Roland DG and Sabur Ink Systems combine technologies in fluorescent dye system
Working in conjunction with Roland DG (UK), Sabur Ink Systems has introduced what it believes to be the world’s first fluorescent wide-format inkjet printer which incorporates dye sublimation inks. Designated the Roland 4+2 Flo, the solution is based on the technology of the established 1.37m SolJet Pro III XC-540MT printer’s dual pump and recirculation system and incorporates Manoukian’s standard CMYK ink range plus a fluorescent yellow and red.
The introduction of this fluorescent ink range enables two additional, and unusual, colour options to be available in a single printer, with the selection of palettes made easily with the click of a mouse. The resulting colours are vibrant and output opens new doors to print companies wanting to move into the sector for digital textiles, particularly within the sports and fashion industries.
Dean Sanger, managing director of Sabur Ink Systems, said: “We are expecting a high level of interest in this state-of-the-art printer, with particular demand coming from the fashion industry sector. The Roland 4+2 Flo wide-format system is easy to use and, as such, is certain to appeal to all users who want to broaden their inkjet production into new areas.”
