Mimaki Printer — UV · DTF · Sublimation · 3D

Industrial specialty printing, engineered around the ink.

Every Mimaki printer is a colour-controlled system — in-house ink chemistry, waveform piezo heads, and Mimaki Colour Technology (MCT) keep a gloss UV panel, a sublimation flag, and a DTF apparel run reading as one colour family.

Product Platforms

Seven specialty printing platforms. One colour stack.

Browse the full lineup ›

Rigid & Roll UV

UV Flatbed

Mimaki UV Flatbed Printer

Rigid-substrate UV print on glass, acrylic, aluminum, MDF, and wood up to 50 mm thick — with white and clear varnish for layered finishes.

UV Roll

Mimaki UV Roll-to-Roll Printer

Wide-format UV roll for outdoor banners, vehicle wraps, and backlit signage — UV-LED curing reduces dwell heat on heat-sensitive films.

Compact UV

Mimaki 6042 UV Printer

Benchtop UV flatbed for personalised items, small-batch décor, phone cases, and short-run prototypes — fits a 600 × 420 mm bed footprint.

Textile & Apparel

DTF

Mimaki DTF Printer (TxF Series)

Direct-to-Film with TxF300-75 / TxF150-75 platforms — one-pass CMYK + white, integrated powder shaker, cotton-to-polyester transfer range.

Sublimation

Mimaki Dye Sublimation Printer

Sb54 / Sb55 sublimation inks for soft signage, apparel fabrics, sportswear, and interior textile décor — TxLink soft-proofing workflow.

Direct-to-Textile

Mimaki Direct-to-Textile Pigment

Pigment-based direct print on cotton, linen, and blends — a shorter production chain versus reactive or sublimation for natural-fibre runs.

Wide Format & Industrial

Wide Format

Mimaki Wide Format Printer

1.6 m and 1.9 m eco-solvent and latex-friendly platforms for retail signage, vehicle graphics, and short-run POP — with MAPS banding suppression.

Mimaki industrial inkjet digital printer

Digital Inkjet

Mimaki Digital / Inkjet Printer

Short-run industrial decoration for labels, nameplates, and promotional items — variable-droplet piezo heads retain fine-line readability.

3D Colour

Mimaki 3D Printer (3DUJ Series)

Full-colour UV-cured 3D printing — 10 million+ colour reproduction, clear material support for translucent finishes and architectural scale models.

Technology Pillars

Six systems working together on every print.

Mimaki's edge is not one machine — it's the vertical stack of ink chemistry, waveform piezo control, colour technology, and nozzle recovery working as a single system.

In-House Ink Chemistry

Mimaki formulates its own UV, sublimation, DTF, and textile inks — so a gloss signage UV and a polyester sublimation black live in one calibrated colour family, not three vendor worlds.

Waveform Piezo Control

MAPS (Mimaki Advanced Pass System) and variable-droplet waveform control shape each ink drop on the fly — suppressing banding on gradients and art reproductions without dropping throughput.

Mimaki Colour Technology (MCT)

ICC profiling, spot-colour replacement, and monitor-to-substrate soft-proofing in RasterLink and TxLink — first-off approvals move from days to a single validation pass.

Specialty Range Under One Stack

UV flatbed/roll, sublimation, DTF apparel, direct-to-textile pigment, and full-colour 3D — all sharing one colour management stack rather than five disconnected vendors.

NCU / NRS Nozzle Recovery

Nozzle Check Unit detects clogged nozzles mid-job; the Nozzle Recovery System routes ink through healthy nozzles automatically — protecting long textile runs from costly reprints.

Open Substrate Program

Validated media profiles for 400+ substrates — glass, aluminum, acrylic, leather, soft-signage textile, corrugated — downloadable from the Mimaki Profile Library rather than tuned by hand.

Industries Served

Colour-critical production in six markets.

See industry applications ›

Signage & Visual Communications

POP, backlit, retail wayfinding, and vehicle graphics — consistent brand colour across UV rigid, roll, and solvent substrates.

Interior decor and architectural graphics

Interior Décor & Architectural

Printed wall panels, custom tile décor, translucent partitions, and architectural signage with GREENGUARD-eligible UV inks.

Soft Signage & Flags

Dye-sublimation for double-sided flags, trade-show fabric, and feather banners — lightweight, wrinkle-forgiving, washable.

Apparel and sportswear sublimation and DTF

Apparel & Sportswear

Sublimation for polyester performance wear, DTF for cotton and blended tees — shared colour targets across both routes.

Industrial Labels & Nameplates

UV-printed labels, anodised nameplates, and rating plates — fine line legibility via variable-droplet waveform control.

Packaging Prototyping

Short-run printed cartons, mock-ups, and structural prototypes — digital print before committing to flexo or offset plates.

Sustainability

Lower-impact ink chemistry, by design.

Specialty printing cannot be decarbonised with marketing copy. Mimaki's sustainability work sits inside the ink formulation, the UV-LED curing stack, and the textile pigment chain — the places where the footprint actually lives.

GREENGUARD Gold

Eligible UV ink lines carry GREENGUARD Gold indoor air-quality certification for interior décor applications.

OEKO-TEX ECO PASSPORT

Eligible textile ink formulations pass OEKO-TEX ECO PASSPORT screening for apparel and soft-signage supply chains.

UV-LED Curing

LED curing replaces mercury-arc UV lamps on modern platforms — reducing dwell heat on films and cutting curing-bulb waste.

ISO 14001

ISO 14001 environmental management covers manufacturing operations — tracking energy, solvent, and end-of-life cartridges.
