Kindly note that DTF Printers/inks will NOT work on hard substrates as DTF printers and inks are mostly compatible with fabric and similar materials. We can still confirm if you can please send us a few pics and info for the exact substrates you are looking to print on. You can email us using the link here below -

For what you materials you need to print on, UV inks and printers are best options to look into.
You can use UV inks on High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE) plastic and on ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene) material as well!
However, it's important to note that HDPE has a low surface energy, which means it requires a pre-treatment to ensure proper adhesion of the UV ink. Once the pre-treatment is done, UV inks can be applied effectively, producing vibrant and durable prints. ABS is a popular choice for UV printing because it has a smooth surface that allows for even ink distribution and adhesion. Just like with HDPE, it's important to properly prepare the ABS surface by cleaning it and applying a primer to ensure the best results.
