Choosing a Mutoh

Start with what you make, then width. Ink is the running cost.

Three questions

Answer what you know. The answer stays on this page.

What goes through it?
Does it need to cut?
How wide is the material?

Pick what goes through it and we will name a Mutoh. Our techs run these machines; call 903-462-7700, Monday to Friday 7 to 7 Central, and we will narrow it down with you.

Buy for the widest roll or board you need to load.

1641SR Pro, Pro II or 1682SR Pro?

All three are 64 inch XpertJet eco-solvent printers on MS41 ink. The 1641SR Pro is the single-head CMYK machine. The 1641SR Pro II adds the AccuFine HD Pro head for up to 60 percent faster printing, a front dryer with 20 percent more capacity and a smart take-up that starts and stops with the print. The 1682SR Pro has two staggered AccuFine HD heads and an optional 8-color set with light cyan, light magenta, light black and orange.

Print-only machines pair with a Mutoh ValueCut 2, or with the Vinyl Express Q64 Gen 3 in our printer and cutter packages. Outdoor eco-solvent work is laminated; the 65 inch EnduraLAM 3 covers a 64 inch print and is bundled in the laminator packages.

Mutoh questions, answered

What buyers ask us about Mutoh printers, ink and support

How much does a Mutoh printer cost?

Every Mutoh listing on this site shows its price, from the ValueCut 2 cutters and the XpertJet C641SR Pro printer/cutter to the XpertJet 1462UF flatbed. Printers ship by freight on a pallet; on-site installation and training is included in the packages and listed separately for the 1641SR Pro. Financing is available on the equipment financing page.

What is the difference between the Mutoh XpertJet 1641SR Pro, 1641SR Pro II and 1682SR Pro?

All three are 64 inch eco-solvent printers on MS41 ink with VerteLith RIP. The 1641SR Pro has a single AccuFine head and prints CMYK at up to 1440 dpi. The 1641SR Pro II moves to the AccuFine HD Pro head, up to 60 percent faster, with a stronger front dryer and a smart take-up. The 1682SR Pro has two staggered AccuFine HD heads and can run 8 colors: CMYK plus light cyan, light magenta, light black and orange.

Which ink does my Mutoh printer take?

XpertJet 1641SR, 1641SR Pro, 1641SR Pro II, 1682SR and 1682SR Pro: MS41 in 1 liter bags. XpertJet C641SR Pro and 1341SR Pro, ValueJet 2638X and the ValueJet series: MS31 in 220, 440 or 1000 ml cartridges. ValueJet 1617 and 1628MH: MP31 in 500 ml bags. XpertJet 461UF, 661UF and 1462UF and the ValueJet 1638UH Mark II: UH21 rigid UV-LED ink, with US11 flexible UV-LED ink for roll media on the 461UF, 661UF and 1638UH. Every ink page lists the printers it fits.

Can I use MS31 in a Mutoh printer that ran Eco-Ultra ink?

Yes. MS31 is Mutoh's fourth-generation eco-solvent ink and replaces Eco-Ultra in ValueJet printers as a drop-in: as the Eco-Ultra cartridges run out, load MS31 with no flush and no reprofiling. It matches the Eco-Ultra ICC profiles within 2 delta E and adds a wider gamut, better adhesion and GREENGUARD Gold certification.

Does Mutoh make a print and cut machine?

Yes. The XpertJet C641SR Pro is the first hybrid eco-solvent printer/cutter in Mutoh's lineup: a 24 inch desktop machine that prints at up to 1200 x 1200 dpi and 105 square feet per hour, then contour cuts or perforates through the media at up to 150 mm per second. It runs MS31 CMYK ink in 220 ml cartridges and is sold alone or in Basic, Essentials and Pro packages.

What is Mutoh Intelligent Interweave or wave printing?

Intelligent Interweave, which we call wave printing, is Mutoh's patented print algorithm that lays ink down in overlapping waves instead of straight bands. It virtually eliminates the banding that single-head printers otherwise show and lets the printer hold speed and resolution with one head. The Pro models add i-screen print modes on top of it.

What RIP software comes with a Mutoh printer?

Mutoh's genuine VerteLith RIP, bundled with FlexiDESIGNER MUTOH Edition 21 on most current models. VerteLith adds Clear Tone halftoning, a soft proof that simulates the printed color on screen, a RIP preview that shows the actual dots before output and automatic Pantone coated and uncoated spot colors. It is also sold on its own.

Is Mutoh ink safe to run indoors?

MS41, MS31 and US11 are GREENGUARD Gold certified, the standard for sensitive environments such as hospitals, schools and child care facilities. Mutoh's UV-LED inks are 100 percent solid with no VOCs or HAPs. Follow the operating conditions on each spec sheet; ink and cleaning fluids ship ground only.

What room conditions does a Mutoh printer need?

Mutoh specifies 68 to 89.6 F operating temperature with 40 to 60 percent relative humidity and no condensation, and recommends 71.6 to 86 F for best quality. Standard 100 to 120 V power on the XpertJet SR and UF models; the 1641SR Pro II also accepts 200 to 240 V. Dimensions and weights are on each product page.

Does SignWarehouse service Mutoh printers?

Yes. The SignWarehouse Service Center covers MUTOH printers and MUTOH vinyl cutters along with PrismJET and Mimaki: color management, diagnostics and repair, and training. Remote support is available across the United States and on-site service in the contiguous United States, based on technician availability.

Do SignWarehouse PRO members earn a rebate on Mutoh orders?

Yes. PRO members earn the PRO rebate on Mutoh equipment, ink and parts. PRO free shipping does not apply to freight equipment. Details are on the SignWarehouse PRO page.

Does SignWarehouse sell parts for older Mutoh and ValueJet printers?

Yes. Wiper blades, absorbent and spittoon pads, flushing pads and sponges, maintenance assemblies, waste cassette kits and the UV/Eco maintenance cleaner are stocked for ValueJet 1204, 1604, 1608, 1617 and 16 series machines and PrismJET VJ printers, along with the hi-capacity 1 liter ink adapter and MS31 as the drop-in Eco-Ultra replacement.
