There are two different main filters compatible to Alphajet and Metronic CIJ printer, which look very similar to each other. In fact, if we don’t circle the extra outlet in green, hardly will anyone notice the difference until they start to install the filters.

Why we talk about these filters? Because we’ve mixed them up before. To avoid the confusion, I think why not list the two filters here and let’s get them straight once and for all.

Both main filters can be installed in the printer, the way to install them is different. So when you order a main filter for your Alphajet or Metronic CIJ printer, better have a look at your old filter and take a picture of it, then we will know which one you are looking for.

We don’t have much Alphajet nor Metronic here, so when you say I need an Alphajet main filter, we assume that you are asking for the commonly used one, which is the one on left. Then when you install the filter, you may find an outlet is missing. Now snice we know there are two different types of main filters, we know how to order the one we want.

If you have any further question or inquiry, please feel free to contact us.

New Arrival!

Alternative Videojet 1280/1580 ink and make up are ready now. If you need the cartridge and chip(no need to pair with crack board) only, they are available too.

V4210/V7205 and V4211/V7206 ink and make up are most frequently asked, please feel free to drop us an inquiry if you need other type of ink and makeup.

When do I need to replace the filter kit? Depending on how often and how long you run your printer per week, we should replace a new set of filters, or some of the filters on regular basis. If your printer runs non-stop most of the time, we shall change a new filter kit every 2 to 3 months; If it runs from time to time, we could take a look at the condition of the filters and decide when to replace which filter.

We carry filter kits compatible to Linx, Domino, Videojet, Willett, Markem Imaje, Fastjet, Hitachi, Alphajet etc. If you are not sure the filter part number, please kindly send us pictures of the filter you are looking for and let me know on which printer model it’s on, we will quote with our filter’s picture.

Good news, we have newly be able to provide alternative Videojet 1580/1280 ink and makeup chips that can work on their own, no crack board needed anymore. V4210/V7205, V4211/V7206 chips work without any problem. Please feel free to let us know which ink and makeup model do you need, we will check if we have the chips.

As the new chips costs slightly higher, if your printer works 24/7 and consumes quite a lot liquids, we’d better install a crack board and pair with the old model alternative chip, which saves more in the long run.

However, if your printer only works from time to time, and consume little liquids, please purchase the new model chip, it costs a little higher, but can last for a while.

If you want to purchase V4210/V4211, V7205/V7206 ink and solvent, we can provide them too. Delivery fee for liquids costs higher, please kindly let me know quantity, I will quote with delivery fee altogether.

Please feel free to drop us an inquiry.

It’s difficult to tell the size of a compatible cap by looking at a picture. You may wonder, will this compatible cap fits my bottle? I can’t risk to deliver loads of non-useful caps to me, but it takes time to test the sample first and then arrange the second shipment. What a dilemma.

Don’t worry, we can send you pictures with close-up detail and measurements. Take a look at the pictures below. I think we are clear now. 🙂
