First UV Print | Start to Finish Beginner Tutorial (Epson V1070)

Desktop UV printing took off in 2025 with the launch of the Epson UV 1070 and the even more compact and affordable EufyMake E1 UV printer. 

The Eufymake was the most successful kickstarter ever if that tells you anything! You've probably heard of or used UV DTF transfers (they're like stickers), but flatbed UV printers like the Epson V1070 and Eufymake can also print directly to object.  

I have a Eufymake on the way, but the Epson V1070 is already set up in my office so in this tutorial I'll walk you through my first UV print on the Epson V1070 using an inexpensive cutting board. (The size and passthrough of the Eufymake would allow you to print on a cutting board as well.)

I'll be honest - it's not perfect, but I find that I learn the most going through the process and learning from the mistakes and not being afraid to make them.
