    Abstract: A method of recycling ink used in non-printing nozzle dispensing operations in an ink jet printer, comprises collecting the ink from the non-printing operation in a collection tray, draining the ink from the collection tray into a closed cell, draining the ink from the closed cell, filtering the ink draining from the closed cell, and adding the ink back to a main ink supply after filtering, the main ink supply containing fresh ink. To maintain the quality of the ink supply the proportion of recycled to fresh ink may be limited to a maximum.

    Abstract: Novel inkjet ink compositions for forming an image in a form of an elastic film attached to a surface of a stretchable and/or flexible substrate and processes utilizing same for inkjet printing color images on various substrates such as colored and absorptive or impregnable stretchable materials, which are characterized by heightened efficiency in process time, ink and energy consumption, as well as products having durable, wash-fast and abrasion-fast images printed thereon by the process, are disclosed. The novel ink compositions comprise a first part, which contains a property-adjusting agent and a carrier, and a second part which contains an emulsified property-sensitive proto-elastomeric film-forming agent, a colorant and a carrier, such that the second part congeals upon contact with the property-adjusting agent. The second part is digitally applied to the substrate less than 1 second following the application of the first part to the substrate.

    Abstract: There is provided a computer implemented method of setting up a target printing system for printing on a target media, comprising: providing a dataset of a plurality of records, wherein a record comprises: (i) at least one sample media parameter of a sample media for processing and/or printing thereon by a sample printing system, (ii) an indication of a quality of a processing and/or a printing by the sample printing system set up with at least one sample process parameter, and (iii) a label indicating the at least one sample process parameter, assigning using the dataset, a combination of a target quality and at least one target media parameter, to at least one target process parameter, and providing the at least one target process parameter predicted to obtain the target quality, for generating instructions for processing and/or printing on the target media by the target printing system.
