I was just wondering where I might be able to find a UV ink cart for a
reasonable price and what printer might produce it. Also, I was
wondering what I should do in order to print a UV icon that would
appear under a regular holo -- such as a Mass DL. They have regular
holos and then the UV holo underneath. What process should I use to
produce this effect? As always, any help is much appreciated...

Wow...that sounds awesome... And a great way to make some cash...
Sadly, $475 is WAY outta my price range and I also don't have a c86.
Also... I haven't heard of you. Anyone know this guy's credibility?

To print uv, you can go about 2 ways. Using sirchie powders and using
the silk screening method (but this is very hard, especially to get a
decent looking brown color for the CA uv) , or get yourself a HP
printer that will work with the hacked inkjet carts that perf sells on
his website: www.practicingperfection.7p.com He is the best at what
he does, and a lot cheaper than the $475 bullshit that drknockboot is
trying to pull for a epson hacked carts. I have never heard of anyone
making UV carts for a epson, only for canon's and HP. Hope this helps
you

hes jsut reselling what you can find on the internet from actual
companys for about a hundred dollar markup...They are somewhat oem
carts but have that uv twist youre looking for.....you would need a
dedicated printer for each of the uv carts because the non benefit of
epson printers is the use the same print head over and over, unlike hp
which uses a drifferent print head each time you reload the cart....the
primary reason pref used hp carts
