Roland DG Connect: Faster, Smarter Print & Cut Workflows
If you’re a print professional running a Roland TrueVIS or BN2 Series printer-cutter, you already know that workflow efficiency is everything. Roland’s latest update to Roland DG Connect brings a suite of new tools designed to make print production smarter, faster, and easier to manage — whether you’re on the shop floor or managing jobs remotely.
The software now integrates seamlessly with VersaWorks 7, Roland’s advanced RIP engine. This means greater colour accuracy, faster processing, and real-time job data directly linked to your printer performance dashboard. It’s a leap forward for print shops looking to improve turnaround times and maintain colour consistency across multiple devices.
Beyond technical enhancements, Roland DG Connect helps you track your printers’ health, ink usage, and media costs all in one place. The result? Fewer surprises, fewer reprints, and a smoother production flow from design to delivery. For businesses scaling up, it’s a cost-effective way to stay in control of multiple machines — including the Roland VG3-540, BN2-20A and SG3-540.
In this post, we’ll cover the most useful updates from the new release — including the latest add-ons, key workflow improvements, and the mobile app that lets you monitor print jobs wherever you are. It’s everything Roland users need to stay connected and keep production running at full speed.
