Both printers incorporate two piezo drop on demand print heads and two long life UV LED lamps. The ValueJet 1638UR Mark II (VJ-1638UR2) is a roll-to-roll printer; the ValueJet 1638UH Mark II (VJ-1638UH2) is a hybrid model handling both roll and rigid substrates. Both printers come standard with Mutoh’s brand new & genuine VerteLith RIP software with advanced 6-channel support.

The new Mark II series printers feature two new pioneering features, i.e. a next generation weave algorithm specifically developed for digital UV printing called Intelligent Interweaving UV (i² UV) and Mutoh’s proprietary Clear Tone screening. Both new features run in sync with Mutoh’s new VerteLith RIP software to deliver increased performance and print quality including the best possible gradients and skin tones.
