JET-X® 85
— Same reliability. More substance.
The most balanced all-round paper.
Built on a proven legacy
JET-X® 85 builds on the trusted foundation of the original JET-X® — one of our most successful and widely used sublimation papers worldwide. With its higher grammage, this grade offers increased ink coverage and transfer time, making it ideal for signage and home textile, where bold prints and continuous output are essential.
Balanced performance at scale
With its increased grammage, JET-X® 85 supports higher ink coverage and delivers deeper color after transfer. The optimized transfer performance, enables shorter transfer times, allowing higher calendar speeds while maintaining stable performance during long production runs.
Platform Compatibility
Industrial, EPSON, KYOCERA, and more.
JET-X® 85 performs consistently across industrial printing platforms as well as EPSON systems. Compatible with high-glycol inks — including those used with KYOCERA print heads — and other ink types, without compromising color depth, stability, or runnability.
