Facebook← Back to What printer is needed for resin stickers?
If you want to create resin (domed) stickers with bright colours and strong durability, choosing the right printer plays a key role. Eco-solvent and solvent printers are widely recommended for producing printed designs that work well with resin doming processes.
What Makes Eco-solvent and Solvent Printers Different?
Eco-solvent and solvent printers use special inks that penetrate and bind effectively to vinyl, polyester, and other typical sticker materials. Their prints resist fading, moisture, and abrasion, making them ideal for high-quality resin sticker applications. Unlike standard desktop inkjets, these printers output images that stay crisp beneath a domed resin coating and won’t distort or blur over time.
Buying and Use Guidance
- Material compatibility: Verify your chosen film or vinyl works with eco-solvent/solvent inks and is suitable for resin doming.
- Printer setup: Maintain your printer and use manufacturers’ recommended inksets for best results and long-term durability.
- Print quality: Look for printers offering high resolution and precise colour control for vibrant sticker designs. Professional models often provide the most consistent output for resin doming.
If you’re planning to finish your stickers with “Be Flex” doming resin, ensure your prints are fully cured before applying the resin for optimal adhesion and appearance.
When Eco-solvent/Solvent Printers Matter Most
Choosing this printer technology is important if your stickers will be exposed to sunlight, moisture, or abrasion, or if you want a truly professional, glossy result. DIY or home inkjets typically aren’t sufficient for resin doming as their inks can bleed or deteriorate under resin.
