On-Board Primer Makes Printing on Difficult Materials Easy

Previously, when you wanted to print on a material that ink doesn’t easily adhere to, it was necessary to manually apply a primer coat. To shorten the production process, the LEF2 series features an optional on-board Primer* cartridge for priming objects quickly and conveniently on a variety of different materials. Users can easily prepare an object for customization by first printing Primer ink directly from the VersaWorks software before printing full-color graphics. The possibilities of UV printing can now be expanded to an even wider variety of materials.

* For best primer results, it is strongly recommended that users test for adhesion on specific substrates prior to final production.

From Hard to Soft Materials and From Flat to Curved Objects

Capable of stretching around the most complex corners and curves as well as printing on soft materials such as leather and fabric, advanced Roland ECO-UV ink formulations are designed for both flexibility and beautiful imaging. With the LEF2-300/200, materials up to 100 mm (3.94 in.) thick can be loaded, and a height tolerance of 2 mm facilitates printing on irregular and curved objects. Furthermore, the new LEF2-300D supports a maximum thickness of 200 mm (7.87 in.) in the height direction, allowing you to print not only on thicker materials, but also on a wider variety of shapes by incorporating a more diverse assortment of jigs.

High Quality Output, Performed Easily and Efficiently

The LEF2 series incorporates a host of advanced functions to simplify high quality print jobs. A Start Timer Function completes setup procedures for printhead cleaning and white ink circulation automatically by your designated start time, so you can begin printing immediately after loading the materials. A positioning jig makes it easy to align items on the print table.

More Efficient Reprinting

The LEF2 series adopts a Multiple Print function that can perform continuous printing efficiently. Previously, when printing the same data continuously, it was necessary to send print data from the included software each time when loading materials. Now with the the Multiple Print function, you can perform the next print just by pressing the start button on the machine without returning to the software.

Monitor Operation Status in Real Time

Roland DG Printer Status Monitor” supports smart printing operations so you can instantly check the operation status of multiple printers, including printing, waiting, and emergency stop errors on a monitor. You can manage your entire printing operation remotely, allowing you to set up your next production process without wasting time.
