Yes, the CM750 supports acetone-based inks—but only when used with proper flushing, handling, and system care.
Why use acetone-based inks?
-
Extremely fast drying
-
High adhesion on plastics, metal, and glass
-
Ideal for non-porous or coated surfaces
Precautions before switching
-
Run Clean Ink System to remove MEK or ethanol residues
-
Use compatible solvent from the same range
-
Store fluid in explosion-proof storage (flammable rating)
-
Acetone inks can evaporate rapidly—ensure proper tank sealing
Things to watch out for
-
Higher solvent loss rate than MEK
-
More aggressive toward seals and tubing—use verified parts
-
Requires full compatibility with filters and return lines
