Audley 8030-3 13-Inch UV DTF Printer – 3× Epson XP600 | CMYK + Lc + Lm + White + Varnish

Professional 13-inch UV DTF printing with integrated laminating for high-quality, peel-and-apply transfers.

The Audley 8030-3 UV DTF Printer is a professional 13-inch (33 cm) roll-to-roll UV DTF printing system designed to produce vibrant, durable UV DTF transfers for a wide range of hard and specialty surfaces.

Equipped with three Epson XP600 printheads, the 8030-3 uses an expanded 8-channel UV ink configuration — CMYK + Light Cyan + Light Magenta + White + Varnish (CMYK + Lc + Lm + W + V) — to produce smooth gradients, vibrant colors, opaque white layers, and glossy specialty effects.

The integrated UV DTF laminating system combines the printed transfer film with the second film roll, creating ready-to-apply transfers that can be peeled and applied to compatible surfaces.

With a working width of up to 13 inches (33 cm), the Audley 8030-3 is built for businesses producing customized drinkware, promotional products, packaging, signage, gifts, and other personalized hard-surface applications.

Print. Laminate. Peel. Apply.

The Audley 8030-3 combines UV DTF printing and laminating into a streamlined production workflow.

Step 1 – Print

The three Epson XP600 printheads apply UV-curable ink to the printable film using the expanded 8-channel color configuration.

Step 2 – Cure

The UV ink is cured during the printing process, allowing the printed design to move directly into the laminating workflow.

Step 3 – Laminate

The integrated laminating station applies the second film to the printed transfer. Controlled film tension helps maintain consistent film tracking throughout the process.

Step 4 – Peel & Apply

The finished UV DTF transfer can be peeled from the appropriate carrier film and applied to compatible hard surfaces.

This makes UV DTF technology particularly useful for customized products that may be difficult or impractical to print directly.

Expanded 8-Channel UV Color System

The Audley 8030-3 features three Epson XP600 printheads and an expanded ink configuration:

CMYK + Lc + Lm + White + Varnish

The addition of Light Cyan (Lc) and Light Magenta (Lm) helps produce smoother color transitions and gradients, while white ink provides opacity on darker and transparent substrates.

The dedicated varnish channel can be used to create glossy and specialty finishing effects on selected areas of a design.

Color Configuration

UV DTF Transfers for Hard-Surface Customization

UV DTF printing allows you to create peel-and-apply transfers for compatible hard and specialty surfaces.

Common applications include:

• Tumblers
• Bottles
• Glassware
• Metal products
• Ceramic items
• Acrylic products
• Plastic products
• Phone cases
• Promotional products
• Personalized gifts
• Packaging
• Signs and plaques
• Awards
• Branded merchandise

UV DTF transfers can be especially useful for products with curved, irregular, or difficult-to-print surfaces.

No heat press is required for applying the finished UV DTF transfer. The transfer is applied using pressure according to the recommended application procedure.

Important: Surface compatibility varies. Always test the specific substrate before beginning production, particularly with textured, coated, oily, flexible, or low-surface-energy materials.

Integrated UV DTF Laminating System

The built-in laminating station eliminates the need for a separate laminator for the standard production workflow.

The second film is applied to the printed transfer with controlled film tension to help maintain consistent alignment and film tracking.

This integrated design helps streamline production from printing to laminating to finished UV DTF transfer.

High-Resolution UV DTF Printing

The 8030-3 supports multiple print resolutions, including:

• 720 × 1200 DPI
• 720 × 1800 DPI
• 720 × 2400 DPI

The available resolution settings allow operators to balance print quality, detail, and production requirements based on the specific job.

UV LED Curing

UV-curable ink is cured during the printing process using UV light.

This enables the printed transfer to proceed through the UV DTF workflow without requiring conventional air-drying time.

Proper curing and adhesion depend on ink settings, film, substrate, environmental conditions, and the specific production workflow.

Production-Focused Roll-to-Roll Design

With a working width of up to 13 inches (33 cm), the 8030-3 provides a practical production platform for businesses producing UV DTF transfers in different sizes.

The roll-to-roll configuration helps simplify continuous transfer production while the integrated laminator completes the transfer workflow within the same machine.

PhotoPrint RIP Software Included

The Audley 8030-3 includes PhotoPrint RIP software, providing the software workflow needed to prepare and send artwork to the printer.

RIP software helps manage print settings, color processing, white-ink layers, varnish effects, and other production parameters.
