Meet the Three Editions
Choose Based on What You Plan to Sell
All three editions share the O1 Omni foundation, but they are not interchangeable. Each is a distinct factory configuration built around a different kind of business.
Single UV = Focus
You mainly sell hard goods and want UV Direct plus UV DTF without paying for fluorescent effects or fabric workflows.
- Signs, awards, and plaques
- Personalized gifts
- Promotional products
- UV DTF transfers
Dual-Head UV = Effects
Your advantage is premium UV output, including fluorescent color, flexible white ink, lenticular motion, and specialty surfaces.
- Neon and fluorescent work
- Leather and canvas
- Luxury branding
- Advanced textures and finishes
UV + DT Fabric = Range
You want both hard goods and apparel, with UV Direct, UV DTF, DTG, and DTF in one platform.
- Cotton garments
- Polyester and blends
- Signs and gifts
- Mixed custom-product catalogs

Texture, Finish & the Creative Toolkit
Give Every Print a Dimensional Edge
Raised texture and varnish are shared across all three editions. The Dual-Head UV Edition's second printhead unlocks a further set of specialty effects on top of that shared foundation.
Up to 7 mm Texture
Build raised layers for tactile logos, dimensional artwork, textured details, and premium embossed effects. Shared across all editions.
Varnish Effects
Create matte, gloss, and foil-style finishes using the varnish capabilities supported by the selected edition and workflow. Shared across all editions.
Dual-Head UV Exclusive
These four effects come from the Dual-Head UV Edition's second printhead and are not available on the Single UV or UV + DT Fabric editions.
Fluorescent Color
Add fluorescent red and yellow to produce vivid accents, neon-inspired artwork, attention-grabbing signage, and specialty promotional products.
Flexible White Ink
Support premium UV applications on compatible flexible surfaces where a rigid-only white formulation would not be the ideal choice.
Advanced UV Finishes
Combine color, white, varnish, texture, and specialty effects to make the surface treatment part of the product's value.
Lenticular Motion Effects
Layer print passes to create a motion or depth illusion as the viewing angle changes — an eye-catching option for signage, packaging accents, and collectible-style products.
Shared Omni Platform
Smarter Tools Built Into Every Print
Every O1 Omni edition is built around the same core platform: high-resolution output, intelligent object positioning, app-based controls, an automated maintenance system, and software that keeps the whole process moving.
Remote Controls
Use supported app functions for remote cleaning and machine control as part of the Omni maintenance workflow.
Built for the xTool Ecosystem
Pair the O1 Omni with a compatible xTool laser to move between cutting, engraving, and printing in one connected workflow.
Pixel-Scan™ Vision
Captures the work area at a 1:1 scale to reduce the perspective distortion associated with traditional overhead camera placement.
One-Click AI Generator
Generate print-ready artwork variations inside xTool Creative Space, so a design idea can move to output without leaving the software.
xTool Creative Space Software
Design, preview, and manage every print job from one desktop application built around the Omni's positioning and maintenance tools.
Smart Cycle 2.0 & Shop-Friendly Design
A White-Ink System Built for Real Shops
White ink is essential for vivid output on dark and transparent materials, but it also requires active care. Smart Cycle 2.0 brings circulation, stirring, temperature management, humidity-aware cycling, and cleaning modes into one coordinated system — and the same enclosed design keeps daily operation cleaner and more predictable.
- Automatic white-ink stirring and circulation help keep pigments moving through the ink path.
- Closed cartridges reduce unnecessary air exposure and contamination.
- Ceramic heating supports target ink temperatures of approximately 30°C for UV ink and 25°C for DT ink, helping keep print quality consistent even in cooler shop environments.
- Humidity sensing allows maintenance behavior to respond to the surrounding environment.
- Standard, deep-clean, sleep, and wake-up modes provide different levels of care and help prevent clogs between jobs.
- Vacation Mode is designed to protect the ink path during longer idle periods by using moisturizing liquid, so the machine is ready to print after extended downtime.
- Air filtration helps manage odor and airborne particles during UV curing, supporting a more comfortable indoor working environment.
- Sealed ink handling — closed cartridges and a sealed circulation path reduce direct ink exposure during normal operation and routine maintenance.

Expand the Workflow
One Platform, Multiple Production Paths
Optional accessories extend the Omni beyond flat direct printing. Build the setup around the products you plan to sell instead of forcing every business into the same workflow.
Rotary Printing
Use supported rotary accessories and 3D model preview tools to position artwork on mugs, tumblers, bottles, and other cylindrical objects.
UV DTF Laminating
The laminator is required for UV DTF decal production, allowing printed graphics to be transferred to curved and irregular hard goods.
Roll-Fed Production
Optional feeding accessories support extended UV DTF output and continuous printing on compatible vinyl or canvas media.
Premium Foiling
Add metallic, gold, holographic, and other foil-style effects to compatible premium applications.
Side-by-Side Sales Positioning
The Simplest Way to Explain the Lineup
Single UV = Focus
The right choice for buyers who want professional UV hard-goods production without paying for capabilities they will not use.
Dual-Head UV = Effects
The right choice for buyers who want fluorescent color, flexible white, leather and canvas applications, and premium UV differentiation.
UV + DT Fabric = Range
The right choice for buyers who want to sell both hard goods and apparel and need the broadest set of production workflows.
