Roland DGA Corp. (Irvine, CA) is introducing its 64-in.-wide, SOLJET EJ-640 eco-solvent inkjet printer that, the company says, will optimize productivity and quality while minimizing operating costs. The printers features dual, staggered printheads, an integrated, tri-heater system; an industrial-drive system; and high-capacity, one-liter ink cartridges that apply Roland’s cost-effective EJ inks. The printers are available in two configurations: a mirrored, CMYK ink configuration (that can achieve print speeds of up to 1,098 sq. ft./hr.) or a seven-color, broad-gamut ink configuration that comprises CMYKLcLmLk ink colors. Either printer package includes Roland VersaWorks® Dual RIP software that processes both PDF and PostScript files. Other features include a newly developed feed adjuster, a reinforced rail-and-frame structure, and a heater and blower that prevent ink from bleeding during take-up. The printers also allow unattended operation and will send job information to your smart phone, tablet or computer, via Roland OnSupport.
Roland DGA is also announcing its ECO-UV ink for use with its VersaUV UV-LED inkjet printers that enhances colors (CMYK, white, clear) on various media — paper, film, leather and such rigid materials as polyester, ABS and acrylic — for decorating labels, decals, packaging materials and such consumer products as smart-phone cases.
