ printer and controller, the cartridge can print text, dates, logos, barcodes and QR codes. Depending on the printer software, it can also be used to create product coding layouts containing production and identification information.

Suitable for Multiple Surfaces

The cartridge is intended for compatible surfaces including plastic, metal, glass, foil, pouches and cartons, making it suitable for a variety of packaging and product coding applications.

Handheld & Online TIJ Compatibility

The cartridge can be used with compatible handheld and online TIJ printers. Handheld systems provide flexibility for manual coding, while compatible online printers can be integrated into production and packaging lines.

Clear Red Product Identification

Red ink provides a visually distinctive alternative to conventional black coding. It can be useful for colour-specific identification, product differentiation and high-visibility coding where red printing is preferred.

Cartridge-Based TIJ Operation

The cartridge-based TIJ system provides convenient installation and replacement without requiring a separate bulk ink circulation system. This makes routine cartridge changes and day-to-day operation straightforward.

Industrial & Packaging Applications

The cartridge is suitable for compatible coding applications in food packaging, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, FMCG, manufacturing, logistics and general packaging industries, subject to the requirements of the final substrate and printer.

Storage & Handling

Keep the cartridge properly protected when not in use and avoid touching or damaging the printhead/nozzle area. For consistent printing performance, follow the storage and handling instructions supplied with the cartridge and compatible TIJ printer.
