M&R Introduces the M-Link X Direct-to-Garment Digital Printer

M&R (SGIA Expo Booths #3445, 3745) is pleased to introduce the M-Link X direct-to-garment digital printer. M-Link X prints full-size images on white shirts in 30 to 45 seconds and full-size images on dark shirts in less than a minute. M-Link X’s image quality is made possible by M&R's proprietary i-Color^™ RIP Software, exclusive Absolute Position^® Technology (APT), and DuPont^™ Artistri^® BRITE digital textile inks. In no time at all, users can be turning out amazingly sharp text and line art with remarkable blending and photographic transitions. Print modes include conventional two-pass printing; bi-directional Y-axis printing; and OPEP^™, or One-Pass Express Printing. On black garments, Black Color Mode prevents the printer from laying down white underbase and black ink on black image areas. On colored garments, Economy Color Mode prevents the printer from laying down white underbase where black will be printed. This saves ink and increases print speed for printed garments that are softer, more breathable, and much closer to water-based screen printing.
