A desktop UV printer can be used for much more than reproducing flat images.
For a growing customization business, the real opportunity is being able to combine different materials, printing processes, textures, and product formats.
This is where the LONGER ePrint takes a particularly broad approach.
While Morpho focuses primarily on advanced UV printing, ePrint combines UV, DTF, DTG, and UV DTF with dual Epson F1080 printheads, 12 ink channels, 300+ materials, and up to 15 mm 3D color relief.
1. Four Printing Technologies in One Platform
The ePrint is designed as a 4-in-1 printing machine:
- UV printing
- DTF
- DTG
- UV DTF
That creates different paths from one design to a finished product.
For example:
Hard products:
Phone cases, acrylic, wood, metal, glass and promotional products.
Apparel:
DTF and DTG workflows can support T-shirts and other garments.
Transfer applications:
UV DTF can be used for products that are difficult to print directly.
This gives entrepreneurs more options when developing a product catalog.
2. 15 mm 3D Relief Creates More Distinctive Products
One of ePrint’s notable capabilities is up to 15 mm colorful 3D relief.
More than 20 printing effects are available, including embossing, high-relief printing, embroidery effects, fluorescent effects, and lenticular effects.
A small business could use these capabilities for:
- Raised logos
- Textured wall art
- Decorative signs
- Faux embroidery
- Premium gifts
- Dimensional lettering
Morpho’s F1080 configuration supports up to 5 mm, while its i3200 configuration advertises up to 60 mm embossment.
Therefore, users specifically focused on extremely deep embossing should consider the i3200 configuration.
But for businesses wanting a combination of 3D effects and multiple printing processes, ePrint offers a broader workflow.
3. Dual Printheads Help Turn Creative Ideas Into Orders
Creative flexibility becomes more useful when ideas become products that customers actually order.
ePrint uses dual Epson F1080 printheads with 12 ink channels.
According to LONGER, its dual-head configuration can achieve up to 2× faster 2D printing and up to 6× faster 3D texture printing compared with its single-head configuration.
That can help businesses move from making one prototype to producing a batch.
4. 300+ Materials Expand the Creative Playground
ePrint supports more than 300 materials.
These include:
- Wood
- Acrylic
- Metal
- Plastic
- Fabric
- Glass
- Ceramic
- Stone
- Leather
- Film
With up to 10 mm height compensation, the machine can also accommodate differences in product surface height.
This gives creators more freedom to experiment with physical products rather than being restricted to a single flat substrate.
5. Open Ink Supports Experimentation
Creative businesses sometimes need to test different workflows.
The ePrint’s open ink system allows experienced users to work with compatible third-party inks.
This provides additional flexibility when testing different production requirements.
Combined with its multiple printing technologies, the open system makes ePrint more adaptable to businesses that are still developing their production workflow.
6. A Practical Example: Building a Personalized Gift Line
Imagine an entrepreneur launching a personalized gift business.
They could begin with:
- UV-printed phone cases
- Acrylic signs
- Wooden gifts
Then add:
- Raised 3D designs
- Faux embroidery effects
- UV DTF decals
- Personalized apparel
As orders increase, the dual-head system can support higher production efficiency.
This illustrates the broader purpose of ePrint: not simply printing more, but giving a business more ways to develop products.
Conclusion
Morpho emphasizes advanced UV printing, sensing, enclosure, and high-resolution output.
LONGER ePrint combines creative flexibility with production flexibility.
Its dual F1080 printheads, 12 ink channels, four printing technologies, 300+ materials, 15 mm 3D relief, 10 mm height compensation, and open ink system provide a broad platform for product development.
For entrepreneurs who want to experiment across materials, processes, textures, and product categories, ePrint provides more than a conventional desktop UV workflow.
