How much does a cylinder UV printer cost?
Pricing depends on print size, automation level, printhead configuration, ink channels and production speed. Send your product size, material and expected output for a suitable configuration.
Can you print tapered tumblers?
Yes. Raycolor cylinder UV printers can be configured for tapered drinkware, and automatic taper compensation helps keep artwork aligned on conical products.
