Wave Print

The Mutoh Osprey features the new printing technology 'Wave Print', which is truly a revolutionary breakthrough in InkJet Printing.

Developed and patented by Mutoh 'Wave Print' provides impeccable digital printing quality. Ink is laid down in carefully optimised waveforms, not the straight lines used by all the other wide-format inkjet printers.

The result is a drastic reduction or even total elimination of the typical difficulties inherent in conventional digital printing.

This technology means the end of defects such as horizontal banding, step mismatch banding, ink mottle and bleed and the visual effects of missing or misfiring nozzles.

Ink - Durability

• High speed solvent-based double density inks - 4 or 6 colour channels
  (C, M,Y, K, Lc & Lm).
• 2000 ml ink bottles refillable on-the-fly, allowing large autonomy and unattended printing.
• Prints are water, highly abrasion and UV-resistant for up to 5 years outdoor, without lamination.

Dryer:
50 - 70° C; evaporates the solvents - makes the print touch-dry.
