The Mimaki UJV300DTF-75 is a roll-to-roll UV direct-to-film printer for decorating hard, curved and uneven surfaces. It prints onto a two-part film instead of directly onto the object, so it doesn't need a flat printable area like a UV flatbed printer. It is used for customizing promotional goods, electronics and awards.
The printer prints color and white ink onto the adhesive "A Film" and coats it with clear varnish. It then laminates the "B Film" over the top with heat assistance, and the UV ink cures instantly. The result is a ready-to-apply crystal sticker, with no manual weeding or masking tape. To apply it, cut out the design, press the transfer sheet onto the object, and peel away the top layer.
It uses one-touch media loading and custom silicone pinching rollers that help keep the adhesive-backed films from jamming. The transfers suit glass, ceramic, metal, wood, acrylic and leather. UV-DTF film is not suitable for fabric or apparel.
