Mimaki hybrid printer draws in the crowds at ITMA 2019

Mimaki’s hybrid printer, which enables direct-to-textile or direct-to-transfer printing with different inks, was a highlight of ITMA 2019.

Emphasising that the new model developed within the TX300P Series is equipped with Mimaki's core technology, Arjen Evertse, General Manager of Mimaki Eurasia said that that the new hybrid printer can be operated both in direct textile printing and transfer paper printing methods, notwithstanding of a single type of ink.

Arjen noted that both the sublimation ink developed for transfer paper and the sublimation ink developed for direct printing can be loaded to the hybrid textile printer at the same time, adding that one of the inks can be sublimation and the other pigment.

Allowing smaller service providers to expand their markets with richer applications thanks to its flexibility to print in different fabrics, the new hybrid model is scheduled to be available worldwide by the end of 2019.

Alongside the printer, Mimaki also featured the Tiger-1800B MkII, the Mimaki TS55-1800  Mimaki UJV300-160 roll to roll UV LED inkjet printing model, as well as two models from the TR Series (coating and steaming machines) for pre-print and post-print processes.
