Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about starting your UV printing business with Vertiq

Buying

There is no single best wall printer — the right machine depends on what you plan to print, the surfaces you will work on, and your budget. Evaluate printhead type and replacement cost, maximum print height, whether you need floor printing, ink cost per square meter, the software or RIP workflow, and who provides training and parts in the U.S. Vertiq offers three models: Hypermural X ($18,900, single printhead, walls), Hypermural Dual ($22,600, two printheads, walls) and Immersive Dual ($17,600, walls and floors). See our comparison page at /compare for a side-by-side breakdown.

You can buy directly from Vertiq Printers. Our machines are assembled and shipped from our Sherman Oaks, California facility, and freight is quoted per destination in the U.S. and Canada. Request a quote on this site, email office@vertiqprinters.com, or call (833) 758-3784 to speak with our California-based team.

Vertiq wall printers start at $17,600 for the Immersive Dual, $18,900 for the Hypermural X and $22,600 for the Hypermural Dual. What adds to the total: additional ink sets and accessory packages, extra rails or extension rods, freight to your address, and training options. Every quote is itemized so you see the exact breakdown before you commit.

If you want the simplest entry point for wall murals, a single-printhead machine such as the Hypermural X keeps the setup and maintenance footprint smaller. If you want to offer both wall and floor graphics from one machine, the Immersive Dual covers more surface types. Which one fits depends on the work available in your area — we do not make any earnings or profitability claims.

A single-head machine lays down all colours with one printhead. A dual-head machine uses two printheads, which increases the amount of ink laid per pass and allows colour and white to be separated across heads. Dual-head machines cost more and add a second head to clean, maintain and eventually replace. We compare both configurations in plain language at /compare.

Getting started with Vertiq Printers is straightforward. Reach out via the contact form at vertiqprinter.com or call us directly at (833) 758-3784 to speak with a business consultant. We'll walk you through the available models, help you choose the right machine for your goals, and provide a formal quote. Financing options may be available to help manage your initial investment. Once you're ready, we handle everything from order to delivery and setup.

Vertiq Printers machines are assembled and shipped from California, with a U.S.-based sales team in Sherman Oaks, California. Our California-based operations team coordinates shipping and delivery with care, ensuring faster delivery times and simpler logistics compared to importing directly from overseas. Domestic shipping means no import duties, no customs delays, and no currency conversion hassles. This is one of the meaningful advantages of choosing Vertiq Printers over purchasing generic machines directly from overseas manufacturers.

Shipping timelines vary based on your location, the model ordered, and freight availability, so we quote them per order rather than publishing a fixed window. Freight is arranged from our Sherman Oaks, California facility to destinations in the U.S. and Canada, and your delivery schedule is confirmed in writing with your quote. Call (833) 758-3784 to ask about current lead times for your address.

A complete Vertiq Printers purchase includes the machine, initial ink supply, RIP printing software, all necessary cables and accessories, and full setup and training support.

Ongoing ink and supply orders are also available through Vertiq Printers at competitive rates. Visit vertiqprinter.com for a full itemized list of what's included with each model.

Getting started is easy — call Vertiq Printers at (833) 758-3784 or fill out the contact form at vertiqprinter.com and one of our business consultants will get back to you promptly.

There's no obligation to your initial inquiry — just a real conversation with experienced people who want to help you build your printing business. Don't wait: UV printing demand is growing and your market opportunity is ready now.

Business

That depends on local demand, how you price your work, and how much time you put into sales — we do not publish profitability figures or guarantee any result. Some operators book steady commercial work; others find their market takes longer to develop. The cost calculator on our business page uses the numbers you enter as illustrative assumptions only, so treat every output as a model, not a forecast.

A practical sequence: research demand in your area (designers, developers, restaurants, gyms, schools), choose the machine that matches the surfaces you expect to print, complete operator training, build a small portfolio of sample prints, set your pricing per project, and start marketing locally. Expect a ramp-up period while you build references. Our honest breakdown is at /wall-printing-business-opportunity.

At minimum: the printer itself, a laptop with design software and the RIP workflow, CMYK + White UV ink and cleaning supplies, the rail and extension rod for uneven or tall surfaces, a vehicle or case for transport, and basic surface-preparation tools such as cleaning cloths, masking materials and a level. Additional accessories are listed on /accessories.

We do not publish payback periods. Recovery depends entirely on how many jobs you book, what you charge, and your operating costs — all of which vary by market. Use the calculator on our business page with your own realistic numbers, and treat the result as an illustration. Results vary and no outcome is guaranteed.

How quickly you recover your investment depends on your local market, pricing, and how many jobs you book, so we don't publish a payback timeline or ROI figure. A single commercial mural job can bring in thousands of dollars, and per-project pricing varies widely. Use the illustrative example calculator on our business page to model your own scenario, and call (833) 758-3784 to talk through your specific market with our team.

Absolutely both. Many Vertiq Printers customers run UV printing as their primary business, building a full-time operation serving commercial and residential clients. Others start it as a side income stream alongside existing jobs or businesses, gradually scaling as demand grows. The flexibility of the business model is one of its biggest strengths — you control your schedule, pricing, and growth pace. Vertiq Printers supports you at every stage, whether you're going full-time from day one or easing in.

Earnings vary widely based on your market, pricing, and volume, so we don't publish typical revenue or profit figures. Per-project pricing for wall murals and floor printing depends on size, complexity, and local demand. Vertiq Printers provides an illustrative example calculator on our business page so you can model scenarios using your own assumptions, and our team can talk through pricing for your area at (833) 758-3784.

The customer base for UV wall and floor printing is enormous. Interior designers, restaurants, retail chains, hotels, gyms, schools, offices, real estate developers, and homeowners all have demand for custom wall and floor art. Commercial clients often provide larger, repeat contracts that anchor your revenue. Vertiq Printers helps you identify your highest-value customer segments based on your location and market. The demand is there — your Vertiq machine gives you the tool to capture it.

Unlike traditional franchises, buying a UV printer from Vertiq Printers involves no ongoing royalty fees, no territory restrictions, and no franchise agreement — you own your equipment outright. It also tends to face less local competition than many other small business models. Vertiq Printers provides training and support similar to what you'd expect from a franchise, without the fees or bureaucracy.

Machines & Surfaces

Yes. Vertiq machines use UV ink that cures on contact, so they print on painted drywall, plaster, stucco, concrete, brick, wood, tile, ceramic, marble, stone, glass, metal and fabric wall coverings. Very glossy or non-porous surfaces such as glass and polished metal may need cleaning or a bonding primer for best adhesion. Surface-specific guidance for your project is confirmed in writing with your quote.

All three Vertiq models — Hypermural X, Hypermural Dual and Immersive Dual — are assembled at our Sherman Oaks, California facility and leave assembled, so you are not building the machine from parts. On-site positioning, calibration and setup support are covered during onboarding; the specific scope is confirmed in writing with your quote.

Vertiq Printers sells professional-grade UV wall and floor printer machines designed for entrepreneurs and business owners in the USA. Our lineup includes the Hypermural series for dedicated wall printing and the Immersive Dual, a 2-in-1 machine that handles both wall and floor printing. Every machine is engineered for commercial output quality, durability, and ease of use. Whether you're launching a new business or adding a revenue stream, Vertiq Printers has a model that fits your goals. Contact us at (833) 758-3784 or visit vertiqprinter.com to see our full catalog.

Yes — unlike many UV printers that are imported as generic overseas models, Vertiq Printers machines are specifically designed and configured for the US market. This means US-standard electrical specs, US-compatible software interfaces, and support from a California-based team that understands American business environments. Every machine is assembled and shipped from California, with a U.S.-based sales team in Sherman Oaks, California, and parts and service accessible domestically. When you invest with Vertiq Printers, you're getting a machine built to operate reliably in the USA.

Vertiq machines support standard professional design formats including JPEG, PNG, PDF, TIFF, and vector files from Adobe Illustrator and CorelDRAW. The RIP software included with each machine handles color calibration, print sizing, and layout management. You don't need to be a graphic designer — most operators work with customer-supplied artwork or collaborate with freelancers. Vertiq Printers also provides guidance on setting up a simple design workflow during your training. Call (833) 758-3784 or visit vertiqprinter.com for details.

Our Hypermural series supports print heights up to 4 meters (approximately 13 feet) with virtually unlimited width — ideal for full-wall murals and large commercial installations. The Immersive Dual covers both wall and floor surfaces up to similar dimensions. These large-format capabilities allow you to take on high-value jobs that smaller equipment cannot handle. Vertiq Printers machines are built for scale, giving your business the ability to take on larger contracts.
