Inkcups is all set to showcase the versatility of direct-to-object printing for promotional products at PPAI Expo 2026, which will take place from January 13–15 at Mandalay Bay Convention Center in Las Vegas, Nevada. Trade visitors to the Inkcups booth will be able to learn more about the capabilities of direct-to-object printing, and learn about how Inkcups customers in the promotional products industry are using direct-to-object technology to transform their business. The company will demonstrate its recently launched X5-T High Throw UV flatbed printer that features the new ‘High Throw’ technology.
The High Throw enhancement to the already popular X5-T flatbed direct-to-object digital printer significantly increases the ink throw distance between the printhead and the substrate, enabling high-quality, accurate, full-color prints on contoured, rounded, slightly curved and irregularly shaped objects, such as mugs with handles, tiered drinkware, and sporting equipment. The X5-T was already known for its ability to print on items up to 19.7 inches (500mm) tall with the addition of a drop table, but the addition of High Throw technology enhances its performance and affirms it as an ideal solution for complex applications in the promotional print market.
