Pro-Level Wide-Format Inkjet Offers Unparalleled Image Quality and Superior Productivity
IRVINE | California – January 2025 – Roland DGA Corporation, a leading provider of wide-format inkjet printers and printer/cutters, has announced the addition of the next-generation XP-640 – a Pro-level 64-inch eco-solvent inkjet printer that combines unmatched image quality and outstanding productivity – to Roland DG’s award-winning
TrueVIS series.
“Our fastest TrueVIS printer to date, the XP-640 is uniquely engineered to maximize production capability while
maintaining the amazing color and print quality that has become the hallmark of the TrueVIS product family,” said
Roland DGA’s Product Manager of Digital Print, Daniel Valade. “This next-generation inkjet incorporates several
exciting innovations, including new printheads, upgraded control technology, and new inks, to provide users with
the best of both worlds – outstanding speed and stunning output.”
The XP-640’s newly designed dual staggered printheads eject finer ink droplets at higher densities to produce
incredibly vibrant, detailed graphics with fewer passes. New high-speed data control functionality further enhances
the performance of the printheads, enabling the XP-640 to print at speeds of up to 818 square feet per hour while
achieving beautiful, high-definition image quality.
New TH eco-solvent inks, specially formulated to bring out the best in the XP-640, deliver an expanded gamut that
opens up a new world of creative opportunities for print professionals. In addition to CMYK, Orange and Green, the
TH ink set includes a new Red ink option, allowing users to achieve the highest accuracy with red and orange
expression – the most crucial and frequently used colors in sign graphics. The wider color gamut also allows for
incredibly precise color matching, making it simple to accurately reproduce brand and corporate colors. TH inks are
also extremely cost-effective, with an ink price per milliliter that’s lower than that of conventional ink. Improved
profiling reduces ink usage as well, allowing for maximum high-volume production profitability.
True Rich Color, a print setting that optimizes the device’s ability to create realistic graphics that combine vivid
colors with neutral grays, smooth gradations, and natural skin tones, has evolved further with the XP-640. Based on
the True Rich Color Standard setting, the user can now quickly select the ideal color variation, including vivid color,
deeper color, or softer color, depending on the setting and the client’s requirements.
The XP-640 is packed with features for efficient high-quality output, including an easy-to-use 7-inch color LCD
touch panel, a media setup function that automatically performs accurate media gap and compensation adjustment, a media take-up that reduces media skewing for stable production, and a perforated sheet cutter for quick and efficient post-processing work.
Like all Roland DG devices, the XP-640 is built to provide superior performance over the long haul, with minimal
maintenance required. To minimize downtime, standard maintenance such as replacing caps, wipers, wiper cleaners,
and other parts around the printheads has been made easier than ever – users can perform these operations
themselves without having to call a service engineer. XP-640 users also have access to Roland DG Connect, a
cloud-based app that helps optimize output operations by providing a full array of functions, including, operational
visibility, simple profit calculation, downloading of profiles, and more.
The XP-640 also comes bundled with powerful, intuitive VersaWorks ® 6 RIP software, which offers a host of
advanced features that enable users to manage print output effortlessly. VersaWorks 6 boasts HARLEQUIN RIP
dual-core operation for faster handling of complex files, simple-to-use drag-and-drop functionality, new tools for
easier and more precise color matching, built-in Roland DG and PANTONE ® libraries, nesting for up to 86 jobs, a
predictive ink calculator, and much more.
“While sign and graphic production has diversified with the introduction of UV and latex inks, customer demand
for eco-solvent ink and the exceptional vibrancy and outdoor durability it provides remains incredibly strong,”
noted Valade. “The new XP-640 takes eco-solvent printing to its highest level yet, offering print quality,
productivity, cost efficiency, and ease of use that the competition just can’t match. We’re confident that the
impressive capabilities of this advanced machine will enable users to increase efficiency, exceed the expectations of
their customers, and significantly grow their businesses.”
