Leading manufacturer of wide-format inkjet printers and cutting systems, Mimaki has launched its ‘Make the Difference’ campaign, designed to celebrate Mimaki-powered print innovation and customer success. Produced by some of the most inspirational print service providers and brands across Europe, the project explores digital print diversity with stories focussing on applications from a variety of sectors.

Those of us working in the printing industry are familiar with the term ‘RIP’ (or Raster Image Processor) – a software tool that acts as a vehicle for converting files on a PC into a format for outputting onto a printer. You can’t run a wide format printer without it. Mimaki’s exclusive RIP software; RasterLink has a number of benefits and great features that make it accessible and efficient, while enabling highly proficient, quality print output. Richard Williams is the Showroom Manager at Mimaki distributor in the UK and Ireland – Hybrid Services, and he talks us through the ins and outs of RasterLink6Plus.

Exclusive UK and Irish Mimaki distributor, Hybrid Services is to host the debut of three new products at this year’s Sign & Digital UK exhibition, held at the NEC in Birmingham from 2 – 4 April 2019.

Mimaki Europe has announced that it will release a UV-curable metallic ink, named MUH-100-Si in February 2019. The new ink strengthens Mimaki’s product offering and pushes the boundaries of graphic expression beyond that of ordinary UV flatbed inkjet printers. The ink is compatible with Mimaki’s UJF-7151plus printer, which produces high-quality print for an impressive range of applications, from gifts and novelty items to wide-format boards.

Mimaki Europe has announced that under it’s ‘Join the Experience’ joint show theme, it will exhibit its portfolio of market leading UV flatbed, solvent and sublimation printers at PSI and Viscom 2019 (8-10 January 2019 – Dusseldorf, Germany).
