Epson SureColor V1000 — UV flatbed on A4

Printing straight onto the object, with the ink cured by UV light. No transfer paper and no heat press. Six channels: the four process colours, a white, and a varnish — clear ink that prints the finish, gloss or matte, in the same pass.

The machine

One machine, listed on request

The V1000 is quoted rather than priced in the shop, because the configuration depends on what you print on.

How it differs

UV printing next to sublimation

If you already run a sublimation machine, this is the shortest way to see where UV sits.

Sublimation

Print, then press

  • Two steps: print on transfer paper, press the image into the material.
  • Up to 163 cm wide, so it scales to roll work.
  • Four or six channels, no white and no varnish.

UV flatbed

Print straight onto the item

  • One step: the ink is cured on the object itself with UV light.
  • A4 bed — a desktop machine, not a production line.
  • Six channels, including white and varnish — the varnish prints the gloss or matte finish itself.
  • Its own ink and its own wear parts — nothing is shared with the sublimation line.

What you order with it

The V1000 needs its own ink and parts

Six ink channels Cyan, magenta, yellow and black, plus white and varnish. All six are UltraChrome UV, sold per cartridge.
Two wear parts A wiper unit and an air filter. Both are in the range as separate products.
Nothing shared with sublimation UV ink does not go into a sublimation machine and the other way round. They are separate lines.

Print it yourself, or have it printed

Or let us print it

A machine is not the right step for everyone. If you need a few hundred, or one job you cannot make yourself, we will do it for you — under your name.

Production service

White-label, under your name

Uviqs

Printed bottles, round work

Our own service for printed bottles. You design online in layers and the tool turns that into a print-ready TIFF; we print and deliver to you, under your name and from 5 pieces.

Note: this is a bottle printer, so round work. The V1000 on this page is a flatbed for flat work up to A4. One does not replace the other.

We bought that printer ourselves And we ran into plenty before it worked: a UV print is a layered TIFF of white, colour and varnish, and building one correctly is specialist work. Printing a full round surface cost us test round after test round. So we know it from doing it, not from a brochure. Read why we bought our own UV printer

Questions

Questions about the V1000

The four questions we get most often about this machine.

Why is there no price on the page?

The V1000 is listed as price on request. Tell us what you want to print on and we will quote the machine for you. Request a price

What does the white channel do?

White is an ink in its own right on a UV machine, which a sublimation printer does not have. The UV ink page covers the white and the varnish. View UV ink

Can I run UV ink in my sublimation printer?

No. They are different machines with different ink. The V1000 is a machine of its own, next to whatever sublimation printer you already have. Read how it differs from sublimation

What maintenance parts does it use?

We stock the wiper unit, which also fits the V2000, and the air filter for the V1000. When they need replacing is in Epson’s own documentation — the link to Epson support is on our support page. View UV maintenance
