Everything You Need to Know about UV LED Printing

Maybe you’ve never had a UV printer and are wondering about the benefits. Perhaps you already have a UV printer and are ready to move up and speed up to boost production. Here’s your chance to learn about the latest technology to grow your business.

Let’s start with the benefits of UV LED print technology.

  1. A broad range of applications — Minimal heat output makes it easy to print on heat-sensitive media. Limited heat equals stable calibration.
  2. High productivity — No lamp warmup time eliminates wait time.
  3. High durability for cost savings — Long-lasting LEDs, so no lamp change downtime and cut cost of consumable.
  4. Energy savings — Low energy consumption with LEDs for power savings.
  5. Sustainability — LED lamps don’t contain mercury so they eliminate mercury disposal. LEDs don’t produce ozone gas so no need for extraction by ventilation.

Technology to match your growth 

What if you could introduce UV technology to your operations so that it is in step with your needs? Mimaki makes it easy.

Mimaki UJV100-160 64” roll-to-roll is an affordable entry-level UV-LED printer. Dot position and feed correction are done automatically, reducing operator workload. UVJ100-160 delivers high-quality prints and high speeds, combining stability and productivity in a competitively priced unit.

If a print and cut better meets your needs, consider Mimaki’s UCJV300 Series.   The UCJV300 print-and-cut family offers in-line cutting capabilities and features multi-layer printing for transitional or double-facing images. Graphics are instantly cured, so you can efficiently create applications that will meet your customers’ needs. The UV-LED  print-and-cut devices come in a variety of models, 32” UCJV300-75, 44” UCJV300-107, 54” UCJV300-130, and 64” UCJV300-160.   

When the timing is right, super-size it with the super wide Mimaki 126” UJV55-320  printer. This UV-LED printer features seven ink colors, including white, so you can print oversized graphics and panels. Plus, you can print simultaneously onto two rolls. Applications include banners, retail displays, wallpaper, and more.

Need a flatbed solution? Consider the Mimaki JFX200-2513 EX with expanded capabilities including draft mode which enables maximum print speed of 12 boards/hour. When you’re ready, you can move up to JFX600-2513 for blazing speed and high definition.

Additionally, LexJet also offers Mimaki eco-solvent roll-based printers for a variety of budgets and applications.  Wish you could test a Mimaki printer before you purchase one? Discover Buy It, Try It, Love It.

Finding a Competitive Advantage for Poster Printing

Poster Printing
Productive Displays, Addison, Ill., was able to print high-quality posters cost-effectively with Sunset Photo Satin SUV.

There are certain volumes for poster printing where digital inkjet printing simply can’t compete with offset or screen printing. However, those volume numbers, and the margin where such projects are profitable, inch higher for digital printing companies as time goes by.

Inkjet Poster PrintingBruce Ulrich, president of Productive Displays in Addison, Ill., reports that with the addition of LexJet Sunset Photo Satin SUV 275g, that volume number where his company can compete for poster jobs with offset and screen printing is near 1,000.

“Typically, where we compete most effectively for this type of work is in the 1-800 piece range. Once we go over 1,000 pieces I would need another 20-30 percent off the cost,” says Ulrich. “We used another product in the past, but it was much more expensive. I needed to find an option that would give us at least another 40-50 percent off the cost of producing posters.”

Ulrich found that option with LexJet with Sunset Photo Satin SUV 275g. Moreover, Productive Displays is able to provide a higher-quality, sharper and more color-accurate poster. Sunset Photo Satin SUV is also instant-dry, so that production of multiple-run posters can move quickly and smoothly using the company’s Mimaki JV3 solvent printers.

Inkjet Poster PrintingThe job pictured here for Dish Network is an excellent example as it required three versions with 100 prints of each version. Variable-data print projects, where there are multiple versions of the same print, continues to become more commonplace, fitting nicely into a wide-format digital print company’s wheelhouse.

“With most customers, they’ll come back and ask me for the price for three versions, five versions or ten versions. When they say that to the offset or screen print companies there’s a setup charge. I try to explain to them that where our favorable cost situation comes into play is that it doesn’t matter how many versions they want, the price per poster won’t change,” explains Ulrich. “The client was very pleased with the look and quality of the posters. The Sunset product will allow us to compete more cost-effectively against the offset and screen print companies for poster-related projects.”
