UV Printers GJ5038L | Best Small Large Format Printers & UV Flatbed Printer
Key Points
- Compact 600mm x 900mm flatbed UV printer with 70mm media clearance
- Powered by 6pcs (1x4+2) Ricoh 2220 printheads for exceptional CMYK + White + Varnish printing
The GJ5038L UV Printer is a highly versatile large format printer and wide format printer designed for businesses entering the rigid substrate market. Featuring a 600mm x 900mm print area and equipped with genuine Ricoh 2220 printheads in a 1x4+2 arrangement, this UV flatbed printer handles custom rigid sheets and small-format materials end to end — no pre-treatment, no waiting, no wasted time. It is the best UV printer for operations that need high-margin custom printing capabilities, offering unparalleled quality and reliability as core digital printing equipment.
As a compact UV printer machine, the GJ5038L supports CMYK, White, and Varnish inks across wood, glass, acrylic, metal, and ceramic tiles. Its direct-to-substrate workflow — print and UV-cure instantly — is far more profitable than the cutting and applying required by a standard flex printing machine used for outdoor banners and vinyl stickers. For commercial printers, a print on demand gift business, or a custom decor shop, the GJ5038L represents the perfect entry point into industrial large format printers. Whether you are doing small-run poster printing on wood panels, customized sticker printing, or high-end promotional items, this digital inkjet printer delivers the precision and speed that separate serious custom operations from standard sign shops.
Key Advantages of GJ5038L UV Printer
✔ Compact 600x900mm Flatbed Size
The 600mm x 900mm print area fits easily into smaller shops while handling standard-sized rigid materials. For commercial printers needing large format printing capabilities on a smaller footprint, this machine offers full-board printing with no manual intervention.
✔ Ricoh 2220 Printheads (1x4+2)
Configured with 6 industrial Ricoh 2220 printheads (4 for CMYK, 2 for White/Varnish), delivering exceptional speed and photographic quality. This configuration makes it the best UV printer for high-volume, fine-detail uv printing.
✔ 70mm Media Clearance Height
A 70mm print height allows direct printing on thick materials like wooden plaques, glass panels, and industrial tiles. This elevates its uv printing capabilities far beyond flat digital printing equipment.
✔ CMYK + White + Varnish Ink System
Beyond standard CMYK, this UV printer machine supports White ink for under-printing on transparent or dark media and Varnish for tactile, high-end finishes. This allows for premium large poster printing and custom décor.
✔ Instant UV Curing — No Drying Time
UV LED lamps cure the ink instantly as it hits the media. This digital inkjet printer workflow allows immediate stacking, cutting, and shipping, making it far faster than the solvent inks used in a flex printing machine.
✔ Print on Demand — No Plates or Screens
Digital workflow means no plates, no setup waste, no minimum order size. For print on demand custom signage and personalized gifts, this large format printer is the best printer for turning around custom orders fast.
