Can the Bentsai B85 do multi-colour printing?
Yes. The Bentsai B85 supports multi-colour stitch printing. Because it has four independent ink cartridge slots, you can load different ink colours into different positions and print them side by side or stitched together in a single pass. Each colour operates independently, giving you flexibility for branding, colour-coded product marking, and decorative coding.
Is the Bentsai B85 suitable for use on a production conveyor line?

How does the Bentsai B85 compare to the Bentsai B80?
Both the B85 and the B80 are wide-format handheld inkjet printers in the same product family, sharing similar form factors and print head configurations. However, a key difference lies in ink compatibility. The B85 supports both water-based (aqua) ink and solvent-based ink, making it suitable for a wider range of surfaces including non-porous materials such as plastic, glass, metal, and aluminium foil. The B80, on the other hand, only supports water-based (aqua) ink, which limits it to porous and semi-porous surfaces such as cartons, wood, and fabric. If your application involves printing on non-porous surfaces or you need the flexibility to switch between ink types, the B85 is the recommended choice. Both models feature a 5-inch touch screen, inline conveyor compatibility, and multi-line printing support.
