Mimaki unveils JFX200-2513 EX flatbed printer

Mimaki USA in April announced the new JFX200-2513 EX UV-LED flatbed printer, which it says has adopted a new draft mode that enables a maximum print speed of up to 12 boards per hour. Its three staggered printheads also allow for simultaneous printing without sacrificing speed, even when using white and clear inks. This model offers faster mechanical motors and a vacuum foot pedal that gives the user the ability to load or unload various substrates quicker and more effectivity.

Mimaki engineers developed a 2.5D print function for the JFX200-2513 EX. Compatible with RasterLink6 Plus software, 2.5D printing allows users to create dimensional textured graphics up to 0.5 mm in height using greyscale. Combined with Mimaki Clear Control, the function aims to leverage Mimaki’s LUS clear inks to remove bubbles and create sharper edges.

“The new JFX200-2513 EX printer builds on the original model’s features that our customers have come to count on. We engineer products based on customer insights, allowing us to offer a printer that will serve the needs of our users and their businesses,” says Michael Maxwell, Senior manager at Mimaki USA. “We’re excited about this addition to our JFX Series product family.”

The JFX200-2513 EX can print onto media up to 98.4 wide x 51.1 long x 1.96 inches thick, producing a range of applications such as rigid signage, wayfinding, decorative panels, POPs, custom pieces and more. It utilizes Greenguard Gold inks in four and six colour configurations, plus available white, clear and primer.

The company says the JFX200-2513 EX will be available for order from a Mimaki authorized dealer in summer 2019.
