MIMAKI UJV55-320 CMYK Manuel utilisateur
This document bridges the gap between the Fiery XF documentation and the Mimaki UJV55-320 documentation.
Refer to the Installation section before you connect the printer to a computer.
The Operation section has information on profile generation and everyday use. Please refer also to the Operation
Manual.
For a UJV55-320 printer, select the Fiery XF driver that matches the ink configuration in the printer:

From the computer viewpoint, the Mimaki UJV55-320 is a special USB device with Ethernet support. The latest driver is
downloadable from http://www.mimaki.co.jp/
Follow the instructions in the Mimaki USB Driver Install Guide before you connect the printer. Mimaki USB Driver
version 4.0 or later is recommended. Furthermore, the Mimaki network driver is supported from version 1.2 onwards.
1Install Fiery XF and the latest Fiery XF service pack that supports the Mimaki UJV55-320 printer. The minimum
requirement is Fiery XF 7.1.
2To configure the Fiery XF printer:
•In System Manager, add the printer by clicking on the plus (+) icon and selecting “Mimaki”as the manufacturer
and “Mimaki UJV55-320 CMYKcmW”as the printer type.
•In the Connection panel. select the Connection type “Print via port” or “Print via IP network”.

In Color Tools, select the printer for which you want to create a calibration file. The calibration file forms the basis for
creating a media profile.
•You can access the ink layers settings via the “Media type” setting.
•You can set the number of passes via the “Print mode” setting.
•You can select the Variable, Fixed Small/Large “Dot size” setting.
•You can select a resolution in the range of 600x300 dpi to 1200x900 dpi.
Ink consumption may be higher in higher resolutions.
•If your printer has light inks, reduce the starting point of norm ink. Setting it to 1/2 of the default Color Tools setting
(e.g. from 38% to 19%) is a good start.
1In Server Manager, click on the Media panel for your printer and load the calibration file you created in Color Tools.
2Click on Printer & Workflow Settings to open the Special Settings panel.
Always check the control panel settings –they may override the RIP settings or otherwise affect print
quality.
This section applies only to printer models with white ink.
For white printing, the print head is split into two bands - one band for process colors and one band for White ink. The
print speed is much slower than for normal color printing.
White adds another 100% of ink. Although the print speed is slower, you can easily run into quality issues. Use as much
of the media width as possible, and follow the hints given in the “Color Tools” section above. In particular, make sure to
keep the printing width consistent.
There is no specific calibration available for White. White ink simply uses its own calibration curve. As far as profiles
are concerned, the printer is still a CMYK device. Five-channel profiles that include a mix of CMYK and White are not
supported.
Printer supplement
Separated file formats, e.g. PS, PDF, EPS, support spot colors. For Fiery XF, the spot color name WHITE_INK has a
special meaning. It is a pre-defined printer-specific internal spot color. During job processing, it goes directly to the
printer, by-passing color management. It is possible to specify it directly in the document. Alternatively, you can use
Color Editor to set up an alias, by mapping one of the job’s separations to WHITE_INK. You can then select the .*cxf
file in the color settings of the job.
You can find the settings for White ink on the Special Printer Settings panel for the printer (Server Manager) or for the
job (Job Editor).

•Print mode
There are six ways to print White:
Name
Meaning
Spot color WHITE_INK
The spot color of this name or alias from a separated document prints White. This is the
default mode.
Inked image
Every pixel which does not have CMYK = 0,0,0,0 on the printer side adds White
Bounding box
Every pixel in the image rectangle adds White. This is the recommended mode during
calibration and profile creation
White_INVERSE
Same as “Spot color WHITE_INK” but channel inversed
Ink chroma map
Reduces the amount of White for darker colors.
Off
White off, even when it comes from the separated document
The options “Inked image” and “Bounding box” work regardless of whether the file is separated or not.
•White ink coverage
White ink coverage is an option that configures the amount of white ink relative to black. The available settings are
10%, 13%, 16%, 20%, 25%, 32%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 83%, 100%.
•Printing order
Since White is opaque, the printing order is important.
Setting
Meaning
Color on white
Prints White as the foundation color, then prints the other colors on top. This setting is
for printing on dark or metallic materials.
White on color
Prints White on top of other colors. This is for printing transparencies from the back.

Color White Color
Prints three layers with white in the middle.
Printer supplement
The temperature can be set either through Fiery XF (20 –60 °C) or at the printer control panel.
•Refresh Level - For nozzle clogging prevention, set the amount of ink to be discharged from the nozzle.
•White-High density - This mode uses white ink twice as much comparing to printing with normal density.
