I need your review about Roland AJ-1000.
Hello guys! I intend to purchase a Roland AJ-1000 and I need to hear something good (I hope) from you. What do you think about it?
Thanks a lot! -

what are your primary jobs planned for it? i.e. what sort of work did you buy it to produce?
-
There is an electoral campaign coming next year:)…. And for other jobs like printing on mesh, banner (billboard). And, if the printer can (and I mean good quality, not very good quality), I want to use it also for vinyl jobs (not so pretentious ones).
I want to know if there are problems with the print-heads, pumps and other stuff. What about the ink? What are the production costs regarding the ink consumption? -
i would say its ideal for that and more…
the quality on vinyl is very good for vehicle work and the like…
its a fast machine and runs very well.
i have the AJ 740 along with a rebranded soljet 2 and it never misses a beat… ive never had a single issue with it…ink costs etc are down to who you use as a supplier, what you are printing onto at the time and more.

Are you using original eco-extreme LT ink?
-
No, i am using Colorific Pro Aj Inks. They are plug and play… no profiling, nothing… had the machine about 18 months or more.
-
Do you have a bulk system or those are 1liter cartridges? Have you replaced anything in 18 months?
Thanks for your time! -
1 litre carts…
ive replaced nothing, works the same as it did the day it was installed. -
This is great news! Thank you Robert for your time. I guess if anything goes wrong, once again I’m going to work with Digiprint. I guess they have all the spare parts I will eventually need. 😀
-
yeh i would think digiprint will be able to source anything you may need, but i doubt you will have any broken parts for a good while yet.
are you buying it in the UK or elsewhere?
probably all gone now, but there was AJ740’s going for something like £11k in the UK a couple of months back. ide guess gone now as it was while stocks last, but maybe worth contacting Grafityp on that one. -
I will buy it from a Roland dealer in Romania. The price for a brand new AJ740 is around 17k euros. I expect a good offer for AJ 1000 :).
