St. Paul, Minnesota – No graphic can truly be complete without the coverage of a quality warranty that helps provide peace of mind and assurance to every graphic manufacturer. When it comes to warranties, 3M is committed to covering all components of a long-term graphics installation, including premium print films, inks and more.  With the introduction of new 3M co-branded inks with Durst, Epson® and OKI Data Corporation backed by the 3M™ MCS™ Warranty, 3M is furthering its commitment to providing graphic manufacturers with the widest range of warrantied products that ensure the longevity and quality of each and every finished graphics installation. “At 3M we are always looking for additional ways to establish ourselves as the leader in warranty coverage and provide graphic manufacturers with the widest selection of co-branded inks and printer combinations backed by 3M’s long-term warranty. It is our goal to allow graphic manufacturers the ability to choose from premier printer options and still have a 3M ink to qualify for the 3M™ MCS™ Warranty,” said Adam Larson, Global Portfolio Manager for 3M Commercial Solutions Division. “Expanding our offerings and relationships with Durst, Epson® and OKI Data Corporation was the perfect opportunity to continue providing graphic manufacturers with the highest quality of products backed by the robust 3M™ MCS™ Warranty.” Finished graphics made with the following new 3M co-branded inks are eligible for the 3M™ MCS™ Warranty:
