Key Features of the XpertJet 1462UF

Both high productivity and high image quality in bi-directional printing enable faster 2-layer printing Two new 4” wide UV LED lamps
Newly developed 4-inch wide UV-LED lamps are placed on both sides of the print head.
Combined with "UV-LED local dimming control technology," which individually controls the UVLED lamp irradiation for each segment according to the printing conditions, it achieves optimal
ink curing even in bi-directional printing.

 Dual print heads in a staggered setup
Staggered dual print heads ensure high productivity. The first head prints CMYK, the second headprints white/varnish, which enable 2-layer printing without speed loss. It is also ideal for brailleand 2.5D structure prints. *ADA-compliant Braille printing will be supported in North America.

The 2nd head:
White / Varnish

The 1st head:
CMYKPrinting speed is the same for single layer printing (color or white/varnish only) and 2-layer printing (4C+white or varnish).
