Roland DGA Corp. (Irvine, CA) has announced the launch of its new TrueVIS VF2-640, a 64-in. eco-solvent wide-format printer designed to provide improved color gamut expansion and print quality. According to the company, The VF2-640 offers users a whole new level of color control and vibrancy, making it easy to produce color-accurate signs, vehicle graphics, labels, decals, and heat transfer apparel that exceed customer expectations.
The VF2-640 is the first “print-only” model to be offered within Roland DG’s TrueVIS series, and includes features from the TrueVIS VG2 series of printer/cutters. Along with the VF2 comes a new TR2 Green ink which, when combined with vibrant TR2 Orange ink in process colors, allows for a wider gamut.
The VF2-640 also has a new True Rich Color 2 Preset, which maximizes the potential of this machine and its wide-gamut, GREENGUARD Gold certified inks. The True Rich Color 2 Preset enables users to combine vibrant colors with neutral grays, smooth gradations and natural skin tones.
The VF2-640 incorporates four state-of-the-art FlexFire print heads and also has a new, more stable TU4 media take-up with two modes for optimum versatility, a newly designed pinch roller system for simple media loading and improved tracking accuracy, and smart new media clamps that increase ease of use and streamline workflow. The VF2 is equipped with Roland DG Mobile 2 – a new feature that lets users test-print, clean and troubleshoot from their tablet or smartphone.
Finally, this new machine can be paired with Roland DG’s GR-640 large-format cutter, or a Roland DG Pro series cutter, for the high-productivity, precision cutting of decals, labels, heat transfers and other print and cut applications. Print/cut data can be automatically processed by the included VersaWorks 6 RIP software, per the company.
