Roland introduces the TrueVis VG2 series

Roland DG has launched the TrueVis VG2 series 64in and 54in wide-format eco-solvent inkjet printer/cutters that will de demonstrated at Sign and Digital UK 2019 next month.

The VG2 printers - which incorporate Roland DG FlexFire printheads - have a new colour management preset, True Rich Color, and use a new generation of eco-solvent TR2 ink. In addition to the previous seven colours - CMYKLcLmLk - and white, the TR2 inks now include orange too. TrueVis VG2 and TR2 ink is certified by the 3M MCS. The VG2 with TR2 ink also supports Avery’s ICS performance guarantee and is certified Greenguard Gold. Also new are middle pinch rollers that raise automatically prior to starting the cutting process, allowing media to be cut without the rollers travelling over the printed area. New crop mark options for cutting laminated prints or long production runs of print and cut graphics used in combination with new optimised side pinch roller pressure functionality aid cutting performance. A new optional take-up unit supports two modes according to the type of media chosen. The included VersaWorks 6 Rip software supports the latest Harlequin Rip dual core engine with PDF 2.0 and native 64-bit processing.
