Press release from the issuing company

Phoenix, AZ - MUTOH INDUSTRIES LTD. (Headquarters: Setagaya-ku, Tokyo, President: Yasuhiko Isobe; hereafter referred to as “MUTOH”), a subsidiary of MUTOH HOLDINGS CO., LTD. that develops, manufactures, and sells large-format inkjet and 3D printers, is introducing a new eco-solvent inkjet printer, the XpertJet C641SR Pro, the first Print & Cut machine in MUTOH’s catalog.

The XpertJet C641SR Pro is a compact and lightweight printer, that achieves high image quality and high productivity by adopting the acclaimed “AccuFine” print head from the XpertJet Pro series. Additionally, the newly developed cutting function supports “contour-cut” and “through-cut” cutting types. With four different output methods, this machine can be used for a wide variety of applications and purposes, expanding the range of your business. The XpertJet C641SR Pro delivers the highest “Made in Japan Quality” to stickers, HTV apparel, posters, vehicle graphics, banners, decals, indoor and outdoor signs, POP, and more.

Print head
With the increased size in comparison to conventional print head models, AccuFine’s nozzle row length improves the printing speed.

Productivity is improved by up to 131% compared to previous machines which increases production efficiency.

Moreover, the ink droplets are denser than with conventional print heads, which leads to tremendous improvement in ink landing accuracy. By reducing ink landing misalignment, image quality deterioration is reduced, which enables high-quality printing with little banding even at high speeds.

MUTOH’s first ever Print & Cut printer
The XpertJet C641SR Pro comes equipped with a newly developed cutter. This model supports both “contour-cut” and “through-cut” cutting methods that you can use according to your needs.

New additions

Other features

XpertJet C641SR Pro comes equipped with a manifold of key features.
This model meets users’ demands with its various functionality and usability, making daily workflow more efficient.

MUTOH's unique technologies for automation and efficiency
Automatic Bi-Directional Adjustment DropMaster 2- The built-in sensor on the carriage automatically calibrates bi-directional alignments, saves time, and reduces validation in adjustment among different operators.

Automatic media feed adjustment FEED MASTER- A printing pattern is printed and read by a sensor to automate media feed correction.
Media roll balance management Media Tracker- Before replacing the media, a barcode indicating the remaining amount is printed on the media. When it is loaded, the barcode is read to determine the remaining amount of media. This makes the management of multiple media rolls more efficient.

Origin position setting- The print position can be changed on the printer, so media space can be used without waste.

Two-stage head height adjustment function- By selecting the optimum print head height and improving compatibility with media, the risk of contact is reduced and stabilized print quality is achieved.

MUTOH Status Monitor- Software that allows you to check the printer status in real-time on your computer.

The eco-solvent MS31 four-color (Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, Black) ink which is used with this model has excellent color development, weather resistance, and functional reliability.

This ink has the U.S. environmental standard certification GREENGUARD Gold and has been proven to not exhaust harmful chemicals.
