In addition to photo-realistic printing, the PC-12 contour cuts everything from traditional rectangular labels to intricate text, arcs and curves with precision and ease.

Wax Or Resin

Wax inks enable variable dot printing for eye-popping, photo-quality signage, comps or heat transfer decals at 1200 dpi. In addition to standard cyan, magenta, yellow and black (CMYK), gold and silver foils and clear coat ribbons are available. Using resin inks, the PC-12 produces high-impact, 600 dpi graphics that are water-, fade- and scratch-resistant, making them ideal for both indoor and outdoor applications. Resin ink colors include CMYK, plus spot red, white, blue and metallic gold and silver.

Nine Cartridges At Once

The PC-12’s nine-ink cartridge capacity and Automatic Cartridge Sensing (ACS) technology enables users to load a full accompaniment of spot colors in addition to traditional CMYK. They can load more cartridges of a most-used color, or load both resin and wax inks at the same time. If a cartridge runs out of ink, the PC-12 will pause the job until the used cartridge is replaced with a new one, then resume work with no loss in product quality.

RIP It

ColorChoice® is a true Adobe® PostScript®3™ multi-platform high-performance software application that enables you to control printing directly from your favorite Windows® and Macintosh® design applications. ColorChoice® also includes a wide variety of convenient functions such as automatically laying out and printing multiple copies, plus rotating and mirroring.

Windows Driver

Expertise with graphic design software is not required to use the PC-12. The Windows driver allows you to use word processing, spreadsheet or any Windows application for your graphics. Just press “Print” as you would for any desktop printer.

Plug & Play

The PC-12 offers plug-and-play connectivity with both Windows® and Mac-based operating platforms. A USB interface makes connecting easy. Simply take the PC-12 out of the box, snap in your ink cartridges and install Roland’s ColorChoice® software.

Cut After Lamination

The PC-12 prints registration marks during printing so that output can be removed from the PC-12 for lamination, then returned for contour cutting. The PC-12 automatically realigns the cutting path and perfectly cuts the material.
