Multi-Substrate Intelligence

The printer's control software includes a material library with pre-set parameters for different types of wood and glass. Switching from printing on a sheet of glass to a wooden panel is as simple as selecting the material profile on the touchscreen. The machine automatically adjusts the ink lay-down and lamp power for optimal adhesion and finish.
High-Opacity White For Glass And Dark Wood

High-Opacity White For Glass And Dark Wood

The active white ink circulation system is critical for both substrates. On clear glass, it creates a canvas for vibrant CMYK colors; on dark walnut wood, it provides a brilliant underbase so that images pop. This reliable white ink performance unlocks the full creative potential of both materials.
Instant Cure For Immediate Handling

Instant Cure For Immediate Handling

The UV LED lamps cure the ink instantly, meaning a printed glass panel or wood sign can be handled, packed, or installed immediately after printing. This speeds up workflow significantly and eliminates the space and time needed for drying racks, a major advantage in busy production environments.
