Shanghai Yaselan Advertising Material Co. Ltd “Giant,”
YSL-FB2500UV
The Shanghai Yaselan Advertising Material Co. Ltd introduced their “Giant,” YSL-FB2500UV at the ISA 2004 trade show. It is the only flatbed that I have seen where the entire flatbed portion is enclosed. This machine also accepts roll to roll materials.
But I have not see much of Yaselan recently, at least not a UV-cured ink printer that caught my attention. I did not notice any Yaselan printers at FESPA 2005. Yaselan had a booth at the Dubai Middle East 2006 show but no UV printer was shown.
The Yaselan website is nicely done, but I was not able to find a single UV printer (June 29, 2006). If one exists, it is well hidden.
Redhill used to distribute Yaselan printers in the USA, but they dropped this Chinese brand. Naturally this makes you tend to ask why does Redhill no longer wish to sell Yaselan printers? Probably for the same reason that alert and savvy buyers were unsure about buying an untested printer with no track record.
We can report that the ColorSpan 72UVR and 72UVX work well because we have visited successful print shops that use this brand. When we talk to owners at trade shows they tell us how much they like the ColorSpan UV printer.
We can report that the newest model ColorSpan 9840 is a production workhorse because we visited the ColorSpan factory, inspected where and how they were made, and then got to test the printer ourselves for several hours.
No one can provide comparable recommendations on any Chinese printers because there are no reliable, independent reports on what it is actually like to have one.
If you are considering a Yaselan printer, you ought to be sure also to look at the Infiniti, Flora, Teckwin, Raster Printers machines at entry level, or the ColorSpan or Zund 215 printers.

We are adding new pages and new features every month so it is not always realistic to update old pages from past years. All the old equipment is still available on eBay, so we keep even our old pages. If you wish only the more up to date product reviews, these are in PDFs (not in the web pages, but in PDFs which are linked in the columns at the right of every page). Please realize that we tend to update a page (or a PDF) primarily when it is clear that our readers ask about this brand or model frequently. With over 45 brands of UV printers and over 200 models in the past ten years, it is not realistic to update pages on obsolete brands or unpopular models. If you prefer to speak with Nicholas Hellmuth in person about a printer, you can bring him to your company anywhere in the world as consultant. By later in 2012 more of our web sites will be in 36 different languages with instant translation (and better than old fashioned web page translators of several years ago). So far all the languages are available on www.FLAAR.org and www.3d-scanners-3d-software-reviews.org. Next will be our www.large-format-printers.org. |
