Mimaki Announces UJF200 Flatbed UV Printers With Fluorescent Ink and Automation Options
Mimaki announced UJF200-3042 and UJF200-6042 flatbed UV printers with fluorescent pink and yellow inks, optional camera and belt automation, and October 2026 sale timing; price and regional availability remain unpublished.
Mimaki’s September 8 announcement introduces the UJF200-3042 and UJF200-6042 flatbed UV printers with fluorescent pink and yellow inks, optional camera and belt automation, and support for workpieces up to 250 mm thick and 20 kg. Sales are scheduled for October; pricing, option costs, and regional availability remain unpublished. This report is source-only.
Two bed sizes share one expanded ink and automation path
Mimaki lists 420 × 300 mm for the UJF200-3042 and 420 × 610 mm for the UJF200-6042.
Mimaki lists EFS-150 fluorescent ink for use with its hard or flexible UV ink systems; actual color, adhesion, durability, and operating cost are not established here.
The options are not described as standard equipment, and Mimaki does not publish their price, local availability, or job-specific production result on the checked page.

The UJF200 expands both the printed effect and the way workpieces can move through production
Mimaki’s UJF200-3042 provides a 420 × 300 mm printable area, while the UJF200-6042 extends it to 420 × 610 mm. Both list fluorescent pink and yellow alongside the published hard or flexible UV ink systems, accept workpieces up to 250 mm thick and 20 kg, and can use optional camera and belt units for alignment, transport, and collection.
Those capabilities are manufacturer statements, not independent production results. Mimaki’s approximate twofold efficiency figure is specifically calculated for the UJF200-3042, A3, color-only Standard mode using combined setup, print, and removal time; it is not a universal throughput claim. The checked page does not publish machine price, camera or belt cost, regional configurations, ink yield, maintenance economics, warranty, stock, or a buyer-specific delivery date. Investigate the series when fluorescent accents, thick or heavy finished goods, or automated handling solve a real job—but require the local channel to price and demonstrate that exact configuration before budgeting.
The useful comparison is the complete job path, not the headline option list
Mimaki lists 420 × 300 mm for the UJF200-3042 and 420 × 610 mm for the UJF200-6042, with print resolutions from 600 to 1,800 dpi. Both list hard ELH-100 or flexible ELS-120 UV ink, EFS-150 fluorescent pink and yellow used with those inks, white and clear channels, and PR-200 primer. The media limit is up to 250 mm thick and 20 kg. The camera detects workpiece shape and position; the belt can connect to transport and collection equipment.
Optional automation matters only when it survives the real fixture and loading cycle: A camera-aligned flatbed and a belt-connected line could reduce manual positioning for repeat work, while fluorescent ink and taller/heavier media broaden the job mix. The announcement does not establish the accuracy, reject rate, labor reduction, maintenance burden, or return on those options in a specific shop.
- What are the local machine, ink, camera, belt, installation, training, and service prices?
- Which configurations and sale dates apply in each region, and when will they actually ship?
- What color, adhesion, durability, cleaning, ink use, and repeatability does the intended substrate achieve?
- What throughput and operator time does the complete fixture, alignment, print, transport, and collection cycle deliver?
Wait for a job-specific proof if:Price, option availability, adhesion, fluorescent output, maintenance, automation reliability, or installed throughput controls the purchase.
Move to a quote only after:The correct bed size and exact ink, fixture, camera, belt, service, and delivery configuration reproduce the intended work at an accepted cost and quality.

Price and prove the exact workpiece path before budgeting
Bring the real substrate, fixture, file, fluorescent or standard ink layers, quality target, and loading cycle so the result reflects the intended job.
Do not rely on October timing or a conditioned efficiency claim until the local channel confirms price, options, installation, support, consumables, and delivery.

Frequently Asked Questions
When will the Mimaki UJF200 printers go on sale?▼
Mimaki schedules the UJF200-3042 and UJF200-6042 to go on sale in October 2026. The checked announcement does not publish pricing, a buyer-specific ship date, option costs, or regional availability, so confirm those terms with the local Mimaki channel.
What do the optional camera and belt add to the UJF200 Series?▼
Mimaki says the camera detects each workpiece’s shape and position and aligns the print image, while the belt can connect to production-line transport and collection. Mimaki says combining them can reduce manual intervention; The Crafty Catsman has not tested that workflow, and neither item should be described as standard equipment.
