Sawgrass will showcase the newest addition to its line of Virtuoso HD Product Decorating Systems at Viscom Milan. The Sawgrass VJ 628 System - the industry’s first 25 inch / 630 mm printer optimised for dye sublimation.

“Sawgrass is thrilled to present the only fully integrated sublimation system of this size to the Italian marketplace and Viscom Milan visitors," says Sawgrass President Darcy Mauro. “In direct response to dealer and end-user requests for an alternative to the current 24 inch / 610 mm aftermarket solutions, we worked with Mutoh to develop the VJ 628 System, which offers a wider print area and brings the power of our desktop Virtuoso HD Product Decorating Systems to its next evolution.”
Sawgrass VJ628 picEarlier this year, Sawgrass announced a private-label partnership with Ricoh to bring the first printers designed and manufactured specifically for sublimation to market. The Virtuoso HD Product Decorating System, featuring SG400 (A4) and SG800 (A3+) printers, debuted in January, marking Sawgrass’ first step towards offering fully integrated sublimation printing solutions for desktop production markets.
With the VJ 628, Sawgrass has now added a solution designed specifically for larger format and high volume sublimation production. This system is ideal for interior signage, fine art and photographic reproduction or high volume production of personalised gifts and promotional products.
Viscom Milan visitors will be able to view and interact with the VJ 628 System and learn about its vast array of features, including:
•    High performance industrial printheads capable of printing up to 1440 x 1440 dpi - the highest resolution possible for printers in this category.
•    The new formulation of Sawgrass’ patented SubliJet-HD sublimation inks in both dual CMYK and eight-colour configurations in convenient and reliable single-use cartridges.
•    Prints up to 24.4 in / 620 mm on 24.8 in / 630 mm media, enabling full bleed for 24 in / 610 mm substrates.
