SOLJET Pro 4 XR-640 Large-Format Printer/Cutter Features
State of the Art Print Engine
The XR-640 features two gold-plated 8-channel piezo inkjet heads with 180 nozzles per channel for high-speed, high-quality printing. With Roland Intelligent Pass Control technology and variable dot control producing droplets of seven different sizes, the XR-640 achieves smooth gradations, exceptional solid colors and superior photographic reproduction in all print modes.
The print heads are arranged in an inline formation and configured in a mirrored pattern, virtually eliminating chromatic banding in bi-directional printing.
Advantage of Integrated Print/Cut
The ability to use a single device to take a print/cut job from start to finish creates a tremendous competitive advantage for print service providers. By automatically contour cutting printed graphics as soon as they finish printing, the XR-640 eliminates the need to reload and reposition graphics, saving valuable time and effort, and saving on the cost of a stand-alone cutter. With its included TU-2 take-up system, the Pro 4 is capable of performing long, unattended print/cut runs, or functioning as a stand-alone vinyl cutter.
Roland’s Quadralign four-point optical registration system allows users to remove prints, laminate and reload them for precision cutting. Quadralign automatically realigns the cutting path and compensates for skew and distortion.
Advanced Production and Media Handling
With print speeds of up to 528 sqft. per hour (49 m2/h) for CMYK applications, as well as print/cut capability, the XR-640 expedites the production process.
The Pro 4 XR-640 is a true production large-format printer/cutter, featuring a media feed and take-up system that accommodates rolls of up to 88 pounds (40 kg) for long, unattended printing. Adjustable print heads enable the XR to print on various media thicknesses.

Integrated Tri-Heater System
The XR-640 dries prints quickly – even in high-speed mode – for immediate collection by the take-up system, finishing and installation. An integrated tri-heater system features three components: a pre-heater that improves media receptiveness, a print heater to accelerate ink fastness and brightness, and a dryer to accelerate the drying process and improve productivity and scratch resistance. All can be controlled from either the printer panel or Roland VersaWorks.
Optional DU-640 Heater/Blower Available
An optional DU-640 heater/blower unit provides the ability to print highly saturated images at full speed while using the take-up system. For increased media feeding accuracy during print/cut operations, the DU-640 also enables users to take full advantage of all the XR-640 pinch rollers. A DU-640 is required for printing with White and Metallic inks.
