A Roland DG Connect subscription service has been introduced that offers three key features – business dashboard, multi-user function, and an automated backup function.
“Roland DG Connect enables us to provide faster, more proactive support to our customers, and allows users to easily visualise the status of their machine, calculate profitability, and quickly download media output profiles,” said Paul Willems, product management and business development director for EMEA.
“As consumer needs continue to diversify and trend cycles shorten,” Willems added, “it is becoming increasingly important for businesses to create and deliver unique value in a timely manner. 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 operate printing operations efficiently and without waste has become critical to achieving a highly competitive and sustainable business.
“We will continue to accelerate the expansion of the Roland DG Connect functions and contribute to the realisation of new creative and business opportunities for our customers.”
The ‘business dashboard’ provides expanded functionality to enable multidimensional analysis of a variety of data, such as ink consumption, printing time, output in square meters, and usage time. The ‘multi-user function’ allows users to view information on devices which they own but do not have physical access to, an ideal function for companies with devices across multiple locations.
The ‘automatic backup function’ of VersaWorks Rip software automatically saves print settings and restores them at the touch of a button when needed.
There’s an introductory price on the subscription service until the end of December 2023 and a free one-month trial of the premium version until then. Prices available on the website.
