Printing on Paper Cubes with the Mimaki UJF-3042 UV LED Inkjet Printer

Paper Cubes

Inkjet Printing on paper cubes (click to enlarge)

The Mimaki UJF-3042 UV LED inkjet printer is an impressive piece of technology. Not only does it print at an extremely high resolution and cures through low temperature LED light, but it can also print white and color inks simultaneously! For us here at Inkcups Now, that wasn’t good enough.

We looked at the Mimaki UJF-3042 design and said to ourselves “how can we make this better?” The answer came from some paper cubes a client was interested in printing on. The part was much too tall to fit into the machine and we realized that if we could print on parts up to 6″ in height instead of 2″, we could give the user a much wider range of applications. We got to work on it and 6 months later we developed an answer to this problem: the Proprietary Head Lift System.

The proprietary head lift system raises the machine up to fit larger parts up to 6″ in height. This head lift system is available ONLY from Inkcups Now! Take a look at these awesome cubes that we printed on featuring some of our staff!

This beautifully decorated case and flask was meant as a gift for a “to-be” member of the US National Guard. They were printed on using the Mimaki UJF-605CII flatbed inkjet. Notice the remarkable resolution and how crisp the edges came out!

Before printing on the flask, Gregg used a metal primer wipe and the machine finished it up with a clear coat for that shiny look. The cover of the box was almost an inch high. The Mimaki is able to print on non-uniform objects up to 2 inches high so it easily handled this task.
