EnglishMimaki New Prime and Flexible Inks for UJF-3042
After the successful introduction of the UJF-3042, Mimaki has added new functionalities to its leading UV LED curing printer range. The UJF-3042FX will feature special primer ink that allows users to automatically prime their media if needed.
This enables the possibility to print directly with UV curable ink on many different substrates, ranging from glass to metals. Priming is needed on many surfaces for better adhesion of the UV curing inks.
Mimaki also announces the new LF-140 and availability of the LF-200 flexible inks for the UJF-3042FX printer. With the added benefit of the new flexible ink and primer solution, this printer is unique in its market and opens the possibility to use more substrates without manual pre-priming.
The UJF-3042FX will allow for more efficient use of using untreated stock directly. While usually application of primer is executed manually, the UJF-3042FX incorporates an automatic primer feature whereby primer is applied on the fly. The new inkjet primer PR-100 cartridges (available in 220 and 600 ml sizes) are simply inserted into the corresponding ink slot of UJF-3042FX, enabling the easy to use priming capabilities. The UJF-3042FX will only use primer where needed, saving money and time, as well as reducing waste.
