Roland DG Connect Offers Expanded Operational Capabilities

Roland DG has announced the launch of the new Roland DG Connect subscription service.

Roland DG Connect is a cloud-based app designed to increase value and business growth by providing a more comfortable and stable operating environment, improved workflow efficiency, tools for increased business development and profitability and enabling users to collaborate and share ideas.

“Today, we are proud to announce that Roland DG Connect will offer three new services. Roland DG Connect provides faster, more proactive support, visualisation of the status of various functions and machine data, easily calculates profitability, and quickly downloads media output profiles,” says Tony Miller, President Global Sales and Marketing Division, Roland DG.

The Business Dashboard provides expanded functionality to enable multi-dimensional analysis of a variety of data. Customers can quickly visualise detailed information on ink consumption, printing time and output in square metres for multiple printers. They can also measure the achievement of target operation rates for more profitable business planning, efficient management, and waste-free inventory control.

Secondly, a multi-user function allows customers to view information on devices remotely. For example, in a company with multiple locations, information can be managed from a central point for printers at each location. This can be useful in formulating company-wide operation plans, improving ink ordering efficiency by centrally managing ink consumption, and understanding the maintenance status of each device.

Finally, the automatic backup function of VersaWorks RIP software automatically saves print settings and restores them at the touch of a button when needed, thereby supporting the smooth resumption of operations in the event of PC malfunction, addition, or replacement.

“As consumer needs continue to diversify and trend cycles shorten,” Miller adds, “it is becoming increasingly important for businesses to create and deliver unique value in a timely manner. In the printing industry, on-demand printing using inkjet printers is common, and an increasing number of customers are using different types of printers together or installing multiple printers to improve productivity. Under these circumstances, knowledge of how to conduct printing operations efficiently and without waste has become critical to achieving a highly competitive and sustainable business. Roland DG Connect allows customers to visualise key information about their devices, helping them to meet these challenges. We will continue to accelerate the expansion of its functions and contribute to the realisation of new creative and business opportunities for our customers.”

A campaign to celebrate the launch of the subscription service will run until the end of December 2023. During this period, customers can take advantage of special pricing and a free one-month trial of the premium version.
