Ever feel like you've been waiting all day for a print? Not with the Hi-Fi JET PRO II. It can print up to 28 m²/hr (300 sqft/hr). That's not draft mode; that's a unique, sign-quality mode created by Roland especially for sign, exhibit and POP makers! Printing a large 1.3 x 5 m banner now takes only 14 minutes. But blazing print speed is only part of the story. The PRO II's remarkable production velocity is the result of numerous technological enhancements.

Six one-inch precision heads cover a large printing area while firing 360 nozzles per color.

Hi-Fi JET PRO II supports Ethernet 100Base-TX networks for high-speed data transfer and workgroup operation. Included with the Hi-Fi JET PRO II, the new, more powerful Roland COLORIP (RCR) software RIP has been designed especially for the PRO II family.*¹⁾ The RIP engine incorporates more horsepower and efficiency for faster data processing. RCR also provides more powerful simultaneous RIP&Print capabilities to speed up your daily operation.

*1) RCR is compatible with Windows® 2000/XP and Windows Viata®.

The Hi-Fi JET PRO II combines Piezo print heads, accurately providing precise droplets and variable droplet technology to achieve stunning color reproduction. The crisp detail and high fidelity of the Hi-Fi JET PRO II's true 1440 x 1440 dpi resolution make it ideal for enlargements of fine art, photography, or mural-size graphics. Downy soft hairs, finely textured human skin - these are but a sample of the Hi-Fi JET PRO II's amazing ability to reproduce photographic quality.

Variable droplet technology utilizes micro-precise ink droplets of three different sizes depending on the type of output. This state-of-the-art technology delivers truly breathtaking output with beautifully smooth and dot-free tones even at high speed. In combination with RCR, variable droplet technology delivers truly uncompromising quality for the most discerning applications.

Designed to maximize performance of the Hi-Fi JET PRO II, RCR provides professional quality printing including precision color management. RCR is PostScript® compatible, making the Hi-Fi JET PRO II easy to use with Adobe® Photoshop®, Adobe® Illustrator®, Macromedia FreeHand®, QuarkXPress™ and other popular graphics software.

The Hi-Fi JET PRO II offers a choice of 6-color printing. CMYK plus light cyan (Lc) and light magenta (Lm) is ideal for faithfully reproducing skin tones, soft pastels and metallic surfaces with superb, natural color gradations. CMYK plus orange (Or) and green (Gr) delivers unrivaled color gamut and the ability to match spot colors with confidence. The Hi-Fi JET PRO II uses two 220 cc ink cartridges per color.
*2) LcLm and OrGr inks cannot be used simultaneously.

*3) Pigmented and dye-based inks cannot be used simultaneously.
*4) Lamination is required to protect output from abrasion, acid rain or other harsh environmental conditions.
*5) Dye-based ink is available in CMYK plus LcLm only.
