As V-BOND Ink has become a desired UV ink, specially formulated to provide a safer, less toxic alternative to standard UV Inks, the demand to include the V-BOND ink for use of printers outside the LEF/LEF2 models has been incredibly high.

Along with its child-safe properties, V-BOND Ink is an LED curable ink, and is specially formulated for high performance, trouble-free printing with excellent color fidelity and ink-build. V-BOND Inks offer expanded color gamut, long-term outdoor durability, superior adhesion, and low maintenance requirements.

Roland DGA’s new Graphic Transfer System (GTS) makes it quick and easy to apply stunning pre-printed UV ink graphics to irregularly shaped objects that are difficult or impossible to print on directly, or not suitable for decals.

GTS allows for the transfer of complex graphics on a variety of surface structures that a standard printing process won’t allow:

-Extreme depth
-Uneven surface
-Round corners
-Improved adhesion
-Easy storage and transport
-Retail applications
-Impossible LEF2 positioning/size

    Competitive Analysis

    Strengths
    Roland LG SeriesMimaki 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.
