Roland DG announces new VW-S1 Print Color Matching Tool

Roland DG has announced the worldwide launch of its innovative VW-S1 densitometer, a new tool designed to make colour matching on one Roland printer and between Roland printers easier and more affordable. The VW-S1 is an easy-to-use USB device that works with the Printer Color Matching function of Roland’s powerful VersaWorks 6.8 RIP. This ensures consistency of colour output from one printer over time or between compatible printers, for instance two or more same-model Roland devices with the same ink type, configuration and print settings.

Using the VW-S1, PSPs can produce volume work from one client with multiple printers, or print a large combined graphic with two printers, or produce the same quality output from one printer over a long period of time all with consistent colour. This can save time, reduce waste and improve print quality across repeat orders – all resulting in happy customers. The device is compatible with TrueVIS, VersaCAMM, VersaSTUDIO and VersaUV printers and printer/cutters from Roland DG. These systems are relied upon around the world by businesses in sectors including sign and display, print personalisation, labels and packaging, and textiles and apparel to create stunning work in vibrant colours.
