Proma Print Transfer
PromaPrint is a new thermal transfer film for the transfer of full colour logos onto light or dark textiles.
It can be printed with ecosolvent, solvent inks and then cut with a vinyl cutting plotter. The Mimaki Print and Cut packages are ideal for this product.
Depending on the procedure followed you can obtain either a matt or gloss finish.
PromaPrint is washing resistant up to 60° C.
PromaPrint is suitable for putting all designs and images on clothing, sportswear and fabric. The following is an example of the process. |
1. Print the PromaPrint Flock or Flex with a eco-solvent or solvent printer such as the Mimaki JV3 and JV5. Any brand of this class of printer can be used.
Use the same printing profiles as for polymer vinyl. Set the printing resolution and speed (number
of PASSES) according to the level of details that you wish to obtain. |

2. The printed media is then placed in a cutter with Automatic registration mark sensing such as the Mimaki CG FX or SR series. The Mimaki FineCut software runs from within Corel Draw or Illustrator on the Mac or PC. It is provided free with the cutter so you do not have buy any expensive sign software to drive it. |

3. Weed the cut sticker from the backing.
