Mimaki USA (Suwanee, GA) announced that the company’s UCJV300 Series with LUS-200 inks will carry the 3M MCS Warranty, the most comprehensive finished graphics warranty in the industry. The warranty will be available in North America this summer.

The 3M MCS Warranty provides full, non-prorated protection for the intended life of each graphic, including fading, cracking, peeling and other aspects of the graphic performance. 3M offers this level of assurance based on its expertise in weathering technology and rigorous testing of ink and printer combinations. The warranty covers up to eight years on some interior finished graphics and up to five years on some outdoor applications such as vehicle wraps when using 3M media and installed using 3M guidelines.

The new UCJV300 Series printers offer in-line cutting capabilities and feature layered print technology, such as four-layer and five-layer for transitional or double facing images. Their prints are instantly-cured at even the highest production speeds. The LUS-200 inks are environmentally friendly and energy efficient, engineered for a wide range of applications, including those with curved surfaces including vehicle wraps and fleet graphics.
