The invention relates to a device for refilling an ink cartridge (10 or 13) for an ink-jet printer, comprising a printer head (16) provided with nozzles, or an ink outlet that can be coupled to the ink supply of an ink-jet head. Either the nozzles of the printer head are directly connected by a fluidic connection or, in the event of an ink outlet that can be coupled to the ink supply of an ink-jet head, said opening is fluidically connected, especially by means of a wick and/or a valve, to an ink storage element arranged inside the ink cartridge and comprising a mechanism producing a low pressure or a material which is absorbent for example. The device according to the invention comprises an ink container (11) filled with ink and having a aeration opening (29) and an ink outlet (18) through which an element that can be fluidically connected by the ink (19) extends and on which the ink cartridge (10 or 13) or the ink storage element thereof can be docked, producing a fluidic connection. Positioning and/or identifying elements (24, 25, 26) for the identification and exact positioning of at least one ink cartridge (10 or 13) to be filled, in relation to the ink outlet of the ink container (11), are associated with the ink outlet (18).

The invention relates to an acrylate-based UV-curable ink, in particular ink jet ink, having a content of pigments, radical photoinitiators, dispersing agent(s) and optionally additional additives, characterized in that said ink contains at least two radical photoinitiators of the Norrish type I and at least one radically curable monomer in the form of a polyfunctional alkoxylated and/or polyalkoxylated acrylate monomer, which comprises one or more diacrylates and/or triacrylates, wherein the mol ratio of all acrylates to all initiators is approximately 5:1 to 19:1. The invention further relates to a method for producing a UV-curable ink, in particular an ink jet ink of the aforementioned type, wherein 1) a ground product or an ink base is produced by grinding one or more radically curable monomers in the form of a polyfunctional alkoxylated and/or polyalkoxylated acryl monomer, which comprise one or more diacrylate(s) and/or triacrylate(s), with one or more pigments and dispersing agents, in particular optionally additionally with synergists, stabilizers and further additives, in a high-performance mill, in particular in a pearl mill, until a constant viscosity and/or constant particle size develops, and 2) the resulting ground product is mixed with further acrylate monomers and the radical photoinitiators in the form of the Norrish type I, and optionally other additives. Said ground product exhibits advantageous physical properties at elevated temperatures and in long-term storage.
