The Roland DG TrueVIS LG and MG Series are UV printer/cutters designed for businesses that want to produce a wider range of high-value graphics in-house. They combine printing and contour cutting in a single workflow, with UV-LED ink technology, white ink, gloss effects, and extended colour configurations, depending on the chosen model.

In practical terms, this means a print business can move beyond standard graphics and offer applications such as window graphics, stickers and labels, backlit displays, POP displays, packaging prototypes, decals, short-run signage and textured print effects. The value is not only creative. It is operational too. More work can be produced internally, with less reliance on outsourcing and greater control over quality, timing, and margins.

The LG and MG Series give print businesses access to applications that are difficult to produce with standard CMYK printing alone. High-opacity white ink supports printing on transparent, dark or coloured materials. Gloss ink can add texture, raised effects or premium details. Red and Orange inks, where selected, help reproduce stronger brand colours and more vivid graphics.

For a business, this matters because customers rarely ask for “UV technology”. They ask for a window graphic that looks clean from both sides, a label that feels more premium, a prototype that looks closer to the final product, or a display that stands out at close range. The LG and MG Series turn those requests into real production opportunities.

The TrueVIS MG Series is a good fit for smaller print businesses, owner-led sign shops, companies moving up from entry-level print and cut, and users familiar with previous Roland VersaUV LEC or LEC2 models who want a more accessible route into UV roll-to-roll production.

MG is especially relevant when the business wants UV versatility, but does not yet need the higher productivity and production features of the LG Series. It suits short-run signage, labels, decals, packaging samples, prototypes and occasional premium-effect work. It can also make sense for businesses that want to reduce outsourcing and test new services without moving to a higher-volume platform immediately.

The MG series is the more approachable UV print-and-cut option for businesses that need flexibility, professional output, and a manageable investment.

The TrueVIS LG Series is the stronger choice for busier sign shops, print service providers and production-focused environments where volume, deadlines and repeatability matter every day. It is designed for businesses that already handle a steady flow of work, or want to take on more without making production feel fragile.

LG is better suited when the business needs faster output, easier day-to-day operation, larger ink capacity, integrated take-up for longer runs, automatic calibration support and more productive multilayer printing. This is where LG becomes more than a UV printer/cutter. It becomes a production tool for businesses that need quality and speed to work together.

UV-LED printing cures the ink during the printing process, so printed graphics can move more quickly into cutting, finishing or delivery. That can make a real difference when customers expect short lead times or when a shop has to manage many small jobs on the same day.

This is not just about printing faster. It is about reducing the waiting time between steps. For applications such as stickers, window graphics, POP displays, packaging prototypes or short-run promotional work, that shorter workflow can help a business respond faster, keep more jobs moving and avoid losing time in the gaps between production stages.

The LG Series combines several features that matter in real production: staggered printheads, powerful UV-LED lamps, 750 ml ink pouches, a 7-inch touchscreen, automatic calibration, an integrated take-up unit and one-pass multilayer printing. Taken separately, these are technical features. Together, they reduce the time operators spend preparing, checking, correcting, and restarting work.

That is the benefit a production manager or business owner will recognise. The machine helps keep work moving. It supports longer runs. It reduces friction during setup. It gives the operator clearer information. It makes complex UV work, including layered print with white, colour, gloss, more manageable in daily production.

The LG and MG Series are part of a wider Roland DG workflow, not just standalone UV printers/cutters. VersaWorks provides the RIP environment for preparing and managing print and cut jobs, including colour management, special colour workflows and production settings for UV applications. Roland DG Connect adds another layer of control by helping users monitor printer status, production activity and maintenance-related information. It can also support cost and production analysis, helping businesses better understand expenses and make more informed decisions about job value and profitability. For roll-to-roll visual communication work, Roland DG Connect Designer with the Visual Communication module can help operators prepare print-and-cut graphics more efficiently, with tools for contour cutting, white-ink setup, background removal, and advanced print preparation.

For a print business, the benefit is practical. The team can prepare jobs, monitor production and understand business performance with greater confidence. That helps reduce uncertainty, protect margins and keep daily work under control.
