Introducing the Roland CAMMJET

The CAMMJET as a Printer 

Roland is proud to launch the revolutionary CAMMJET 1440 dpi Piezo inkjet printer/cutter combining all of the printing features of the award-winning Hi-Fi JET plus full-contour cutting. The CAMMJET provides accurate, consistent color simulation of PANTONE® Colors when printing in orange and green. Just like the Hi-Fi JET, the CAMMJET is calibrated for PANTONE® Hexachrome®† printing. It can accurately simulate over 97% of the PANTONE® Colors.
The printing quality on the CAMMJET is outstanding with user-selected options of 1440, 720, 540, 360 and 180 dpi resolutions matched to Roland media for sign output.

The CAMMJET prints using six-colors, CMYK, plus Orange and Green for vivid colors and PANTONE® Color matching or CMYK, Light Cyan and Light Magenta for smoother gradations and skin tones in photographic quality images. Independent testing has shown Roland’s exclusive UV stable pigment inks to have remarkable print permanence.

540 dpi = QUALITY + SPEED

The CAMMJET adds one print speed to the capabilities of the Hi-Fi JET with 540 dpi. The addition of this print speed – designed specifically for signmakers – the perfect trade-off between speed and quality. 540 dpi produces excellent photo-quality images every time on high-gloss vinyl and PET-G media at the print speeds necessary for signmakers.

The CAMMJET as a Cutter

Roland is recognized in the sign industry for its superb media moving and cutting engineering. The Roland CAMMJET features the very latest in Roland cutting technology. As a sign cutter, the CAMMJET utilizes the same cutting technology as Roland’s high production CAMM-1 Pro series of vinyl cutters. Boasting a maximum cutting speed of 24 inches per second, cutting increments accurate to 0.025mm, and new curve smoothing functions to enhance total throughput, the CAMMJET is truly the ultimate sign production solution.

Automatic Optical Registration

One of the most exciting innovations on the new CAMMJET is Automatic Optical Registration. This places registration marks during printing so that output can be removed from the CAMMJET for lamination then returned to the CAMMJET for contour cutting. The CAMMJET automatically realigns the cutting path and perfectly contour cuts – every time.

PANTONE® Calibrated

Roland's CAMMJET is a PANTONE® Calibrated printer. This means Pantone, Inc. has developed color data that will best represent PANTONE MATCHING SYSTEM® Colors on the CAMMJET. Remember, each printer model has its own color reproduction capabilities and characteristics. Pantone color scientists create specially tuned color data which optimizes the reproduction of PANTONE Colors. This takes into consideration all the color variables to determine the optimal representation on that printer. Pantone takes into consideration the ink set, paper stock, screening, driver and other issues that affect color. The CAMMJET and the Hi-Fi JET are the only six-color inkjet printing-devices that are PANTONE Calibrated for PANTONE Hexachrome®.

The CAMMJET features:

· 1440 dpi photo realistic printing 
· Clean, reliable Roland Piezo inkjet technology
· Print & contour cut on one machine
· Automatic optical registration
· Adjustable print head heights (up to 1.0mm media thickness)
· Proof-quality printing with PANTONE® Hexachrome®
· Exclusive UV stable pigment inks
· Two interchangeable six-color ink set options
· Roland ColorChoice® driver level RIP for Windows® 95/98/NT and Mac®
· Adobe® PostScript® 3™

Includes Roland ColorChoice® RIP

The CAMMJET includes the powerful Roland ColorChoice® 3.0 Adobe® PostScript® 3™ software which provides powerful RIP, cutting and output functions. ColorChoice® 3.0 software is designed specifically for print & cut machines, so you can handle printing and cutting operations simultaneously from a single data file from a wide range of software applications including Illustrator 7.0/8.0 and Freehand 7.0/8.0.

The CAMMJET works with Windows® 98/95/NT 4.0 and Mac®. Included ICC profiles are optimized for the specific Roland media, the degree of resolution and the inkset to ensure ideal color output every time. 

Additional Features

It is critical that printers used daily in business be easy to maintain and the CAMMJET is designed to do just that. Large (220ml) capacity, changing ink cartridges is a clean, one-step operation. And the CAMMJET monitors the ink levels in each color, notifying the user when one color needs replacing.

The CAMMJET features a media feeding mechanism designed to keep media perfectly aligned for printing and cutting. This translates into perfect registration of all six colors on signs and posters as well as long, continuous printing. Cutting distance accuracy is within 0.4% and the repetition accuracy is only 0.004 inches or less!

The CAMMJET features Piezo print heads that have a proven reputation for reliability. Equipped with automatic self-cleaning functions, the print heads produce perfect print quality every time. 

Rolls or sheets of media are easily loaded and secured with a single lever. Adjustable head heights (up to 1.0mm media thickness for printing) are also managed with a single, easily accessible lever.

An optional take-up system is available for rolling extra long continuous-feed prints. This makes unattended printing even easier.

CAMMJET

Speed

The CAMMJET is targeted for high quality output where color fidelity is paramount. However, the device has several different print modes offering users a wide range of speeds and print quality modes. The CAMMJET adds one print speed to the capabilities of the Hi-Fi JET with 540 dpi. The addition of this print speed – designed specifically for signmakers – the perfect trade-off between speed and quality. 540 dpi produces excellent photo-quality images every time on high-gloss vinyl and PET-G media at the print speeds necessary for signmakers. The chart below illustrates the various print modes, resolution settings, and the resulting production capacity in square feet per hour.
