  • What is a Vertical Wall Printer?
    A vertical wall printer is a cutting-edge technology that allows direct printing of images and designs onto walls with precision and ease. Unlike traditional paint or wallpaper, this innovative solution offers a faster, more customizable, and highly detailed alternative for interior decorators, businesses, and homeowners. Using advanced software and high-quality UV-curable inks, vertical wall printers can create vibrant, intricate designs on virtually any wall surface, turning ordinary spaces into stunning works of art. Whether for residential, commercial, or artistic applications, this technology redefines wall décor with efficiency, durability, and limitless creativity.
  • How Does the Vertical Wall Printer Work?
    A vertical wall printer operates using a piezoelectric inkjet printhead, which sprays UV-curable ink directly onto the wall with precision. As the ink is applied, a UV curing lamp instantly dries and hardens it, ensuring a vibrant, durable finish in just seconds. The printing process involves horizontal wheels or tracks that move the printer side to side, while the printhead moves up and down, allowing it to seamlessly create large-format images on the wall. This advanced technology enables high-quality, detailed prints on a variety of surfaces with speed and accuracy.
  • What’s Included with the Vertical Wall Printer?

  • How Does the Vertical Wall Printer Create 3D Images on the Wall?
    While the vertical wall printer uses UV-curable ink designed primarily for two-dimensional printing, it can create 3D-like effects through image design techniques. By incorporating shading, framing, and perspective adjustments, printed images can appear visually three-dimensional on the wall. Additionally, since UV-curable ink does not absorb into the surface, layering multiple passes of white ink in specific areas can create a raised texture. This process allows for the creation of tactile 3D or 2.5D effects, adding depth and dimension to the print.
  • What Type of Ink Does the Wall Printer Use?
    The VPJet series printers use UV-curable inks from the renowned U.S. brand Nazdar. These high-quality inks have been tested extensively in real-world applications and are known for their exceptional performance, durability, and ease of use. One key advantage of Nazdar UV inks is their low risk of nozzle clogging, ensuring smooth operation and reduced maintenance. In the inkjet printing industry, high-quality inks are essential for protecting printheads, and Nazdar inks provide optimal reliability and longevity for your printing system.
  • What Types of Images Can the Wall Printer Use?
    The VPJet wall printer utilizes professional RIP software, supporting multiple image formats, including JPEG, PNG, TIFF, and PDF. For the best printing results, we recommend using high-resolution images with a resolution of 200 to 300 DPI to ensure sharp, vibrant, and detailed prints. High-quality images can be sourced from professional digital cameras or created and optimized using graphic design software like Photoshop for maximum clarity and color accuracy.
  • What is the Lifespan of a Vertical Wall Printer?
    At DXonJet, our philosophy is simple: We build machines that print, not machines that constantly need spare parts. The VPJet series vertical printers are engineered with high-quality, durable components, allowing for long-term use with minimal maintenance. Unlike lower-quality machines that frequently require part replacements, DXonJet printers are built for reliability and sustained performance. The only regularly replaced consumables include ink, print heads, ink tubes, and ink cartridges, ensuring continued high-quality printing without frequent hardware failures.
  • What Consumables Does the Vertical Wall Printer Require?
    The vertical inkjet wall printer requires several consumable components to maintain optimal performance. These include: ✔ UV-Curable Ink – Essential for high-quality, durable prints ✔ Print Heads – Responsible for precise ink application ✔ Dampers – Help regulate ink flow and prevent clogging ✔ Ink Tubes – Transport ink from the tanks to the print heads ✔ Ink Tanks – Store the ink supply for continuous printing ✔ Pump Caps – Assist in the cleaning and maintenance process Regular replacement of these consumables ensures consistent print quality and long-term machine performance.
  • How to Maintain a Vertical Wall Printer
    Maintaining a vertical inkjet wall printer is simple and requires regular care of the print head and UV lamp surface to ensure optimal performance and longevity. Key Maintenance Steps: ✔ UV Lamp Care: Regularly wipe off dust and ink residue from the UV lamp surface to maintain its maximum curing power and ensure consistent print quality. ✔ Print Head Maintenance: The key to keeping the print head in good condition is to prevent ink from drying inside. If the ink remains stagnant for too long, it can clog the nozzles. To avoid this, regularly flush out old ink and replace it with fresh ink to maintain proper ink flow and prevent blockages. ✔ Software-Assisted Maintenance: These tasks can be performed easily through the printer's software, and the entire process takes less than a minute. What NOT to Do: 🚫 Avoid unnecessary use of cleaning and moisturizing fluids. Cleaning fluid should only be used for clogged nozzles, not for routine maintenance. Moisturizing fluid is only recommended for brand-new, unused print heads. Best Cleaning Solution? High-quality ink. Using high-grade ink naturally keeps the print head clean and functioning properly. By following these simple maintenance steps, your DXonJet vertical wall printer will continue to deliver high-quality prints with minimal downtime.
  • What Print Sizes Can the VPJet Wall Printer Achieve?
    The VPJet series vertical printer is designed for large-format, high-resolution printing with flexible height options: Standard Printing Height: Prints images up to 196cm (6'5") tall. Extended Printing Height: With a 100cm vertical extension pole, the printer can reach a maximum height of 296cm (9'8") for taller prints.
