Mimaki reports that it enjoyed 'major success' at this year's drupa, with 'strong lead generation' and sales as well as a positive reception for the new products it launched at the show.

The unveiling of Mimaki's JFX500 UV-LED flat-bed printer was a 'major attraction' to the stand and garnered plenty of positive feedback, the company says. There was also interest in the JV400 series, which includes the JV400-130/160LX latex printers and the JV400-130/160SUV machines with solvent UV inks, with the latter 'powerhouse printer' attracting a 'significant amount of attention'.

Mimaki's textile solutions, used to print costumes for Benny Landa's pre-show dancers, also proved popular as Mimaki's Polish dealer sold three units during the show.
