Unsurpassed Printing and Cutting Accuracy
A host of advancements improve print and cut accuracy for true unattended production with the VG2.
• New crop mark options for cutting laminated prints or long production runs of print and cut graphics provide perfect cutting performance when used in combination with the new optimised side pinch roller pressure functionality.
• Newly designed middle pinch rollers raise automatically prior to starting the cutting process, allowing the media to be cut without the rollers travelling over the printed area.
• Print & Cut or Cut & Print - to increase media compatibility, the VG2 and VersaWorks 6 offer a new cut and print function to enable delicate media and intricate designs to be cut before ink is applied.
• A new take-up unit supports two modes according to the type of media chosen, securing take-up stability for smooth post processes.


Powerful Productivity
Plus, bundled VersaWorks 6 RIP software includes the latest Harlequin® RIP dual core engine with PDF 2.0 and native 64-bit processing and new, easy-to-use capabilities that make it Roland’s most powerful RIP software ever.
*Tests performed by Avery Dennison on MPI Range digital media. When using this media, prints produced on VG2 with TR2 ink can be laminated after a 6-hour period when rolls or images are properly ventilated and loosely wound.
**3M™ MCS™ and Avery Dennison™ ICS™ Warranty currently applies to CMYKLkLcLm. White and Orange to follow. Users of 8c configuration can select 7c for full conformity.
***The lifespan for outdoor use is based on accelerated weather testing. Results may vary depending on the location, media and application. Lamination may be required for some applications.

A New Generation of TrueVIS Eco-Solvent InkIn addition to seven colours (CMYKLcLmLk) plus White, new TR2 ink includes Orange, increasing breadth of colour gamut and adding real impact and high visibility to graphics. For even richer prints, a new Multiprocess Color Function has been developed so that Orange ink can be used in all file types as a process colour or spot if specific colour matching is required. Plus, it’s now possible to print then laminate graphics in as little as 6 hours* for same-day installation. |
True Rich Color Invented HereIn order to take full advantage of the VG2’s superior colour reproduction capability and the wide colour gamut provided by new TR2 ink, we developed a new colour management preset, True Rich Color. Now vibrant colour can be combined with neutral grays, smooth gradations and natural skin tones to create stunning graphics. |

* 2 The length of printing or cutting is subject to the limitations of the program.
*3 500 gf is the maximum instantaneous blade force.The blade force must be adjusted according to details such as the media thickness.
*4 Media type: Media specified by Roland DG Corporation. Temperature: 25°C (77°F), humidity: 50%RH. Roll media must be loaded correctly. Applicable when all pinch rollers that can be used with the media width are used. Side margins: 25 mm (1.0 in.) or more for both the left and right margins. Excluding expansion/contraction of the media. Not assured when the print heater or dryer is used. Assumes all correction and adjustment functions of the machine have been used properly.
*5 Print travel: 1 m (39.4 in.)
*6 [PREFEED] menu item must be set to "ENABLE." Range for assured repetition accuracy. For media with a width exceeding 610 mm (24 in.): Length: 4000 mm (157.5 in.). For media with a width of 610 mm (24.0 in.) or less: Length: 8000 mm (315 in.)
*7 Provided that the media feed length is 3000 mm (118.1 in.) or less. Excludes the effects of slanted movement and of expansion and contraction of the media.
*8 Data size: 1625 mm model: 1000 mm (39.4 in.) in the media-feed direction, 1600 mm (63 in.) in the carriage-movement direction. 1371 mm model: 1000 mm (39.4 in.) in the media-feed direction, 1346 mm (53.0 in.) in the carriage-movement direction. No lamination. Automatic detection of crop marks at 4 points when media is reloaded. During cutting, [PREFEED] menu item must be set to "ENABLE." Excluding possible shift caused by expansion/contraction of the media and/or by reloading the media.
*9 Warm-up is required after power up. This may require 5 to 20 minutes, depending on the operating environment.Depending on the ambient temperature and media width, the preset temperature may fail to be reached.
Due to the nature of white ink, the pigment in this ink will settle in the cartridge and ink flow system, requiring you to shake the cartridge before each use. Outdoor durability is three years for CMYKLcLmLkOr inks, and one year for White ink, depending on the location, media and application. Lamination may be required for certain applications.
