Best before date on SubliJet-R

[Paul]

yeah, me too. As this is matter of repacking to different box with correct label or just stick new one over the old one?
Any way... I'm putting it in as i have all emails from longforte. So in if anything happens to my printer or printouts i will contact them.

Very surprised you're getting over a year on the date there. Would be interesting for members to detail dates on their inks for comparison.

Ordered a full set in October from BMS and they are dated July 2015. Wished I'd waited a little longer as they are still all on low and haven't needed to use the new ones yet and done a lot of orders over Xmas.

Just ordered new set from Listawood, 10% discount being a premium member best £10 ever spent, will post the dates when they arrive.

I made the same mistake, by the time I needed my 'spare' set of carts they were all out of date. So I bought a 3110 and put them in that

reply email;

Don't think I've ever seen more than a year use by dates on Sublijet-r. Even stock made up in December by Sawgrass only had 08/2015 as use by date. Are they sure this is correct?

[Paul]

I dont know Marrin. I contacted sawgras and quoted all replays from longforte and see what they will say.

It used to be that Sublijet and Artainium for Epson printers had 18 months shelf life and Sublijet-R for Ricoh had 12 months. Not sure if this has changed since I was in regular contact with them. Going back to Pauls post, where are Longforte getting their Sawgrass products from? Seems a bit dodgy if distributors are repackaging and relabelling Sawgrass products. I bet they wouldn't be including a note if they accidently changed the date to 2016!

Does anyone know (or willing/allowed to say!) who actually manufacturers ink for Sawgrass?
