The XPJ-1682UR, featuring two 8-channel monoblock 1440 nozzle print heads in a staggered setup and two 4-inch (101.6 mm) UV LED lamps, achieves print resolutions up to 1440 x 1440 dpi. Unlike other UV LED printers, it can produce five-layer graphics without media pull back, ensuring impeccable print results.
The machine offers enhanced user comfort with multiple automated calibrations, including bi-directional alignment, media feed adjustment, remaining media tracking and a nozzle area select feature which detects and compensates for missing nozzles. These features will increase efficiency and reduce waste.
