TheMagicTouch, a supplier of digital transfer consumables and associated hardware, is supplying the new OKI C711WT printer with white toner together with new WoW7.2 heat transfer material.

The company said that the new toner delivers very good opacity and therefore a very high ‘white’ factor for non-fabric hard surface applications such as folders, mugs, binders, leather and polyurethane coated products, as well as garments and textiles.

The Wow transfer paper has always been suited to use on dark substrate. The latest WoW7.2 reduces production to a two stage process, which it says is a very affordable solution in conjunction with the new OKI printer. It can be used for all garment decoration regardless of fabric colour or type, without any cutting or weeding needed. With a minimum application temperature of 110°C it overcomes the potential scorching mark of a heat press on the new popular ‘high tech’ performance fabrics and garments, said TheMagicTouch

‘We will deliver the printer with an added value beyond the factory standard,’ said Jim Nicol, managing director of TheMagicTouch in the UK. ‘Using our unique print utility software SpaceControl with the C711WT enables the user to print white-only with the click of a button. Most important, the SpaceControl software will allow total control over the white toner, ie where and how much is printed.’

He said the new white toner can also be used with existing transfer papers, allowing the decoration of any colour of materials, products and substrates. The company’s CPM papers can be used to decorate dark colour mugs, diaries, leather, PU products, phone and gadget covers, binders and various types of folders with white’ as an extra colour within the design. White also extends to the tattoo paper for skin and nail decoration, he said, as well as CL media stock for the production of stickers and decals with opaque full colour definition for the sign industry.

The C711WT printer with SpaceControl print utility software will be available for delivery during October, priced at £1995.
