Mimaki USA, a leading manufacturer of wide format inkjet printers and cutters, announced the availability of Sb54 and Sb310 dye sublimation inks for use in the company’s printers for transfer to textile or hard surface applications.
Developed and manufactured by Mimaki to deliver consistency and reliability, Sb54 and Sb310 inks offer higher density printing that produces more vivid color results than preceding Sb53 and Sb300 inks, respectively.
These new inks also offer enhanced resolvability, improving the print production yield by ensuring stable ink jetting. Output consistency is improved, minimizing agglutination after fixing to prevent color migration and lower vapor emissions during the transfer process.
Moreover, the improved ink stability means daily cleaning is easier and fewer regular cleanings are required, further contributing to cost reduction and higher throughput.
Availability and Printer Compatibility
The inks are available for order now through authorized Mimaki dealers[1].
Sb54 inks (B, M, Y, K, Lbl, Lm) are packaged in 440 ml cartridges and two liter packs, and are compatible with the following models: JV300-130/160, JV150-130/160, CJV300-130/160, CJV150-107/130/160, JV33-130/160, JV5-130S/160S and TS34-1800A.

[1] Customers are encouraged to ensure they are running the latest firmware, and to follow the manufacturer’s instructions on proper preparation before installing new inks.
