The MUTOH XpertJet 1462UF is a UV-LED flatbed direct-to-object printer with a moving gantry, designed for printing on rigid media and objects. It features a large flatbed table of approximately 1,420 mm × 700 mm (55.9″ × 27.5″) and can handle materials up to 150 mm thickness with media weight up to 50 kg/m². The printer is equipped with two staggered print heads in a dual-head configuration: one head handles the standard four process colours (CMYK), the second handles white and varnish/clear.
It supports two UV-LED ink sets: the “US61” next-generation ink which is SVHC- and CMR-free, and UH21 hard/rigid UV-LED ink. Ink supply is via bags (800 ml for most colours; for UH21 white a 500 ml bag option is available). The curing system uses two 4-inch UV-LED lamps, one on each side of the print head, and includes “Local Dimming Control” to adjust curing intensity according to print conditions. Print resolution reaches up to 1,440 × 1,440 dpi, and the printer includes features such as automatic media height detection, a 4-zone magnetic vacuum table to fix the media (or objects) in place, pre-drilled jig holes, etched guide lines, ferromagnetic table surface, and nozzle maintenance functions (automatic nozzle detection, nozzle area select).
Power requirements, interfaces, chassis dimensions, noise levels, and print method (on-demand piezo drive) are detailed in official specifications. Applications range from direct-to-object printing, decorative panels, awards, industrial signage, store decoration, ADA-compliant braille, textured and varnished effects. The printer is bundled with MUTOH’s VerteLith RIP software.
