Hi all,
I'm really new to this forum.
I'm a graphic designer and currently running a DTG printer as additional income.
I'm thinking to get a UV LED Flatbed printer to print on hard substrate.
I was considering Roland LEF-12 but the price really surprised me so I'm now starting to consider Chinese UV LED printer (cost only about $6000-8000), Any one has experience with the chinese uv flatbed?
I would like to ask few questions regarding this machine.
These are my questions:
1. How is the overall maintenance? Is it costly? Especially with the white ink (with DTG, white ink is real issue)
2. How hard is it to print using this machine? any preparation or special curing? Is it easy to scratch on the printed surface?
3. How is the cost?
4. I might not be printing too often, is the ink has shelf life?
That's all for now.
Many thanks in advance
Will
