The Mimaki UJF-3042MkII EX e is a compact tabletop UV-LED flatbed inkjet printer. It is the EXTRA model of the UJF-3042MkII e and has four print heads instead of three. It supports A3 size (297 mm x 420 mm, or 11.69 in x 16.54 in), objects up to 153 mm tall, and eight ink bottles.
The four-head setup lets it print white, clear and primer ink in addition to the CMYK process colors. Primer application and surface treatment that were done by hand can be completed in a single print setting. The staggered head layout can print two layers of color and spot colors at the same time, depending on the ink setting. Light color inks (Lc / Lm) can be added for smoother gradation and natural skin tones.
The print table moves vertically during printing while the upper unit stays still, which reduces vibration. Two ball screws, one on each side of the table, improve positional accuracy. Droplet placement is precise, which reduces gloss banding. Noise is lower than on the previous model, so the printer can be installed in an office. A sensor detects transparent objects, and objects up to 153 mm thick can be printed directly.
