VersaOBJECT CO-i Series
Superior inks for premium finishes
Precision ink firing and powerful LED lamps cure the ink almost instantly while delivering stunning images and high colour saturation as well as precisely reproducing the finest details, from small text to elaborately textured patterns and gradations.
The CO-i series supports CMYKOrRe and Clear, White, and Primer inks. The use of Clear ink produces unique finishing effects such as gloss or matte textures and simulated embossing. High-opacity White ink is often used as a base coat when printing on transparent film or dark objects while Orange and Red inks enable accurate colour reproduction of brand colours as well as unparalleled colour expression.
Printable primer enables printing on materials that were previously difficult to print on, such as glass and metal, making it ideal for personalisation of a large variety of consumer products as well as the customisation of industrial products and parts, interior decoration, sign graphics, POP displays, packaging, and other high-mix, low-volume production.
Business centred hardware and software
The integrated control panel and advanced features such as static electricity remover and automatic printhead cleaning ensure effortless operation and stable print quality, even in limited workspaces.
CO-i series printers come with VersaWorks 6 software, Roland DG’s powerful and intuitive RIP, which processes PDF, EPS, PS files with precision and high speed and auto-generates White, Gloss and Primer layers with one button to maximise the capabilities of the CO-i series.
The CO-i series also supports cloud-based services, including Roland DG Connect, for more efficient business operations and growth, including better support in the event of errors, operational visibility, easy profit calculations and more. It also features PrintAutoMate for businesses like e-commerce who handle a wide variety of data, media, and products, and require continuous output in large batches.
“The diversification and individualisation of consumer needs has led to an increasing demand for timely and flexible responses that are attentive to the needs of each individual customer,” Miller said.
