Xerox iGen 5 Dry Ink and Supplies Australia: Production Press Guide
The Xerox iGen 5 is a production digital press designed for high-volume commercial printing and can support standard CMYK printing plus optional fifth-station dry inks on suitable configurations. When buying replacement dry ink or related supplies, match the exact Xerox part number, colour and press configuration before ordering.

What Makes iGen 5 Consumables Different?
The iGen 5 is a production-print platform rather than a standard office printer. Xerox offers configurations with an optional fifth print station for specialty and gamut-extension dry inks, so consumables should be matched to the exact press setup rather than selected only by colour name.
Standard and Specialty Dry Inks
Depending on the configured fifth station, Xerox documents specialty options including orange, green, blue, white, clear and fluorescent yellow dry inks. These specialty colours are used for gamut extension, brand-colour work and creative print effects.
Always confirm the exact part number because two dry inks with similar names or packaging may be intended for different applications or press configurations.
Match the Full Part Number
The safest buying method is to record the full code from the installed dry-ink container or manufacturer documentation. Xerox production consumables often use detailed part numbers, and the complete code should be matched before purchase.
Check the Exact Colour
Do not rely only on a general description such as blue or green. Confirm whether the item is a standard process colour, gamut-extension colour or specialty dry ink, and match it to the configured station on your iGen 5 press.
Fifth-Station Dry Ink
Xerox states that the iGen 5 fifth print station can support gamut-extension colours as well as white, clear and fluorescent yellow dry inks. If your press uses a fifth station, verify that the consumable is intended for that configuration before ordering.
Production Press Supplies and Maintenance Parts
Dry ink is only one part of maintaining an iGen 5 production press. Depending on the machine and service requirements, maintenance can also involve drums, transfer components, cleaning assemblies, fuser-related parts and other press-specific components.
Browse Xerox Drum & Imaging Units, Xerox Transfer Belts and Xerox Fuser Units. For broader maintenance guidance, use our Xerox Printer Parts Australia guide.
Do Not Treat iGen 5 Supplies Like Office Toner
Production-press consumables are more configuration-sensitive than ordinary office-printer toner. Match the exact press model, station, colour and part number before ordering, especially for specialty dry inks.
