Competitive Data
Competitive Analysis | |
Strengths | |
| Roland LG Series | Mimaki UCJV300 |
| The Roland LG-640 excels in color vibrancy and gamut, particularly with its orange and red inks, which are valuable for fine art and photo reproduction. It's also known for smooth gradients and high-density white ink, ideal for backlit signage and window graphics. Roland's VersaWorks RIP software is generally considered user-friendly. | The UCJV300-160 provides good print quality. Its multi-layer printing capabilities enable unique applications like backlit displays. |
Weaknesses | |
| Some users have reported that the LG-640's Black (only) is not as deep as on other printers, appearing more like a dark brown, and may not match well with black vinyl. | User reviews indicate that reds might not be as vibrant as on some other printers, and the machine can be slower. Others have noted that fine print and small text (e.g., 6pt) may appear blurry. Some users have also reported issues with ink cartridges, specifically magenta ink, and difficulties with ink canister removal. |
