MIMAKI USA has unveiled two new textile printers—Tx330-1800 and Tx330-1800B. The direct-to-textile inkjet printers offer versatility for producing bespoke and on-demand custom textile printing on a variety of fabrics. Ideal for short runs on a variety of materials, Tx330-1800 printer is a hybrid model that can print both direct-to-fabric and to paper. The operator can easily switch the printing mechanism according to the base material (fabric or transfer paper) to be printed, enabling the production of short-run and custom fabrics for a variety of applications, including signs, décor, and wearables. In addition, it can also print on wallpaper and poster paper for a completely coordinated appearance in retail or event settings.
Further, Tx330-1800B printer uses a space-saving belt conveyor system to securely print directly to stretchy, thick, and thin fabrics commonly used for both apparel and décor, supporting short-run and multi-variety apparel production in limited spaces such as design offices, schools, and fabric retail stores. The belt also includes a sophisticated cleaning and maintenance system built into the printer. Textile pigment inks can be used for textile printing on a wide variety of natural fibers, as well as recycled and synthetic fibers. The printer will be exhibited at ISA International Sign Expo on April 23-25, 2025, in Las Vegas.
