MIMAKI launches new low-cost inkjet printer for textiles

The newly unpacked MIMAKI TS100-1600 sublimation transfer inkjet printer for textiles expands the company’s entry-level 100 Series lineup. The new textile printer will be available worldwide from February 2021. This new all-in-one entry model printer can handle everything from sample creation to large-lot production. High speed printing of up to 70 sq m/h for high productivity, this new printer features improved operability using the comprehensive technology of MIMAKI. Compatible with MIMAKI’s two types of original RIP software, it ensures beautiful prints and ease of use.

MIMAKI TS100-1600 offers an excellent balance of operation performance, image quality, speed, and cost. The print width of 1,600 mm, which is frequently used in the textile/apparel industry, is supported. Even though the printer is a reasonable entry-level model, it achieves high productivity with a print speed in the fastest mode, which is about twice as fast as our conventional model for textiles. In addition, the use of a one-litre bottle ink for the first time in the sublimation transfer models helps cut the running cost in about half compared to conventional model.
