Description
A busy, high-volume print shop needs a printer that can deliver quality output at high speeds.
Meet the new EJ-640 large-format color printer. With dual staggered print heads and a rigid new industrial design, productivity and quality are built in. So are big-time savings. The EJ-640 runs with new Roland DG EJ INK that costs up to 35% less than the competition. The result? High-volume, low-maintenance printing and bold, exciting colors with higher profit margins.
Gain an Edge With the SOLJET® EJ-640 Large Format Digital Printer
More than a job, it’s your reputation coming out of that printer. Which is precisely why the EJ-640 large format color printer is designed to ensure quality results even at high speeds:
- Dual eight-channel Piezo inkjet heads house 180 nozzles per channel
- Offset-positioned print heads move in a large print swath for increased production and follow a mirrored pattern to reduce the chance of banding
- Advanced media feed allows media to feed through the printer accurately at high speeds
- Rigid industrial design ensures quality output
- Patent-pending Roland Intelligent Pass Control system controls dot placement between passes, producing exceptional solid colors and photographic image quality
- Variable dot control achieves smooth gradations and deep image saturation on a broad range of media
Produce Rich, Vibrant, Durable Color for Less
Count On a Quick-Dry Finish
The EJ-640 dries prints quickly – even in high-speed mode – for immediate finishing, installation or collection by the take-up system.
The integrated tri-heater system features:
1 Pre-heater to improve media receptiveness
2 Print heater to accelerate ink fastness and brightness
3 Dryer to accelerate drying and ensure greater productivity and scratch resistance
An included dryer/blower unit evenly dries large prints and enhances image saturation at high speed.
