Mimaki Europe, a leading manufacturer of industrial inkjet printers and cutting plotters, was presented with three EDP Awards at the association’s 2026 awards ceremony, which took place as part of the FESPA Global Print Expo. Mimaki was honoured in the following categories:
Best Flatbed/Hybrid Printer: UJ330H-160 Hybrid UV Printer
Best Direct-to-Shape: UJF-7151 plusII e UV-LED Flatbed Printer
Best Textile Roll-to-Roll Printer: TS330-1800 Sublimation Printer
The first of the three awards went to the UJ330H-160, Mimaki’s latest hybrid UV inkjet printer, designed for sign makers and print service providers. The UJ330H-160 combines roll-to-roll and rigid panel printing in a single platform and supports a wide range of graphic applications, from signage, window graphics and banners to wallpaper, POS displays and rigid panels. Stable media handling, quick switching between roll-to-roll and rigid panel production, and UV capabilities – including white, clear and multi-layer printing – make it, according to Mimaki, a practical solution to the demand for cost-effective production.
“Winning three EDP Awards is a significant recognition of the technical excellence of our innovations, but above all, we are proud of what our customers can achieve with these technologies,” commented Danna Drion, General Manager of Marketing and Product Management at Mimaki Europe, who accepted the awards on behalf of Mimaki at FESPA. “The UJ330H-160 is an excellent example of this: innovation based on real production requirements. Print shops are looking for flexibility, quality and a smarter use of space and investment.”
Mimaki’s UJF-7151 plusII e was recognised by the EDP for direct printing onto objects. The printer was developed for industrial precision and combines high-resolution UV-LED print quality with the ability to print directly onto a wide variety of objects and materials.
