That means the old XC-540 will not be able to use the new ink? You have to buy a new machine for this ink?
I've been unofficially told that is the case.

So, I was about to order my printer when.....
I've verified the following information with my local Roland rep at Proveer as well as a second source within the industry.
Roland will announce the availability of the new MT printer after 10/24/09. The first printers should ship sometime the first week of November.
My understanding is the cost is about $40,000. Includes an external dryer and the ink recirculation system for the white and silver ink. I'm working on getting some actual print samples.
So does anyone think I'm crazy for upgrading from the VP to the MT for my first printer?
I look at it this way......I can provide metallic prints for shops in the area. Hopefully I can do some additional wholesale business this way.
I'd like to hear your $.02
no thats not it.Is this the machine you are talking about? The Roland site says list is $60,000 US.
