Genuine Mimaki SS2 (mild solvent) ink cartridge in Cyan, designed for Mimaki JV3 series wide-format printers. SS2 is a pigment-based mild solvent ink that delivers strong color density, good outdoor durability, and reliable performance on a wide range of uncoated media, including vinyl, banner, and other common sign & graphics substrates.

- Ink Type: Mild solvent, pigment-based
- Volume: 440 mL per cartridge
- Form Factor: Integrated cartridge with chip for easy installation and level monitoring
- Application: Ideal for indoor and outdoor signage, banners, decals, posters, vehicle graphics (subject to media and laminate), and general wide-format production.
- Media Compatibility: Works on many uncoated solvent-compatible media such as PVC vinyl, banner materials, and other standard sign substrates.

Compatibility & Use Disclaimer
- Printer Compatibility: It is the buyer’s responsibility to confirm that SS2 ink (SPC-0380C) is officially supported for their specific Mimaki printer model, firmware, and configuration. Using unsupported inks can cause print quality issues, clogging, or printer damage.
- Ink Mixing: Do not mix SS2 with other ink families (e.g., ES3, BS3, SS21, solvent, eco-solvent, or third-party inks) in the same ink line unless explicitly approved by Mimaki. Mixing inks can void warranties and damage the printer.

- Safety: Solvent inks are industrial chemicals. Use appropriate PPE (gloves, eye protection), follow the SDS/MSDS, and keep out of reach of children. Avoid skin contact and inhalation of vapors. Ensure adequate ventilation during use and storage.
