The Proof is in Your Hand

Until recently, producing realistic package prototypes was a very expensive proposition requiring either using specialized proofing equipment, or stopping the press to run samples. New Roland technologies are simplifying this process, making it easier, less expensive and more efficient than ever to create effective package prototypes that match the final product.

For packaging prototypes, Roland offers a complete line of inkjet printers and printer/cutters, including new UV-LED and metallic eco-solvent models. All come with VersaWorks RIP software, which includes color management tools, variable data printing and other advanced features to automate production and ensure quality results. Roland printer/cutters, offered in both UV-LED and metallic models, take a design entirely through the printing and finishing stages, including die-cutting, all on one device.

Packaging Prototypes

Roland offers two inkjet lines ideal for the production of packaging prototypes: the VersaUV series of 30” LED-UV inkjet printer/cutters and the SOLJET PRO III XC-540MT 54” eco-solvent printer/cutter.

Both product lines come with a white ink option, integrated printing and die cutting capabilities, a maximum print resolution of 1440 dpi, bundled VersaWorks RIP software and Roland Intelligent Pass Control technology for superior image quality in every print mode.  Both are backed by Roland’s two-year warranty.

VersaUV Highlights

The VersaUV is the only wide-format UV inkjet printer line on the market to print six colors (CMYK + White + Clear Coat) and die cut designs. It is engineered specifically for the packaging prototyping market.

Two models are offered: the original LEC-300 supporting hundreds of flexible media and the new, faster LEC-330 that also supports semi-rigid substrates. Users of the VersaUV can choose from a wide range of substrate options including self adhesive PVC, metallic papers, synthetic and natural leathers, coated and art paper, mesh materials, metalized polyesters, cast coated and metalized paper, foils, BOPP, PE, PET film and synthetic paper.

What Our Users Are Saying...

“Our clients were amazed to learn that the prototype we sent was not a full production version. It was that realistic.”

What Our Users Are Saying...

“We applied the clear coat until we had established the proper thickness for the application. Being able to accurately control the thickness of a coating is a very unique feature.”
