Everything You Need to Know about UV LED Printing

Maybe you’ve never had a UV printer and are wondering about the benefits. Perhaps you already have a UV printer and are ready to move up and speed up to boost production. Here’s your chance to learn about the latest technology to grow your business.

Let’s start with the benefits of UV LED print technology.

  1. A broad range of applications — Minimal heat output makes it easy to print on heat-sensitive media. Limited heat equals stable calibration.
  2. High productivity — No lamp warmup time eliminates wait time.
  3. High durability for cost savings — Long-lasting LEDs, so no lamp change downtime and cut cost of consumable.
  4. Energy savings — Low energy consumption with LEDs for power savings.
  5. Sustainability — LED lamps don’t contain mercury so they eliminate mercury disposal. LEDs don’t produce ozone gas so no need for extraction by ventilation.
