The new JFX200-2531 was on show at PacPrint 2017 and was eagerly demonstrated by Mimaki staff. The smaller JFX200-2513 flatbed printer has sold well in Australia according to Brad Creighton, National Sales and Marketing Manager for Mimaki Australia and he expects many of those customers may wish to upgrade to the newer, bigger model.
"The newer and bigger model with a 2.5 x 3 metre bed enables users to load new jobs whilst a previous job is still being printed", said Brad.
The spec sheet on the Mimaki web sites states that the new machine is a large flatbed UV-curable inkjet printer that has twice the printing area as compared with the entry model, JFX200-2513, while retaining its printer engine.

* Built-to-order model
•Larger printing area enables printing up to 2.5 m × 3.1 m size
The larger print table is compatible with media as large as 2.5 m ×3.1 m. While being larger than the current model (JFX200-2513), the new printer can be divided into several units (*1), allowing it to use the same entrance size during installation as the current model.
*1: Install Dimensions (W×D×H): 4,400 mm × 2,250 mm × 1,250 mm (173.2 in × 88.6 in × 49.2 in)
•New toggle print feature increases productivity
The new toggle print feature enables alternate image printing for both sides using the wide printing area (2.5 m × 3.1 m). Operators can load and unload panels on one side while the other side is being printed. Using this efficient media mounting feature minimizes time delays and maximizes productivity.
•Excellent usability
- The ionizer is a standard feature for eliminating the undesired electrostatic discharge that affects a printed image quality.
- The suction valve separately controls four suctioning areas. This capability improves the printing quality by providing stable media handling.
- The vacuum pedal is also a standard feature of this printer. It allows operators to control the media vacuum power without the need to access the control panel at the front side.
•Same reliable printing technique of the current model along with versatile capabilities for handling a wide range of applications
- Anti-banding function, Mimaki Advanced Pass System2 (MAPS2)
- Variable dot print resulting in smooth and beautiful prints using three ink droplet sizes.
- Mimaki Clear Control (MCC) adds value to the prints by providing various high-quality finishes.
- A wide range of ink types is offered to accommodate the application needs. LH-100 ink: High scratch resistant ability / LUS-120 and LUS-150 inks that are suitable for printing on soft materials. LUS-200 ink: High weatherability / Thermoformable LUS-350 ink.
