Welcome, if you go down the Ricoh route you can the Powerdriver which allows you to print from any software.

Flatbed printers to print direct onto phone covers would be things like the UV Printers from Mimaki. More normally with phone covers you do a sublimation print onto paper and then heatpress on a piece of metal which is attached to the phone cover.
