Features

The features and methods of operation are explained in this manual for you to understand how to use

the device properly.

Various textile printing ink can be used

MIMAKI genuine ink is shown below.

Acid dye ink : Suitable for wool, silk, and other animal fibers and nylon.

Reactive dye ink : Suitable for wool, silk in addition to cotton, rayon, etc.

Disperse dye ink :Suitable for fibers such as polyester, acrylic etc.

Printing pigment ink :Use with cotton. Fixing with hot pressing is possible in postprocessing.

•When using any type of ink, be sure to perform the pre-processing and

post-processing recommended by MIMAKI for the fabric used.

•Use the printing pigment in an environment with humidity of 40% or more.

Automatic nozzle check function

Checks the print head condition automatically even during printing.

If a failure is detected, this function performs recovery operation, recheck, etc. according to

the setting. This function enables unattended print operation.

Applicability of fabric up to 7 mm in thickness

Even thick fabric, such as boards, can be used.

The plotter accepts fabric whose thickness is in the range of 0.1mm to 7.0mm.

Applicable to wide fabric

Fabric with up to 1650mm width can be set and printing for up to 1620mm width is possible.

Remaining ink management system with Ink IC tip

The IC chip mounted on the ink cartridge allows monitoring of the amount of remaining ink

even after it is removed and remounted.

This avoids INK END during unattended operation, allowing efficient use of ink and fabric.

LCD display

The LCD panel displays the device setting menu in two lines.

Since the LCD panel is provided with a backlight, the display can be seen clearly even in a

dark place. The LCD panel is capable of displaying seven different languages, including

English and Spanish.

- iii -

Large capacity Ink (2 Liters) can be set

Two one-liter ink toggles can be set for each color.

If one toggle runs out, the other toggle is selected automatically to prevent interruption of

printing caused by ink replacement.

Display of information for confirmation

It is possible to have the printing length displayed on the LCD panel and the printing condi-

tions to be plotted for confirmation during operation of the plotter.

High-speed interface

The "IEEE 1394" interface allows for high-speed data reception from the computer.

Take-Up device for printing on a long fabric

Since the take-up device winds up the plotted fabric, along fabric is also available.

Fabric retainer

If the edge of the fabric is curled or raised, the fabric retainer can be used to avoid contact of

the fabric and ink head.

Ditch for penetrated ink

Even with printing to a coarse-textured fabric, the backing fabric is not stained by penetrated

ink. Removable platen boards are prepared for fabric without ink penetration.

Dryer provided

After printing, the dryer dries the fabric on the path up to the take-up device.

Applicable to large rolls

Up to 200m rolls (cotton, t=0.25, approx 38kg) can be set, fed, and rolled up.

Printing on a stretch materials

Enable to print on a stretchy material by sticking the fabric on the belt with a pressure roller.

Cleaning the belt during printing

Enables to print as removing inks or dusts adhered on the belt.

Feed Comp. function has been newly added.

Correcting the medium feed rate during printing.

Support for 4-color plotting

4 colors are allocated to 8 heads to enable plotting.

Plotting using 4 colors takes only half the time as with the 8-color set.
