Roland SG540 Truevis Reviews

[Stephen Morriss]

I’d like to hear from anyone who has one of these printers too, thinking of getting one to replace my old SP540V.

I have the SG 300 and it is awesome, my only real gripe with it is finding the registrations marks after laminating, takes quite a bit of messing around, I have even left the vinyl in printed then cut with the marks and it says it can’t find them, a bit if adjusting and patience it eventually finds them but can be frustrating otherwise good machine.

Remove the media clamps and should work fine :thumbsup:

Good to hear Mark. How long do you leave heavy print areas to outgas and are you finding the prints durable if not laminated?

Hi Steve
I tend to leave them 24hrs to be on the safe side, not had any problems there.

What I will say is I am impressed with Roland, after posting my little review and tiny gripe I got a call from Matt and have now corrected the issue over the phone, turned out to be a simple firmware update. So top marks Roland from me.

Well I bit the bullet and bought an SG540, happy so far, very fast compared with my old SP540V, I keep setting jobs up and sending them to print, turn away and they’re done!
Print quality is good too with the lowest quality easily good enough for most jobs.
