High-margin, low-cost solution
The new Eco Ultra inks have been specifically developed for the Rockhopper 3 Extreme's piezo print heads and as a result, ink consumption and print production costs are significantly reduced. Profit margins can be further improved using low-cost uncoated and coated materials, including materials with standard paper or clay coated backing.
Sparkling colours and high-detail
The fast-drying Eco Ultra inks produce highly saturated, sparkling colours with a wide colour gamut and deep, detailed skin tones and shadow areas. The Dynamic Variable Dot Technology optimises image sharpness and drying time while significantly reducing overall ink-consumption.

The Rockhopper 3 Extreme printer requires no daily cleaning and can be easily switched off for long periods without the need for special procedures when starting up again. The Rockhopper 3 Extreme printer comes supplied with a six-month user maintenance kit containing all necessary parts to perform periodical maintenance and keep the printer in an ideal condition.
