Suwanee, Georgia—Mimaki USA recently introduced the TS330-3200DS dual-capable digital textile printer.
The Mimaki TS330-3200DS 3.2-meter printer is the best of both worlds for creating high-value textile applications. It doubles as a sublimation unit for printing to transfer paper and as a direct-to-textile unit for printing on polyester fabrics. This 128-inch-wide printer can image transfer media or fabrics at production print speeds of up to 968-square-feet per hour.
The TS330-3200DS printer utilizes a hybrid mechanism to accommodate printing on transfer sublimation paper or on fabric before being transferred for finishing. For transfer sublimation, a platen is installed under the active print area. This platen is easily removed by the user, revealing an ink-receiving spacer for direct-to-fabric printing. This enables the printer to be used for flags and banners that require pass-through, and for transfers to thick and stretchy fabric that are best handled with transfer paper. It can also be used for direct-to-fabric printing on a range of polyester materials including heavy coverage backlit applications.
Based on proven Mimaki 330 printheads and including many Mimaki Core Technologies, the TS330-3200DS printer is an ideal all-in-one unit for creating a range of digital textile applications including backlit fabric displays, SEG frame printing, flags, theatrical backdrops, POP displays, interior décor, and more.
