food grade ink 6120.
• Linx food grade solvent 6600 can take up to 20 minutes to dry completely. The
printhead must be completely dry before the printer is started.
• To keep delays to a minimum, clean the printhead at the end of a work shift.

sequence, as shown in the Linx 5900 & 7900 Quick Start Guide. The printhead must be
completely dry before the printer is started.
