MacDermid ColorSpan designs, manufactures and markets performanced-based wide format digital inkjet printers for the pay-for-print segment of the graphic communications market. Since 1985, ColorSpan printers have pioneered innovative features such as the Big Ink Delivery System®, use of six, eight and twelve color ink sets and on-board cameras for automated calibration. Our inks, media, and printers routinely earn top awards in industry competition.

Today, our large format digital color printers include the the performance-based "Gator" products using piezoelectric print heads and solvent pigmented inks, to the highly successful line of UV flatbed printers using UV-cured pigmented inks to print directly onto rigid or roll-fed materials.

The ColorSpan^® 9840uv is an industrial-grade, high-speed, UV-curable flatbed printer designed for printing high quality graphics on inexpensive rigid or flexible roll materials. The ColorSpan 9840uv is a high-performance 98-inch (2.5m) production printer that produces extremely durable, high-quality output for outdoor and indoor applications on media up to 2.75 inches (70mm) thick. Its SolaChrome UV pigmented inks offers an exceptionally wide color gamut for reproducing bright vivid colors and excellent adhesion on the widest range of substrates. What’s more, ColorSpan 9840uv includes outstanding automated features to ensure print quality and enhance your productivity. It’s easy to operate and easy to maintain — and it’s especially smart to own.

What if you could combine the ultra high quality of an aqueous thermal inkjet printer, and the outdoor durability of a solvent printer, with the media flexibility of a UV-curable inkjet printer? Now you can. Meet the ColorSpan 5400UV series of multi-functional inkjet printers. Designed to fit the needs of big and small print shops, they feature a compact design that is big on performance.

They are fast and affordable 54-inch-wide UV printers that produce ultra-high-quality images directly onto an endless variety of inexpensive uncoated materials from rigid display boards to roll-fed media. There’s no need to laminate. No need to transfer or mount. Just print, sell and profit!

The DisplayMaker 98UVX like the 72UVX, features the ½-inch (12.7mm) media thickness and increased Production Quality print speed. But, at 98-inches (2.5m) wide, it offers even more flexibility to printing directly to either rigid or rollfed materials. The 98UVX allows you to maximize your production by printing on 2-meter wide or 8-foot wide sign and display boards. Same great quality and performance, yet it is still less than ½ the cost of other UV printers of this size.

The DisplayMaker® 72UVR has quickly become the fastest selling UV printer in the world. Hundreds of signmakers and screenprinters are benefiting from this versatile UV-curable inkjet printer capable of printing on just about any rigid or rollfed material up to 1/4" thick. Printing directly onto rigid substrates reduces your cost of materials, labor and the turnaround time to produce stunning display graphics. Designed with 16 MicroQuad™ industrial-quality long-life piezo-electric printheads, it delivers high-quality images, at fast production speeds, yet its 1/3 the cost of other UV printers.
