EFI Announces New VUTEk h+ Series Hybrid Printers


New Hybrid Printing Capabilities with the EFI VUTEk h+ Series

Electronics For Imaging, Inc. (EFI) has announced the new EFI VUTEk® h3+ and VUTEk h5+ hybrid flatbed/roll-fed LED printers, designed to boost productivity, print quality, and media handling. The upgraded VUTEk h+ series builds on the high-performance VUTEk h platform, incorporating advanced features to meet the demands of high-volume, superwide-format printing in signs and display graphics.


Key Improvements and Green Technology

Todd Zimmerman, EFI’s SVP/GM of Display Graphics & OEM Ink, highlighted that the VUTEk h+ series enhances ease of use and supports environmentally friendly LED technology. Key upgrades include improved media handling, with a double-strength vacuum table for handling both thicker and thin materials, and new media hold-down rollers for stability.


Customizable Color Configurations

VUTEk h+ series offers several color configurations, such as:

  • CMYKcmyk + White + Clear

  • CMYK x 2 + 2 White

  • CMYK x 2 + Clear

These configurations now include UltraClear Coat and Endura Clear inks, offering decorative and protective finishes in gloss or matte.


Innovative Gloss+ Print Mode and Thermoformable Inks

The series also introduces Gloss+, a software feature for adding gloss effects to prints without clear ink. Additionally, new LED-curable Thermo-formable inks, compatible with VUTEk h+ printers, are ideal for heat-formed applications due to their excellent elongation and adhesion properties.


Future Enhancements and Upgrades for Existing Users

More updates, including double-sided printing capabilities for block-out applications, are expected soon. Current VUTEk h3 and h5 owners can upgrade their units to enjoy many of these new features.
