FACTORS THAT MATTER TO YOUR SELECTION



YOUR PRODUCTS TO PRINT

What is the exact product or objects you want to print? Are they printable? How about the printing quality?

1. The product size and printable size you will print MOST.

You will have specific products to print, probably several different products to print in your mind. But their sizes of the products matter a lot. While measuring the size of your products you will need to keep in mind to measure:

Product Height: the highest point to the lowest point;

Product Length and width: From Edge to edge;

Curved print: The highest and lowest point distance should be within 5mm on the surface to print. Otherwise, you might need attachment example, like the case of 360 degrees rotary printing on cylindrical objects - check video here.

You can find A4, B3, B2, B5 application-oriented printers.

2. How your product buyers will use the printed product?

The consideration of how the product will perform and how the expectation of your customers is are important to secure your business success. The products will be used as EDC (Essential Daily Carry-On) or it will be displayed as a part of the decoration or outdoor signs? Because you will need different solutions for different conditions for color sharpness performances, color durability performances, and printing effects.



SCENARIOS AND ENVIRONMENTS

Where you will work with your printer for production? Where will you use it mostly: in your production house, pop-up store, mall kiosk, production center or at home? You will need to consider about:

1. Your space size and the cost.

Your home room might be not big enough for printer with a size more than 90CM in body size as your door does not allow or even the elevator does not allow the entrance. The cost of same size space in Macy’s and a factory is completely different.

2. Safety and security essentials in your environment.

Malls have strict safety regulations for their consumers/shoppers in terms of physical hurt, smell pollution, and operator’s safety. While at home room or office room, you will also care about the smell and being clean. However if in factory or production house, you might have the whole ventilation system installed already which enables you not have to worry about the smell.



3. The mobility and flexibility.

Will you run the business in different locations or movable devices? Then you will have to take the printer foot print size into the consideration.



WHAT LEVEL OF HARDWARE AND SOFTWARE YOU NEED

THE PRINTER OPERATOR AND HIS / HER BACKGROUND AND SKILLS

You are investing in a device for success and a printer will need to have an owner to work with. So the qualification of your operator is an important factor determining the degree of your success. Is the operator you are appointing to the printer with computer background, photo editing skills, and printing experience? Do you need him or her be equipped with the above quality?



MATERIALS, PRODUCT COLORS AND PRINTING EFFECTS

Is the product in dark color or light colors? You will need to print a white layer onto the materials in dark colors as background. artisJet ECO-DYE solvent system does not provide white ink and the UV printers will be your choice if you need white. Do you want embossed or varnish printing effects? Embossed is technically printed from multiple-layering white ink printing.
