Sepiax ink is non solvent but does all a solvent ink does just needs 55c heat to cure. I would add tho compared to solvent ink sEpiax ink still needs more dvelopment I’ve found blacks are dull heat needs to be extremely high and has the flaw of pinch roller lines show in media due to heat transfer to rubber pinch roller and the inks cures a darker colour Where the extra heat or press of rubber wheels are. So may go back Eco still wayin it up
