Expanding What’s Possible with Print
Today’s creative professionals and print providers need solutions that deliver more than just images on a surface; they need tools that unlock new opportunities in décor, photography, signage, and beyond. Dye sublimation printers paired with ChromaLuxe® products make that vision possible, producing vivid, durable prints that bring ideas to life in galleries, offices, healthcare spaces, outdoor installations, and more.
This combination takes the precision, speed, and consistency of modern sublimation technology and pairs it with the premium coated surfaces of ChromaLuxe®. The result? Applications that go beyond traditional print and set a new standard for visual communication.
How Dye Sublimation Works
At the core of this combination is the sublimation process itself. With a high quality sublimation printer, the design is printed in reverse onto transfer paper using specialized sublimation inks. When the printed sheet is placed onto a ChromaLuxe® panel and subjected to high heat and pressure, the ink transforms into a gas. This gas penetrates the proprietary coating of the substrate, embedding the image beneath the surface. Creating a permanent, scratch-resistant, and fade-resistant image.
Unlike traditional surface printing, where ink sits on top of a material, sublimation ensures the image becomes part of the product itself. This unique approach creates depth, vibrancy, and resilience that some standard printing cannot match.
Reliable Printing for Professional Results
In the world of sublimation, consistent results and efficient workflows are critical. That’s where MUTOH technology comes in. Printers like the XpertJet 1642WR Pro and the XpertJet 1682WR are designed to help providers keep pace with demand while delivering high image quality and color accuracy for applications. Whether producing décor, signage, or photographic panels, these systems balance productivity with dependable color performance. Instead of focusing only on specifications, what sets them apart is their ability to bridge creative vision with professional output, ensuring that transfers produced on MUTOH equipment translate into vivid, durable results on ChromaLuxe® surfaces.
