Colours: 8 (or 2 x CMYK)
Printing with: 210mm – 1850mm
Ink Types: Dye sublimation, Acid, Reactive

As well as the versatility of available inks, and being able to print direct to textile & via dye sublimation, another great feature of the Tx400-1800D is the ability to adjust the ink volume that is jetted by the print head, depending on the design being printed, and the fabric being printed on to. This feature gives this new printer a real edge when it comes to the ability to achieve outstanding effects & depths of colour.
The new Mimaki dye sublimation ink has been specifically designed for low vapour emission, which gives greater control over the impact of vapour on the media, leading to am increase in the sharpness & quality of the image.
Ink is delivered in 21 ink containers, with reusable outer cases, which helps to achieve substantially reduced ink prices, and helps to lower environmental impact. The patented Mimaki UISS (Uninterrupted Ink Supply System) ensures the automatic changing of inks when one 2l-ink container runs empty without an interruption to the print run, and a maximum of four liters of ink (2x2l per color) allows for longer unattended bigger print runs.
An additional model within the Tx400 series, that will be avaliable from spring 2010, will include an adhesion belt carrier system to stabilize flexible materials that can stretch and contract during printing.
