Mutoh’s new MUBIO INK is recognized by the EPA Design for the Environment program. The ink is composed of 80% plant derived substances, contains no harmful VOC’s and has faster drying times. The ValueJet Hybrid features drop–on–demand Micro Piezo Inkjet Technology. It is a 4-color printer with a maximum resolution of 1440 dpi, and automatic media thickness detection. The MUBIO INK is available in 880 ml ink packs. Using Dynamic Variable Dot Imaging Technology, each ink droplet is individually adjusted to provide high speed and high quality with low ink consumption. Each head allows print resolutions of 1400 x 720 dpi, 1440 x 1440 dpi, 540 x 720 dpi and 720 x 720 dpi. The new printers incorporate Mutoh’s Intelligent Interweaving print technique (i² - pronounced i-squared). Mutoh has taken a totally new approach with its i² technology. Ink is laid down carefully in optimized wave forms, not in straight lines used in traditional printing practices. This approach drastically reduces or even eliminates typical inkjet printing artifacts such as horizontal banding, step mismatch banding, ink mottle, etc. In short, i² will allow bi-directional printing of all images, even for the most critical jobs. The new ValueJet 1608 Hybrid printer will be delivered standard with an ink starter kit (2 x 4 CMYK) and table. Pricing is TBD and the printers will become available for shipping near the end of January 2008. About Mutoh |
