ONYX Graphics Adds Support for Mimaki JFX200-2513 & JV300 Series Printers
Monday 18. May 2015 - ONYX Graphics, Inc., today announced it has added support for both the Mimaki JFX200-2513 and Mimaki JV300 series printers. The drivers, and twelve other Mimaki drivers, are now available for all ONYX Graphics version 11.1.2 rip and workflow software products.
The JFX200-2513 flatbed printer is the smaller footprint model with the capability to print onto thick substrates; it offers the ability to produce a diverse range of prints for both indoor and outdoor use in high quality and speed. It is ideally suited for applications such as point of sale, double-sided displays, signs, interior décor, glass and metal panels and more. Its 2.5m x 1.3m landscape-oriented format is small enough to fit into most sign and graphic print shops. White and clear (varnish) inks are available standard. The UV-LED lamps offer reduced energy consumption and a longer lamp lifetime.
The JV300 Series printers include newly developed print heads in a staggered configuration and inkjet technology with precise dot control that delivers higher productivity without sacrificing quality. The JV300 Series printers include eight ink channels and a variety of colors, such as orange and light black, to provide the flexibility to produce nearly any application. It uses fast-drying, eco-solvent inks that can print on hundreds of media choices for signage and graphic applications. Optionally you can install dye-sublimation inks for textile, apparel and soft signage production.
ONYX Graphics recommends ONYX ThriveTM print workflow software for the Mimaki JFX200 and JV300 series printers. ONYX Thrive software is a scalable solution based on Adobe PDF Print Engine technology enabling users to achieve brighter, more vibrant images; reduce manual intervention and eliminate repetitive tasks. ONYX Thrive software includes network licensing and a production manager that enable users to customize their print workflow and easily grow with business demands.
When using the Mimaki JV300 series printer with dye-sublimation ink for textile applications, the ONYX Textile Edition module for Thrive is recommended. Features such as Step & Repeat, Colorways and Ink Configuration Builder make this the ideal solution for all types of textile printing including wall art and décor. ONYX Textile Edition software includes ONYX Color – Onyx Graphics’ proprietary color engine. ONYX Color delivers an expanded color gamut that gives users the ability to match corporate colors, achieve deeper darks and print a wider range of colors. Print service providers can achieve predictable, vibrant results each and every time with ONYX Textile Edition software and Mimaki printers.
