Mimaki UJF 6042 braille

[TheCPC]

Hi does anyone know if the UJF6042 prints ADA compliant braille signs?
The mutoh 661 apparently can, so hoping the Mimaki UJF can too?
Cheers

They are working on compliant certification.
As to compatible with build up dimension and spacing that is more design based and the responsibility of the user.

So if the scope of the project is conformance to specs, it can.
If the scope is did they pay in to the full certification process yet, i dont think so.

I just purchased a Mutoh XPJ661 UF, we went to a distributors open house specifically because both Mimaki & Mutoh had reps there.
A couple of the Mimaki reps said it "can" print Braille, once I talked to one of the higher up Mimaki reps that I knew from the past, he said unfortunately I should purchase the Mutoh, they have Mimaki beat right now.

Apparently Mimaki Is having a hard time building up high enough with the proper rounded finish to be certified.

I've opened 3 Mimaki printers with SS21 inks & I've loved all of them & when I purchase another Roll to Roll printer I will definately get another Mimaki, but I will say I've been very impressed with the XPJ 661. & their included Vertelith RIP software seems to do very well.

Yea we find with the testing we do for certain applications that the we can achieve better results with build up and profile with more manual setup than presets.
But the project is coming along, it just isnt a priority at this time.
