MIMAKI TO SHOWCASE LATEX AND SOLVENT<br />
UV PRINT SOLUTIONS AT DRUPA 2012<br />
Mimaki, a leading manufacturer<br />
of wide-format inkjet<br />
printers, is to present its latest Latex and<br />
solvent print solutions at Drupa 2012. The<br />
company will also unveil its new high-gap<br />
UV-LED fl atbed printer. The exhibition<br />
takes place 3 – 16 May in Dusseldorf,<br />
Germany. Mimaki can be found in hall 9<br />
at stand C21.<br />
Delegates visiting the stand will see the<br />
high-speed, high-quality JV400LX series,<br />
which uses environmentally friendly latex<br />
ink, including the world’s fi rst white latex<br />
ink. Also on show will be the JV400SUV<br />
series, which combines the fl exibility of<br />
solvent printing with the durability of UVcuring<br />
inks.<br />
Both systems employ Mimaki’s easy-touse<br />
RIP, RasterLink6, which enables three<br />
ink layers in one pass with white and colour<br />
inks. And they offer outstanding print<br />
speed without compromising quality. The<br />
systems can print up to 18.1 m2/h, while<br />
a minimum dot size of 4 picoliters and the<br />
ability to use variable-sized ink dots ensures<br />
smooth gradation without a grainy<br />
appearance.<br />
The advanced system opens up new<br />
opportunities by enabling print houses<br />
to print on a wider range of substrates.<br />
Other benefi ts include a new white ink<br />
circulation system that prevents pigment<br />
sedimentation, and a nozzle recovery<br />
function that temporarily restores print<br />
quality if a maintenance issue should arise.<br />
Plus it enhances print service providers’<br />
green credentials thanks to its small<br />
environmental footprint and long-life, low<br />
power consumption. Mimaki Europe has<br />
experienced a lot of European interest in<br />
this next generation printer after its introduction<br />
at the 2012 Fespa Digital show in<br />
Barcelona.<br />
New opportunities with innovative<br />
solutions<br />
The UJF-3042HG desktop fl atbed printer<br />
will also take the stage at Drupa. The<br />
new High Gap (HG) version can print up<br />
to 15cm-high objects, making it ideal for<br />
the promotional, trophy and commercial<br />
proofi ng markets. It offers multiple ink<br />
combinations like six-colours plus white<br />
and clear, but also an automatic priming<br />
feature, allowing to retain the look and feel
