The Mimage 1.8m Large Format Latex Mesh Belt Printer is a UV hybrid inkjet printer engineered for high-quality leather printing (including PU leather) and other large-format media up to 1800 mm wide. It features a mesh-belt suction platform, i3200-U print head, multicolor CMYKW output, and uses water-based latex inks.
The printer supports a maximum print width of 1.8 meters (1800 mm) and delivers high-quality output up to 2400 DPI for detailed, sharp images.
It is primarily designed for leather printing (including PU leather) and is also suitable for wallpaper, advertising rolls, cardboard and other uncoated or coated media compatible with latex and OP inks.
The mesh belt suction platform uses an industrial-grade fan to feed and hold media flat and stable during printing, reducing pulling, wrinkling and adhesion issues to ensure smooth, continuous prints especially on flexible materials like leather.
The printer uses fully water-based latex inks and a unique OP ink. The latex inks are eco-friendly (water-based) with no UV or solvent required. The OP ink enables direct printing on uncoated media without a heating step.
For colored or dark materials the printer uses white ink as a base layer to neutralize the substrate color and produce vibrant, accurate colors. For white substrates you can use OP ink only to reduce cost while maintaining good color performance.
The machine is equipped with the i3200-U print head and supports a CMYKW color configuration (Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, Black, White) for multicolor and specialty white printing.
The Mimage printer is compatible with Maintop 6.1 and Photoprint for RIP/driving and design workflow management.
The printer's dimensions are 3535 x 1515 x 4890 mm and it weighs 240 kg. It operates on 220V at 50Hz/60Hz.
Yes. The Mimage printer is described as fully automatic, offering automated feeding, mesh-belt suction transport and adaptive print modes to simplify operation.
No external UV or solvent curing is required. The OP ink allows direct printing on uncoated media without needing pre-heating. Latex inks are water-based and typically require less aggressive curing than solvent or UV systems; specific post-processing needs depend on media and application.
Regular maintenance includes daily nozzle checks and printhead cleaning, using recommended/original latex and OP inks, keeping the mesh belt and feed system free of debris, and operating the printer in a clean, temperature-stable environment. Follow the manufacturer's service schedule for preventive maintenance.
Actual printing speed depends on resolution, RIP settings, media type and application. The product specification does not list a single speed value—contact the supplier with your target resolution and media for expected throughput estimates.
