The Mutoh XpertJet 461UF is a compact UV-LED flatbed printer designed for small-series production and direct-to-object printing. It features a maximum printable area of 483 × 329 mm (19″ × 13″) and can accommodate substrates up to 70 mm thick on its standard flatbed table. When the table is removed, object height capacity increases to approximately 150 mm. The unit uses UV-LED curing lamps with a segmented 2-inch wide lamp composed of six individually controllable segments, enabling differentiated varnish effects (glossy, matte, semi-gloss) and texture or structure printing in a single pass.
Ink types include rigid and flexible UV-LED inks (Mutoh UH21 for rigid/hard substrates; US11 for flexible/soft ones) with a configuration of either 4 colours (CMYK) or 6 colours (CMYK + White + Varnish). Drop-on-demand piezo printhead technology is employed, with variable drop sizes in the range of about 3.7 to 25.8 picolitres. Print resolution modes include 720, 1080, and 1440 dpi. The printer supports an optional vacuum bed for better media hold and flatness, and has a manual height adjustment mechanism. Power consumption during printing is under 195 W. It includes Mutoh’s VerteLith™ RIP software bundled with FlexiDESIGNER Edition. Typical applications encompass gift items, personalised objects, small signage, decorative panels, and prototyping. The XpertJet 461UF is suitable where high-detail printing on rigid or flexible substrates is required, with added finishing options via varnish and white ink layers.
