◎Outline
- Direct print onto the substrate of up to 4’ x 8’
- Convenient design reflecting user’s perspectives
- “Beautiful image quality” is achieved by a newly developed print head and MIMAKI’s unique print head control technology
- Energy-efficient and long-lasting LED-UV lamps, and bottle ink supply accomplished eco-friendliness
◎Main Features
1. Direct print onto the substrate of up to 4’ x 8’
The table size of 2,500mm x 1,300mm enables printing directly on the board of 4’ x 8’ size (1,220mm x 2,440mm) which is commonly used for signboards. Moreover, JFX200-2513 can print on the thick media of up to 50mm height, which leads to expand business opportunities.
2. Convenient design reflecting user’s perspectives
The main equipments are all placed on the front
The operation panel, the vacuum valves and the ink supply system are placed on the front side of the printer. Most operations such as changing the media, switching vacuum, and replacing ink bottle can be done at the front of the main body.
3. MIMAKI’s unique head control technology ensures high-definition and high-quality prints
Reduction of banding
MAPS II (Mimaki Advanced Pass System II) reduces banding by dispersing ink drops between passes. This technology delivers exceptional quality prints (*2).
* 2: Banding is horizontal lines which appear on boundaries of passes.
Variable dot size printing provides detailed image quality
Variable dot size printing ejects ink in three different drop sizes, allowing for producing fine print results without granular appearance.
Easy media setup with layout pins
When setting a substrate template on a flatbed, strict alignment had been required to check whether the media is not in-line with the printing surface, or whether the point of origin is aligned, etc.
4. Wide variety of UV inks to fulfill your requirements
| Type | Colors | Features |
| LH-100 | C/M/Y/K/W/Cl | Excels in scratch and chemical resistance. Hard UV ink with fine color repeatability. |
| LUS-150 | C/M/Y/K/W | Newly developed UV ink offers 150% flexibility while providing lower operational costs during high-speed UV printing. |
| PR-100 | Primer | Primer ink (*3) |
* 3: Primer ink is a pretreatment agent to improve ink adhesiveness.
５．Mimaki Green Technology 
Inhibition of toxic substances generation
With the adoption of UV inks which generate little VOC (*4), and do not require an ozone-causing ultraviolet irradiation of short wavelength for its curing, no special ventilation is required.
* 4: VOC stands for Volatile Organic Compounds.
LED-UV lamp
The long-lasting and the energy-efficient LED lamps are incorporated for the light source of ultraviolet. The low heat LED-UV lamps allow for printing on heat-sensitive substrates.
1L ink bottle supply system
The ink supply by 1 liter ink bottle contributes to reduce waste production, compared to the ink supply by ink cartridge system.
