Next booming printng technology---UV printing

It is evident that the "next big thing" in the personalization world is UV printing, but what makes it so great? What can you do with a UV inkjet printer that you can't do with sublimation or some other color printing method? And finally, is the equipment worth the price?
Image result for uv printOver the last few years there has been a major boom in UV LED Printing. This style of printer is used mainly for printing on things like promotional products and other flat surface objects. UV has a wide range of substrates that can be printed on like glass, metal, wood, plastics, ceramics and many more.
I've been selling UV printer for a couple of years now and I think I have discovered a fair share of the good and bad points of the process.
First, the bad points: Two come immediately to mind. One is that these printers don't print on everything. Although some salespeople may make it sound that way, the truth is, there are countless products just begging for UV images but the inks won’t adhere properly. It does print on most things, especially if you use an adhesion promoter. This is usually a liquid that can be applied with a paper towel prior to printing. A couple of printers on the market actually allow you to install the promotor like an ink allowing you to "print" the liquid prior to printing the ink. Although this may sound like a good idea, I question the wisdom since this would require relinquishing one or two nozzles for this purpose. I would much prefer having those nozzles available for white or clear inks.

UV LED printers have a very unique way that they print and cure the ink. UV ink is cured when it comes in contact with UV light. Inside the printer on the side of the print head is a high powered UV lamp. The moment the ink hits the surface it is exposed to high levels of UV light causing the ink to cure instantly. So when the printer is done printing it has a completely cured image on the area printed.
