Roland Introduces New Version of the Industry-Leading SOLJET PRO III XC-540 Printer/Cutter
Thursday 17. January 2008 - Roland DG Corporation, a leading worldwide provider of wide-format inkjet printers and integrated print/cutters, today introduced a powerful new version of its SOLJET PRO III XC-540 print/cutter featuring revolutionary new Roland Intelligent Pass Control technology and additional enhancements that deliver even higher levels of speed, print quality and versatility.
The SOLJET PRO III XC-540 printer/cutter is widely recognized as the industry’s highest performing and most flexible production tool for a wide variety of applications including partial and full vehicle wraps and graphics, signs, POP displays, banners, labels, decals and more. The new XC-540 is Rolands most advanced 54″-wide printer/cutter ever, offering all the advantages of the company’s revolutionary new Roland Intelligent Pass Control technology. This new feature doubles the XC-540’s productivity in Standard print mode on vinyl*1 for finished graphics that reflect the highest levels of print quality. Roland Intelligent Pass Control also enhances XC-540 print quality overall for even smoother gradations and flawless solid colors.
The new XC-540 features award-winning ECO-SOL MAX inks and is available in two models: the XC-540 in 6-color CMYKLcLm and 4-color CCMMYK configurations, and an XC-540W model equipped with 5-color CMYK+W inks featuring new White ECO-SOL MAX ink.
When paired with transparent and opaque media including gold and silver reflective media used for labels and decals, the XC-540W and White ECO-SOL MAX ink offer shops the flexibility to print in three configurations for added versatility: CMYK + White, White only and CMYK. The XC-540W prints highlights, graphics and text on transparent media for a range of unique, profitable applications including decorative window films, packaging comps, signs, labels, decals and point of purchase displays. In addition, White ECO-SOL MAX ink can be printed as an undercoat to increase the opacity and vividness of four-color printing.
Both XC-540 models come with powerful Roland VersaWorks 2.6 RIP software including the Roland Color system for spot color matching, Variable Data Printing, and the Max Impact preset for richer color contrast, outstanding image quality and maximum productivity. The new models also feature upgraded media flanges that securely support media tracking for precision printing through long, unattended production runs.
