There is also a PM Series, Mars series, XL of Lyric solvent ink printers from Anhui Liyu. 

Superficially the Mars series of Lyric printers look somewhat like the Flex-Europa E-Jet printers, but the Flex-Europa printers appear to be manufactured by a different company. Seemingly Chinese companies even copy from one another. 

In the US manufacturers are required to identify the origin of the machinery inside their products, based on a case where Cadillac cars had a Chevy GM engine. A Cadillac owner sued, saying he paid for a Cadillac, not a Chevy, and demanded a “Cadillac” engine. He won the lawsuit. 

But since most print shop owners don’t know one brand of Chinese printer from another, no one understands the difference between one brand and another. So no one plans to sue. 

Due to the confusion, of not knowing which printer is inside the machine you buy, our university institute is trying to provide guides. For example, a printer sold by one company in the US is actually sold from Taiwan. But the Taiwan company is actually buying a chassis from a company in Japan. So by the time this printer lands in Texas or Maine, or wherever you are located, do you know where to really find spare parts? 

Printers manufactured in Mainland China are covered in the FLAAR Reports on Chinese solvent ink printers. This annotated list will at least get you started. We have a comparable list for printers manufactured in Korea.
