EPSON showing its new Monna Lisa 13000 at drupa 2024

EPSON is all set to showcase its new Monna Lisa 13000 at drupa (Booth D20 in Hall 5). The new machine is an affordable single-step digital direct-to-fabric textile printer with compact footprint that delivers in-line printing using more sustainable pigment inks. Monna Lisa ML-13000 is an innovative textile printing solution that requires no additional equipment for pre and post treatment, steaming and washing. The new direct-to-fabric printer comes equipped with three types of pre and post processing chemicals (pre-treatment, over-coating, and density enhancer) in addition to seven colour inks.

All these features of EPSON Mona Lisa ML-13000 makes this printer possible to integrate pre and post processing in a single step printing solution and contrasts with other conventional textile printers that require separate processes. Pre and post chemicals are used only on the print area (dot-on-dot), enabling prints that bring out the texture of the fabric. The ML-13000 also enjoys a much smaller footprint compared with conventional textile printing equipment, allowing it to be installed in more confined and convenient working environments.
