Give your creativity a Glow up - Flagship model in pursuit of "new value" - 330 Series: Eco-solvent inkjet printer
In pursuit of the highest image quality and productivity within the industry, the flagship Mimaki Model 330 Series further enhanced the chassis rigidity upon overall review of the hardware design from ground up, also improving the accuracy of droplet placement up to 650%* in comparison to our conventional product through innovative waveform control technology. The 330 Series also features a new drop technology to suppress banding, meeting the professional requirements of our customers to achieve overwhelming high image quality and high productivity.
1. Realization of sign graphics with high image quality and definition
1-1. Unparalleled accuracy enhancement through the combination of the new toughened chassis and advanced ink drop control technology
- Rigidity of the chassis has been increased to approximately 230% of our conventional product to improve the levelness of platen (ejection surface)
- Difficult-to-control ink droplets with a minimum size of 3pl are dispensed accurately through the evolution of waveform control technology

- The highly accurate drop placement of the 330 Series achieves overwhelmingly high image quality without graininess.
1-2. Additional banding suppression by the "Mimaki Weaving Dot Technology" of new drop technology
- "Mimaki Weaving Dot Technology (MWDT)" is a revolutionary technology that achieves high image quality within the high productivity of the staggered head arrangement, making the banding caused by slight stagger adjustment errors and individual head differences less noticeable.

Example: Magenta solid color printing
1-3. Higher image quality despite low-pass printing due to improved single-line resolution
- Improved single-line resolution and increased number of nozzles results in higher density of dots per pass, allowing for better image quality even in low-pass printing.
1-4. New input profile "Deep Color Natural"
- "Deep Color Natural" is a new input profile that is pursuit for the ease of use to sign graphics industry.
- It realizes the high reproducibility of colors in indoor-outdoor sign graphics, such as eye-catching and vivid solid colors, natural and smooth skin colors, deep red, and neutral gray.
2. Solution for job requiring quick delivery with the high printing speed
- The high productivity of 21.0m²/h in the case of the standard mode using 4 colors and 13.2m²/h in the case of the standard mode using 8 colors are suitable to accomplish print job requiring quick delivery. When outputting a 900 x 1800 mm sign (of PVC) using a high-speed mode of 30.0m²/h by 4 colors, the output of about 10 sheets/h is possible.
3. "XY slitter" capable of reducing post-process work by X-axis & Y-axis sheet-fed cutting
-
The highly precise cutting technology realizes in-line X-axis & Y-axis sheet-fed cutting. The working space for post-print slitting becomes unnecessary for space-saving and enables efficient cut work and accommodates work requiring quick delivery to expand the range of your work.
- In-line processing of X-axis & Y-axis sheet-fed cutting is possible.
4. Evolution of Usability
"Media changer" to which Max. three rolls of media are attachable to enhance your work efficiency
-
Setting three rolls of media at a maximum significantly saves labor for media replacement. Multiple media are attachable, and this creates a space-saving and efficient work environment. Just lightly rotating a handle replaces the media, so anybody can use it easily.
- Even with three media rolls attached, it can be turned with light force.
V-shape cut function
-
By cutting the media into a V-shape with the new "V-shape cut function", a single point can be enough to tape the media when winding it around the paper core. The center of media can be accurately attached to the paper core to reduce human error and avoid media conveyance misalignment.
It can also save material by using a small part of the media and taping at one point. At the touch of a button of printer, it is to be chosen between two methods: "V-shaped cut" or conventional cut.
New maintenance mechanism
- The new maintenance mechanism applies a cloth wiper that increases the removal rate of unwanted ink droplets from the nozzle surface. Compared with conventional scraping rubber wipers, the new wiping system soaks up unwanted ink droplets, reducing ink splattering on the head station.
- By reducing the frequency of maintenance around the head and cap, daily care becomes simple and the machine can always be maintained in optimal condition.
- Easy daily maintenance and cleaning of nozzle surfaces
5. New conveyance mechanism ensures reliable long hour print operation
- The drive motor of the take-up unit is attached to both the left and right sides, which distributes the load on the paper tube and improves the take-up accuracy. Winding accuracy is improved.
- The take-up power has been improved and the mechanism has evolved to be less prone to meandering.
6. "Mimaki Remote Access (MRA)" enables wireless printer operation.
- Enables you to check the status of your machine remotely from a smartphone or PC. This allows you to operate the unit and the panel from a distance, making the work more efficient.
