Determining the most beneficial equipment for business growth and accessing new markets and revenue streams can sometimes be daunting, but Mimaki makes this decision easier.

Here are some essential printers and print-and-cut solutions to help get you started on your printing journey!

UV Technology

The UJV100-160 is a competitively priced UV-LED 64” roll-based printer with all the productivity features of higher-end models. It features Mimaki instant-dry UV-LED inks that adhere to a variety of media, including paper, PET film, fabric, vinyl, and more, making post-printing handling and finishing effortless. Indoor signs, POPs, and stickers can be finished quickly, and it’s also suitable for high visibility window displays, decorative transparent acrylic panels, and vivid signage such as light boxes. With UV light, UV-LED inks cure instantly, dramatically increasing printing speed and efficiency. This multi-purpose machine is suited for a variety of applications while keeping costs low.

If you love the features of the UJV100-160 but require a built-in cutter with additional features, then the UCJV330 may be the ideal solution.

The UCJV330-160, for example, has production speeds of 301 sq. ft./hr. for a four-color configuration or 194 sq. ft./hr. with White and/or Clear inks, enabling you to provide your customers with impressive turnaround times and produce more jobs with increased efficiency.

In addition, the high speeds achievable with this technology do not compromise the image quality. This is thanks to Mimaki’s newly developed patent pending ink ejection technology that reduces color irregularities in high density areas even in high-speed output mode. You can choose to enhance graphics with a glossy finish or achieve a luxurious look with a matte effect. Other notable features include 2.5D textured printing for sense of sight and touch and simultaneous clear and white ink for watermark printing, expanding the range of applications.

You can seamlessly perform print-and-cut operations, expanding your printing possibilities, including decorations, posters, labels, stickers, and more. This versatile machine is also equipped with ID cut and zero-margin crop mark functions, which support automatic and continuous cutting of various data while reducing waste.

Eco-Solvent Technology

The JV100-160 offers professional-grade printing at an affordable price, catering to a wide range of applications from fine art reproduction to vehicle wraps. This 64” printer features print speeds of up to 677 sq ft/hr. It also features new AS5 Ink with 4 color and 8 color options, including Orange and Light Black inks ensuring vibrant and precise prints. Plus, with the innovative Dot Adjustment System (DAS), Nozzle Check Unit (NCU), and Nozzle Recovery System (NRS), maintaining consistent print quality is effortless. Additionally, the included RIP software, RasterLink7, streamlines the printing process, reducing RIP time by 25%!

With a built-in cutter, the 54” CJV150-130 is your go-to high speed print-and-cut solution for a wide range of applications in light production settings.

Going Green with Eco-Solvent Inks? Here Are 20 Must-Have Products

We know the environment is top-of-mind for many print shops, and that’s why you’re transitioning to eco-solvent ink technology, such as Epson’s UltraChrome GS3 ink with GreenGuard Gold certification. To help you pair your printer with the right products, we’ve compiled a list of 20 must-have compatible media options, available at LexJet. Check out these products for art and photo, walls, signage and multipurpose applications:

Art & Photo

Eco-solvent options for canvas and photo printing is especially attractive because it eliminates the need for additional coating production that’s required for aqueous printing. These best sellers do just that while offering excellent image reproduction, as well:

Width Variety Key to Consistent Canvas Print Projects

A common issue in multiple-print canvas projects, like a gallery exhibition, is finding enough different roll widths for all the sizes you need to print. The ability to use the same canvas for one project ensures production efficiency and image consistency across all the widths you print.

That’s why the new Sunset by Fredrix Canvases for solvent and aqueous printers are available from LexJet in widths up to 64″.

Sunset by Fredrix Matte Canvas for aqueous printers, which features one of the brightest white points for an OBA-free canvas, comes in 17″, 24″, 36″, 44″, 60″ and 64″ widths.

Sunset by Fredrix Satin Canvas SUV for solvent, low-solvent, latex and UV-curable printers – which  provides consistent and accurate color on a bright-white, acid-free base – comes in 30″, 36″, 54″, 60″ and 64″ widths.

Now, whether you’re printing all sizes yourself, or outsourcing your largest prints, you can ensure that all your prints match in finish, texture and image quality: one canvas, one color profile and a consistent, high-quality project every time.

Give a LexJet customer specialist a call at 800-453-9538 to find out more and to get the sizes you need for your printer with the new Sunset by Fredrix canvases.
