High Speed Production Printing

Designed to address a wide gamut of applications, banners, signs, point of purchase displays, event graphics, vehicle graphics and more, the six-color (CMYK+LcLm) SOLJET PRO III XJ-640 achieves maximum print speeds of up to of 41.75 sq m/hr.

The high-speed network interface card delivers rapid data transfer optimizing the demands of high resolution output.

The optional DU-640 dryer/blower unit further expedites the production process by accelerating the drying time of unattended high speed production printing.

Outstanding Print Quality

XJ series produces photorealistic graphics that look great up close and at a distance. XJ printers precisely control droplet placement in both the print head travel and paper feed directions to provide up to 1440x1440 dpi resolution.

Equipped with Piezo print heads, the XJ design features a digital servo motor to control the media for precision imaging. Variable droplet technology uses micro-precise ink droplets of three different sizes depending on the type of output. This state-of-the-art technology delivers truly breathtaking output with beautifully smooth, dot-free tones even at high print speeds on a wide range of media from vinyl and banner to paper and mesh.

System enhancements include enhanced grit accuracy as well as new media flanges, pinch rollers and grit rollers for flawless media feeding and tracking. Extended built-in media edge clamps prevent media curling and ragged edges.

To further ensure the highest print quality, VersaWorks offers precision spot colour matching through the Roland Colour System. VersaWorks also supports industry standard ICC profiles, comes with several Roland media profiles, and is compatible with profiles created through standard profiling packages. An updated list of Roland profiles can be accessed through the Roland@NETservice.

Sign Essentials have profiles to suit all our digital print media. If you would like assistance choosing a media or suitable profile contact us.

Precision Firing Pattern

Roland’s unique precision firing pattern has been optimized for the XJ’s piezo print heads to achieve unparalleled image quality in every print mode. As a result, the XJ produces dense, rich colors and high-contrast images with no traces of banding at the highest print speeds.

Advanced Eco-SOL MAX Ink

ECO-SOL MAX eco-solvent ink delivers high color density and a wide gamut for exceptional images print after print. ECO-SOL MAX performs on a wide range of both coated and uncoated media, including backlit film, for increased versatility. Fast-drying and scratch-resistant, ECO-SOL MAX produces prints that dry quickly for easy handling throughout the production and finishing processes. Packaged in easy, no-mess 220 and 440 ml cartridges, ECO-SOL MAX is virtually odorless for maximum convenience and comfort.

Automated Maintenance System

The XJ features an automated maintenance system that saves valuable ink and time, resulting in lower overall running costs. The XJ’s in-line print head configuration eliminates the need for lengthy calibration procedures as well.

Heavy Duty Take-Up System

The XJ includes an automated media feed and take-up system to facilitate precision unattended printing. This pre-assembled unit includes convenient front-mounted feed and take-up rollers and an advanced tension-controlled take-up system for optimum media feed and tracking. The system handles rolls weighing up to 40kg.

VersaWorks RIP Software

VersaWorks is powerful RIP software developed by Roland engineers for the company’s inkjet technology. Built upon the genuine Adobe ® PostScript ® CPSI ™ RIP engine, VersaWorks features an efficient graphical user interface that allows users to maximize their Roland inkjet without a lengthy learning curve.

Integrated Tri-Heater System

The XJ’s integrated tri-heater system dries prints quickly even in high-speed modes for immediate finishing, installation or collection by the take-up system. The system features three components: a pre-heater that improves media receptiveness, a print heater to accelerate ink fastness and brightness, and a dryer to accelerate the drying process and improve productivity, workability and scratch resistance. All can be controlled from either the printer panel or Roland VersaWorks.

Optional Dryer/Blower Unit

An optional dryer/blower unit is offered for the XJ series. This upgrade ensures the ability to print highly saturated images at full speed while using the take-up rollers – with absolutely no image transfer.

Reliability

As with all Roland inkjet printers, the XJ is a virtually bulletproof production machine. With regular maintenance, it will provide years of trouble-free service. But, unlike most inkjets that require daily maintenance, the XJ requires servicing significantly less often. The XJ ink system features a motor-driven elevator that automatically adjusts to print head height. It has wipers that clean two heads at a time and flush the ink on each pass.
