INTRODUCING OUR FOUR NEWEST HIGH-PERFORMANCE PRINTERS.

QUALITY AND VALUE ON A GRAND SCALE.
Were pleased to announce the introduction of four new Roland devices that bring pure print performance to
center stage. The PRO III XJ series features a revolutionary Precision Firing Pattern that combines advanced droplet
technology with precisely-controlled media movement to deliver richly saturated 6-color prints with virtually no
banding at resolutions up to 1440 dpi. For serious power users, the AJ-740 delivers beautiful, durable graphics up to
74 wide on banner, vinyl and flexible face media including backlits at speeds up to 871 sqft/hr. A host of remarkable
features make it the most versatile, low maintenance inkjet printer in its class.
It takes more than a great printer to make a great print. It takes every element printer, inks, media and
software working in perfect harmony. It takes the Roland Color Matching System for true spot color matching.
And it takes customer education and support that allows you to get the most out of every print.
We call this Roland ProFusion, and we do it better than anyone.
Vibrant images that pop, crystal-clear details that sparkle, subtle gradients that blend without banding, spot
colors that hit the target. Thats music for your eyes the kind of performance you should be looking for in your printer.

Comprehensive specs on 135+ printers.
>cbVcnlVnh!add`^c\[dgVcZleg^ciZg isnt all that different

from looking for a new house. Yes, finding and evaluating homes can be
done by simply driving through neighborhoods or searching specific real-
estate websites. Generally, however, buyers identify their new home with
the help of housing listingsaka MLS listingsthat are compiled by real-
estate specialists.
These MLS listings contain the same information on all homes: from
exact location, square footage, number of bedrooms and baths, to type of
heating system, local schools, taxes, lot size, and much more. While few of
us would purchase a home based solely on the information found in an MLS
listing, these listings do serve a critical function: They put all homes on an
equal playing field, allowing the home buyer to compare apples to apples
and oranges to oranges as he or she does an initial search. This way, smart
buyers can quickly narrow their search from hundreds of homes that fit
their broad specs to dozens that may have a feature or two they are partic-
ularly enamored with. MLS listings serve another purpose as well: You can
often spot trends in various housing features that influence the propertys
valuejust a decade or two ago, for instance, it would have been rare to
see a deck listed, but now its rare to not see that feature show up.
Which brings us to the rollfed printer charts found on the following
pages. The Big Picture has assembled the same type of listings that real-
estate agents providein our case, complete and accurate information
and specs on the markets current wide-format printers. Think wide-
format real estate.

Specs on more than 60 flatbed

and hybrid printers.
6hi]^h^hhjZgZVY^Zh[dgegZhh, the highly anticipated Apple iPhone has just

made its grand entrance into the marketplace. And as it is with the debut of virtually
any high-tech product, people already are wondering when and how Apple will top itself
when the next generation of the iPhone is unveiled.
Granted, the type of hysteria surrounding the launch of the iPhone (aka iPhoria)
is not something that were likely to experience in the wide-format marketplaceno
printer OEM, for instance, has ever reported hundreds of customers lining up outside
their doorway for their latest printer to go on sale.
Thats not to say, however, that print providers dont anxiously anticipate
the newest printers or speculate about the latest features or technol-
ogy advancements that might be found in the brand-new models.
At the same time, of course, they continue to be challenged by the
number of new printers and models that appear in the marketplace. It
has become a daunting task to keep track of just which printersrollfed
or flatbedare currently offered, are no longer offered, or are in transition
(either on their way out of the market but yet to make their final bow, or on their
way into the market, but still in beta, etc.).
To help, we present our annual Flatbed Printer charts to assist you in navigating
the shifting landscape of flatbed and hybrid printers. And shifting is it ever: This years
flatbed charts include approximately 30 new printers or models compared to the 2006
charts; however, nearly 20 printer models that appeared on last years lists have been
removedfor the most part, because they are no longer in production.
In the midst of this change, however, there are some consistent patterns to be
found. The white ink trend, for instance, continues to grow: 22 printers, compared
with last years 14, offer white ink as standard or optional. Additionally, UV-curable ink

is still, by far, the predominant inkset used with these printers. Rising costs are, unfortunately for
your pocketbook, another consistent trend: The Inca Onset, a new addition to this years charts,
comes in at a whopping $3 million, for example.
This years chart lists more than 60 flatbed and hybrid printers from 26 printer manufacturers in
the US and abroad. Print widths range from 48 to 188 in., and the listed printers boast various reso-
lutions, an increase in choices when it comes to inksets and RIPs, and maximum output speeds
that range from 75 sq ft/hr to 5000+ sq ft/hr.
Some notes here on the specs we chose and the answers youll see for each:
Company and contact: Weve listed the manufacturing company rather than the distributor. If
a company has an exclusive US distributor, weve listed that information in the Notes area.
Printer model: Weve generally combined models if the only difference between them is maxi-
mum media width or number of colors offered.
Maximum media width (in inches): Note that this is media width, not image widthtypically,
image width will be 1 to 2 in. less than media width. Minimum here is 24 in.
Maximum media thickness: Listed in millimeters or inches.
Media: What kind of media will the printer handleroll, sheet, rigid? Again, we did not chart
printers that are primarily rollfed (see our July issue for these).
Printhead technology: All machines listed are inkjet piezo.
Colors: How many colors does the printer support? We did not include monochrome units.
Ink types accepted: Aqueous dye? Aqueous pigmented? Solvent? Mild-solvent? UV-curable?
Oil-based? Sublimation?
Minimum true/apparent resolution: What is the minimum true/apparent resolution in dots per
inch (dpi)?
Maximum true/apparent resolution: What is the maximum true/apparent resolution in dots
per inch?
Maximum speed at a specific resolution: What is the printers fastest speed (sq ft/hr) and
resolution (dpi)? Note that some manufacturers provided the speed but not the resolution.
High-quality speed at a specific resolution: What is the speed (sq ft/hr) and resolution (dpi)
for high-quality printing? Again, some manufacturers provided the speed, but not the resolution.
RIP: What type of RIP comes standard with the printer, if any? If its not standard, what optional
RIPs are available?
Year Intro: What year was the printer model introduced?
Price: What is the selling price of this printer, in US dollars? Prices range from the low-end
flatbeds/hybrids in the $40,000 to $60,000 range to top-end machines that carry a price tag of
$850,000 to $3 million.
Warranty: How long is the printer warranted for?
On-site service contract: Whats the cost of an on-site service contract?
Training: Is training standard with the purchase of the printer? Is it an option? If the latter, what
is the cost?
Notes: Additional information not covered in the chart cells.
As you go through the charts, keep in mind that all information was provided by the manufac-
turer/supplier. We asked for specs only on currently available printers or printers that would soon
be on the market. Some manufacturers did not provide information on newly released printers; in
addition, some manufacturers chose not to include models that seemed to still be on the market
and we honored these requests. Finally, note that some printer manufacturers were unable to reply
to our requests for information due to deadline constraints, so these printers were not included.
