Specs & features from Mimaki’s product/spec pages and US spec sheet.
The UJV300DTF-75 brings UV-DTF into a dependable, shop-friendly 25″ roll device. You get crisp text at 1,200 dpi, strong white, and the option to add Clear for texture/pop—great for premium stickers and object decoration.
🔍 Performance Analysis — Mimaki UJV300DTF-75 review
With two staggered piezo heads and up to 1,200 dpi, the UJV300DTF-75 hits clean edges and fine micro-type on UV-DTF films. CMYK lays down smoothly, White provides the opacity needed for dark substrates, and Clear enables spot gloss or tactile effects for premium decals and product skins. The compact 25″ format is efficient for short-run merch and prototyping while keeping roll handling easy for a single operator.
🔗 Connectivity, RIP & Workflow — Mimaki UJV300DTF-75 review
RasterLink 7 manages queues and white/clear layers; Ethernet (1G) is recommended for long jobs and multi-user access. UV-DTF’s two-part film (glue + transfer) simplifies application to curved or textured items where direct UV printing can struggle—think bottles, cases, or promo goods. Building named presets per film and laminating profile keeps results repeatable across operators.
💰 Running Costs & Uptime — Mimaki UJV300DTF-75 review
UV-DTF doesn’t require powder/curing like pigment-DTF; costs hinge on film set, white coverage, and clear effects. White ink circulation reduces waste from idle periods, and 1-liter bottles suit sustained runs. For accurate job costing, log ink/film by SKU in the RIP and standardize lamp power/speed per media.
🎯 Who Should Buy It? — Mimaki UJV300DTF-75 review
Choose the UJV300DTF-75 if you sell decals and object decoration (curved/uneven surfaces) or want premium effects with Clear. If you mainly press garments, Mimaki’s heat-transfer-pigment DTF models (TxF series) are a better fit; if you need huge gang sheets and apparel throughput, look at 31.5″–63″ TxF models.
