Roland has introduced a new optional mesh printing unit for the 104” (2641 mm) AdvancedJET AJ-1000, an industrial grand-format solvent printer and, at 968 sqft./hr. (90 sqm./hr.), the company’s fastest inkjet to date.

Engineered for high-volume production of banners, billboards, signage and other durable graphics, the AJ-1000 now supports unlined mesh media, ideal for outdoor graphics that may be exposed to excessive wind or any application calling for the unique sheer look of mesh.

The MU-1000 mesh printing unit attaches and detaches easily from the AJ-1000 and features a built-in drainage system for easy removal of excess ink. Support for unlined media makes it highly economical to produce mesh graphics with the new unit.
