Graphic Systems Division of FUJIFILM North America Corporation announces the launch of the second generation of its successful UVISTAR super wide-format UV roll inkjet printers. The new Uvistar2 series, available in 3.5 meter and 5 meter platforms, builds on the existing UVISTAR range, adding new imaging technologies that provide higher print quality and productivity than ever before. In combination with FUJIFILM Uvijet QK inks, the Uvistar2 produces high quality super wide format print for both indoor and outdoor applications.

UVISTAR series, launched in 2010 as the most flexible, cost efficient printer in its class, produces high quality output at throughput speeds in excess of 3,800 sq ft/hour, on substrates up to 5m wide. The first generation UVISTAR was ideal for outdoor billboard and banner applications where UV cured Uvijet QK inks provided an alternative to solvent roll printing and effectively printed on a wide range of substrates, including polyethylene. Uvistar2 handles the same breadth of media and has been developed to meet the growing demands of POP applications and others.
