ell-known for its innovative approach, Mimaki has recently
introduced two exciting solutions: the Mimaki TxF150-75 direct-to-film printer and the Mimaki TS100-1600 wide format dye sublimation printer. These cutting-edge technologies offer fresh opportunities for print professionals, providing new avenues for creativity, efficiency, and profitability.
Unleashing Creative Potential The TxF150-75 is Mimaki’s first direct-to- film printer, designed to deliver exceptional results for garment decorators. The new machine comes equipped with innovative features that expand creative horizons and boost productivity.
Providing an easy and affordable process for decorating apparel, most commonly T-shirts and other garments, the TxF150- 75 responds to the market need for a reliable, stable DTF solution. Equipped with numerous Mimaki Core Technologies, these assist in delivering a high-quality result, consistently stable operation and minimal user intervention during the printing process. Guaranteeing safety and environmental commitments, the new Mimaki inks used in the Tx150-75 are OEKO-TEX ECO PASSPORT certified. Offering a versatile garment decorating solution, the Mimaki DTF printer works on cotton, polyester and polyester blended materials, and thanks to utilising white ink, the print can be applied to both light and dark coloured fabrics. Delivering a timesaving workflow compared to other garment printing methods, the new TxF150- 75 removes the labour-intensive process of screen creation, and the required weeding in traditional vinyl heat transfer. The DTF printing production process with the Mimaki TxF150-75 is simple: The design is printed directly onto a special film on the printer, then, using a suitable cure unit, sprinkled with hot-melt powder, heated and dried. The print is then ready to be applied to the fabric using a heat press.

The TS100-1600’s 1.6m printing width enables users to work with wide format transfer paper rolls, maximising productivity, reducing costs and minimising material waste. The TS100’s enhanced precision and image quality ensure sharp and vibrant prints, once transferred onto polyester textiles such as sportswear and apparel materials.
