Mimaki to give UK and Ireland debut to JFX-1615plus UV printer at Sign and Digital show

Mimaki UK and Ireland distributor Hybrid Services has invited printers to test the "creative potential" of the manufacturer's new JFX-1615plus UV large-format printer at this year's Sign and Digital UK .

Hybrid will debut the machine, which it said provides a "flatbed solution for companies with a smaller format print requirement", at the Birmingham NEC-based event from 12-14 April.

The printer can output at a resolution of up to 1,200dpi and has a bed size of 1.6mx1.5m. The new model also features a post-curing unit with a claimed print speed of up to 23.6sqm an hour.

John de la Roche, national sales manager at Hybrid Services, said: "The JFXplus has the ability to print onto non-coated substrates up to a thickness of 50mm, and the added advantage of two ink options (hard and flexible UV curable inks) to suit different applications really opens up its creative potential."
