Latex ink.

a water-based, resin-bonded wide-format ink cured with heat

A water-based wide-format ink that bonds pigment to the substrate with a heat-cured resin, rather than solvent evaporation or UV curing. It needs an inline heater and behaves differently across substrates than eco-solvent or UV-curable ink, so swapping technologies without checking substrate range and cure time changes both consumable cost and cycle time.
