TrueVIS XP-640 Large-Format Eco-Solvent Printer

The TrueVIS XP-640 is designed for sign shops and print service providers that need to handle a broad mix of work with speed, consistency, and confidence. It is well-suited to signage, banners, vehicle graphics, backlit displays, posters, wall graphics, wall art, and selected interior decoration projects. In practical terms, it is a strong fit for businesses that want to increase output without lowering quality, especially when customers expect reliable colour, repeatable results, and a wider application range than a standard production printer can usually offer.

The XP-640 combines dual-staggered printheads with high-speed data control to increase throughput without compromising image quality. Standard production speeds reach 15.2 m²/h in 8-colour vinyl mode and 22.5 m²/h in 4-colour vinyl mode, with much higher maximum speeds available for banner work. In daily production, that translates into something very practical: long runs can be finished sooner, urgent jobs are easier to absorb, and even media changes or schedule pressure tend to interrupt the day less than they would on a slower platform.

Because it makes more demanding work commercially realistic. In addition to CMYK, the 8-colour configuration adds Light Black, Orange, Green, and Red, which expands the colour gamut and improves smooth greys, vivid tones, and brand-sensitive colour reproduction. That matters when colour is part of the job value, not just part of the image. It gives the print business more confidence in premium work and, in some cases, opens the door to jobs that may previously have felt too risky because the colour expectations were simply too high.

It improves the workflow around the print engine, not just the print speed itself. The XP-640 includes a 7-inch touchscreen, media setup support, easy media loading, a take-up unit as standard, and perforated sheet cut support. These are not minor extras. They help reduce operator friction, shorten the gap between jobs, and make production feel more controlled when the day becomes busy. Speed matters, of course, but what usually protects productivity over time is the fact that setup and handling become easier as well.

The XP-640 includes several measures designed to improve print stability in real-world conditions. Roland has worked on specific areas that affect day-to-day production, such as reducing media floating on some PVC media, refining default media settings in VersaWorks, and introducing newer dither and banding-reduction technologies to improve consistency when conditions are less than ideal. For a print business, the benefit is concrete: fewer surprises during production, more stable output over longer runs, and less waste caused by issues that only become visible once a job is already underway.

The XP-640 comes with VersaWorks and Roland DG Connect, so the business already has the core software needed to start production quickly. VersaWorks manages job preparation and output, while Roland DG Connect helps users monitor printer status, production activity, and maintenance, including remote access to key machine information. In practical terms, this means the XP-640 does not arrive as hardware alone. It comes with the essential tools needed to get productive quickly.

Yes. The software environment can expand as production needs become more complex. VersaWorks 7 supports optional add-ons such as ColorMatch, VersaWorks Remote, VersaWorks Backup, and Extra Job Queue, while the XP-640 is also eligible for the Roland DG Connect Designer ecosystem, starting from Designer Basic and extending through additional modules as needed. This makes the system easier to scale without forcing the customer to rebuild the workflow from scratch.

Yes. The machine is designed to be productive without becoming difficult to manage. Its interface and setup logic help operators become effective quickly, which is especially useful in smaller businesses where one person often covers several responsibilities. In practice, this can shorten the re-skilling curve for a new hire, reduce the time needed to build confidence after installation, and help the team become operational quite quickly after a brief training period rather than after a long learning phase.

Because it is built around the combination that matters most to a cautious buyer: productivity, print quality, and operational reliability. The XP-640 is positioned as a machine focused on repeatable results, cost-efficiency, ease of use, and dependable day-to-day production. That is what makes it more than a printer that simply looks fast on paper. It is designed to help protect margins, delivery performance, and customer trust over time, which is usually what makes an investment feel right well beyond the first months of ownership.
