These Blackberry keypads were printed using the Mimaki UV ink jet. We made samples in various colors for the customer to choose the ones they like better. Keys were printed altogether; they are in English and Thai (hieroglyphs are not a problem for Mimaki ink jet software).

These Blackberry covers stand out, don’t they? Whether you like paisley graphics on your PDA or not, the quality of the image is exceptional.

Among other benefits of Mimaki ink jet is the precise control over the look of the finish.
The parts were processed the second time to apply a clear coating, which protects the graphics from wearing out. With Mimaki UJF-605CII ink jet, you have ability to clear coat with any degree of clear. If you cure the transparent ink immediately, the coating will be almost invisible. And prolonging the time before curing, you can achieve various degrees of gloss or matte.
