Good uv printer

[Craig Keller]

Whats a good safe choice on a uv printer that can print golf balls, full wrap cups up to 4in dia, and also print uv dtf stickers? Anyone got there suggestions from there experience? Procolor? EufyMake? Others?

Those are hobby machines and not meant for production. You should be looking at brands like Mimaki or Roland compact flatbeds with a kebab.

Helped some folks setup and run 3 head Chinese flatbeds, but they end up spending $5k on the printer and another couple grand calling me at all hours for help before up and running.

I just got into drinkware printing and trying to stay under 10k I ended up going with Laser toner. Seems like a solid UV setup from Roland or mimaki would be in the 40k range.

Almost bought the EufyMake but the ink cost and ink waste scared me away.

Toner seems to be solid, proven tech and durable (dishwasher safe)

Got the Crio 8432WDT, crazy how a regular looking laser printer is over $7k

UV ink is typically a bad idea for food contact surfaces and clothing. So toner is usually a safe alternative, or sublimation.

I noticed all of the UV printers have a tiny hidden disclaimer "not for food consumption after printing"
