Mutoh EMEA introduces DS4 ProFlex sublimation ink

Mutoh Europe has released the DS4 ProFlex, a newly developed dye sublimation ink designed to deliver consistent, high quality production printing results on a wide range of polyester-materials.Created to work with Mutoh’s latest generation of water based sublimation printers – including the XpertJet 1341WR-P, 1642WR-P, and the future 1682SR DS Pro (summer 2025) – the DS4 ProFlex ink offers better colour control, reliable printing, and smoother workflows.

The ink, successor of the DS3 ink, uses a refined formula with new colour ingredients, improved grip on transfer paper and reduced sensitivity to temperature variations during printing. These upgrades translate to more stable colour reproduction, even during long production runs or when working with uncoated or lower cost transfer paper.

Key highlights of DS4 ProFlex ink include:

• Bright, stable colours – even on budget or uncoated sublimation paper.

• Consistent high speed output with stable drop control.

• Faster sublimation activation at 195°C, saving energy.

• Reliable printing during long print jobs or temperature changes.

• Renewed ink formulation to be ready for Eco Passport by Oeko-Tex certification (for safe use in textiles).

• Compatible with both transfer and direct to polyester printing.

DS4 ProFlex comes in degassed 1 kg pouches and is compatible with advanced AccuFine piezo printhead technology. It is suitable for use in amongst others sportswear, fashion, signage, and promotional items.
