UV Printers FAQs

How much does a UV printer cost ?

Like most items, the costs and price of UV machine vary. There is obviously cheap import machines, however they are very much false economy. UV machines can require more maintenance due to the viscosity of their inks. More recognised brands such as Mimaki and Roland are know for the excellent quality of their UV machines, their reliability and low maintenance. Another thing that can you leave you high and dry with a cheap import is the costs of parts, availability of engineers (not many people know how to fix them,) and also ongoing support should you have any difficulties in using the machine, let alone if you a breakdown and are left with little or no warranty support.

For the smallest Mimaki printers or Roland printers you are looking circa £11,000 to £13,000+vat. Both brands have products ranges that cater for lots of other types of UV printing requirements and have machines going up to circa £120,000+vat.

What can a UV printer do ?

It's more a question of what can't it do! UV inks are incredibly versatile and comes in all kinds of types, from hard inks to flexible inks. The technology can print your design and colours onto slate, ceramic, wood, plastics, glass, acrylic, leather, fabrics, card… almost anything. UV machines come in all different shapes and size too, some can even print onto materials up to 200mm thick such as the Roland S-series or LEF2-300D.

UV printers can be used for promotional product printing, gifts, bespoke products, customisation, corporate branding, high production graphics and signage, packaging mock-ups, online retail.

Is UV print durable ?

In a nutshell, yes! The properties of the ink and the way that it cures means that it creates a layer on top of the substrate and can be very scratch resistant. The durability will ultimately depend on what you are printing onto and how receptive the surface of the product is. As an example, a highly polished glass surface would be more difficult for the ink to adhere to than wood… some adhesion promoters are available that can help with this.

What is the best UV flatbed printer ?

It really depends on what you are looking to use it for and your requirements. Roland and Mimaki have a comprehensive range of UV printers and our team at Signmaster can help you navigate to the best machine for your needs/ requirements 😊
