Hi Bora,
Dye based inks are not etch resistant, you need to use
pigment based inks. MISPRO pigment based inks are etch
resistant. You need to be sure that at parking
position/state the ink jet head is covered by sealing
rubber of the ink pad. If there is an air gap between
head and sealing rubber it can cause ink drying
problem.
Happy new year.
Cheers
Volkan
