Solvent inks are usually too harsh for aqueous print heads. Solvent printers also typically heat the material you are printing on so that the solvents embed themselves, this contributes to the fade resistance expected from solvents almost as much as the ink itself. Epson Stylus printers on the other hand, use a piezoelectric system that purposely does not heat the ink or material.


I'm interested in hearing what you may find from your experiments, but without seeing some solid results proving otherwise, would not expect the printheads nor the printed materials to last very long at all.
Good luck!
