Combination of MUTOH‘s unique traditional technology and the latest unique technologies
achieve high-precision and high-quality printing

The 3 Key Building Blocks enable high quality printing
AccuFine is a new extra wide and high-density piezo print head that dramatically improves the ink
dot landing accuracy, providing high quality solid printing with less banding even at high speed. It also
reduces the misalignment of the ink landing position, thereby mitigating image quality degradation.

*This is different from the actual ink arrangement.

i-screen, the new print effect created from MUTOH’s Intelligent Interweave printing technology,
optimizes the AccuFine print head. By arranging the dots in a way that takes into account how theylook, this reduces banding for smoother print images.

MUTOH’s genuine RIP software, VerteLith, maximizes the performance of the XpertJet 1682SR Pro.
It provides more beautiful image quality with less variation in color density and smoother gradations.

Other key features of the XpertJet 1682SR Pro are as follows.
 MUTOH's unique technologies for automation and efficiency
・ Bi-Directional adjustment, DropMaster2
A built-in sensor on the carriage automatically calibrates bi-directional alignments, andsaves time and reduces validation in adjustment among different operators.
・ Media feed adjustment, FEED MASTER
By printing a print pattern and reading it with a sensor, paper feed correction is performed
automatically.
・ Nozzle selection function, Nozzle Area SelectNozzle area select temporarily prints using selected areas of active nozzles when clogged
nozzles fail to recover.
・ Media roll balance management, Media tracker
Media tracker manages the remaining media by printing barcodes before removing roll inuse. It will read the barcode when reloading that roll. Streamlines management ofremaining capacity for multiple media.
Four head height settings
The optimal print head height can be selected from 4 stages depending on the media
being used. This reduces the risk of contact, and also provides stable print quality.

Partial pressure cancel mechanism
To prevent cockling, the pressure rollers can be individually canceled to finely adjust thepressure applied to the media. A wide range of media types can be fed under optimalconditions.

MUTOH Status Monitor (MSM) enables check the printer’s operation status in real time.

The XpertJet 1682SR Pro is paired with MUTOH MS41 eco solvent ink thatexcels in color reproduction, weather resistance, and ease of maintenance.
The ink has been certified UL GREENGUARD Gold, meaning it doesn’t emit
harmful levels of chemicals into indoor. Ink bags of 1,000ml and 300ml areavailable for each color of CMYKLcLmLk, and orange ink is available in 300mlbag only.

MUTOH makes continuous efforts to provide diverse needs of customers adding the XpertJet
1682SR Pro to the market.
