NILES, Ill., March 24, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Avery Dennison
today announced the addition of CMYK ink printing capabilities to
its TrafficJet 1638 Printer, providing users an even greater range
of flexibility and functionality to the reflective digital sign
printing system for traffic and work zone applications. The
TrafficJet 1638 is now capable of printing CMYK inks and TrafficJet
spot inks at the same time. This enhancement will allow the
addition of custom graphics or logos to traffic signs and the
ability to create commercial signs on both reflective and vinyl
graphics media.
"Continuous improvement is key to staying ahead of the curve.
The addition of CMYK functionality to the TrafficJet 1638 printer
provides significant value to what is already the reflective
industry's most cost-effective traffic sign printing system," said
John Peck, global technical product
manager at Avery Dennison. "We are excited about the ongoing
evolution in our industry already underway with digital printing,
and we're proud to remain at the forefront with additions like this
that continue to enhance the technology."
The newly-added Mutoh Eco Ultra CMYK inks with overlay will
provide a life expectancy similar to that already available in the
Graphics industry. The TrafficJet spot inks continue to carry the
same warranty period of the underlying reflective sheeting when
combined with Avery Dennison clear overlay film, and are designed
to meet a variety of industry standards for reflectivity and
durability. In order to facilitate this improvement, Avery Dennison
has teamed with SAi, developer of the Mutoh Edition FlexiPrint DX,
to provide a driver update to newer software versions.
Customers looking to upgrade a current TrafficJet 1638
Printer are encouraged to contact their Avery Dennison sales
representative for details.
TrafficJet is a complete inkjet printing system for traffic
safety and reflective sign producers as well as government agencies
that produce or purchase signage. Avery Dennison is the only
eco-solvent inkjet system provider offering a complete 10 and
12-year warrantied, cost-effective, highly flexible inkjet printing
solution with equipment, ink and reflective sheeting for both
permanent and work zone signage. For more information, visit
