Mimaki JFX220-2515 4' x 8' UV-LED Flatbed Printer

Bring rigid signage, retail displays and decorative panels into one direct-to-substrate workflow. The Mimaki JFX220-2515 combines a 2,500 x 1,500 mm printable area with four staggered printheads and resolution modes up to 1,200 dpi. Its ANCHOR vacuum table and automatic positioning pins simplify the preparation work between jobs.

Choose the configuration around your materials. Supported hard or flexible UV inks and optional fluorescent colors, white, clear and primer let you plan for the applications you actually produce. Ask GPI to evaluate your substrates and specify the installed ink set before ordering.

Published U.S. MSRP: $99,995. Request a complete equipment quote for availability, configuration, freight and services. This is not an installed-package total; example printed products are not included.

Download note: The original manufacturer specification sheet below is revision 09/15/26, not an operating manual. It contains inconsistent unit pairs for machine dimensions, weight and operating temperature. Confirm final installation data with GPI/Mimaki; see Details and Instructions for guidance.

ANCHOR TECHNOLOGY concentrates vacuum beneath the substrate instead of allowing uncovered areas to draw air. This reduces masking and preparation when loading different media sizes, helping operators transition between jobs with fewer manual setup steps.

Touchscreen-controlled pop-up pins help locate sheets consistently. They rise for loading and retract before printing, supporting repeatable registration without leaving pins in the print path.

Test difficult media first. Extreme warping or lifting can prevent secure hold-down. Confirm flatness, holding and printhead clearance on the actual substrate rather than assuming every warped or irregular sheet will print successfully.

The 98.4 x 59.1-inch printable area accommodates standard 4 x 8-foot sheets, with extra depth for layout flexibility. Up to 4 inches of media thickness expands the range of suitable boards, interior materials and finished pieces that can be considered for direct decoration.

Printable area and hold-down area are different. The published 98.4 x 76-inch media area provides space for positioning and holding; it does not extend the artwork beyond the 98.4 x 59.1-inch print limit.

Plan the load, not just the size. Mimaki lists 50 kg per square meter or less, approximately 10.2 lb per square foot, distributed evenly. Consider fixtures, surface geometry and loading access, and test adhesion and end-use durability. Fitting below the height limit alone does not make an object printable.

For four-color printing, Mimaki publishes 452 sq. ft./hr (42 m²/hr) in production mode at 600 x 600 dpi, or 226 sq. ft./hr (21 m²/hr) in high-quality mode at 1,200 x 1,200 dpi. Select the mode around viewing distance, detail and the finished application.

Compare like-for-like output. These are manufacturer test figures for the specified four-color modes, not guaranteed throughput for white, clear, fluorescent or multilayer work. Coverage, print quality, ink configuration and material handling all affect your daily production.

An icon-based color touchscreen brings media setup and printer controls to the machine. RasterLink8 supports job preparation and specialty-print workflows; confirm the supplied software license, workstation and training scope in your equipment quote.

Available EFS-150 fluorescent pink and yellow add vivid accent colors to retail displays, event graphics and decorative work. Use them selectively where the color treatment is an important part of the design.

Specify the channels before purchase. Fluorescent inks are used in supported combinations with ELH-100 hard UV or ELS-120 flexible UV. Availability of white, clear, light colors and primer also depends on the installed setup; the full list of supported inks does not mean every color is installed together.

Approve a physical sample on your own substrate under the intended lighting. Screen previews cannot fully represent fluorescent appearance or confirm application-specific durability.

Layered UV printing can give a flat graphic a tactile surface. Supported 2.5D Texture Maker and emboss workflows provide options for decorative panels, raised graphic details and clear-finish effects when the appropriate ink set is installed.

Design and production need to be considered together. The effect depends on artwork, ink configuration, substrate and print conditions. Additional layers change production time, so evaluate a representative job rather than applying standard four-color speed figures to dimensional work.

Mimaki also lists LD1-LD4 modes for uneven-surface applications, with up to 20 mm height variation in supported conditions. This mode-dependent capability does not increase the 4-inch media-thickness limit. Request sample evaluation before committing to recessed or uneven surfaces, and validate applicable requirements separately for regulated signage.
