-
Unbeatable AP-640 Promo Price. Our AP-640 TrueVIS Latex printer is now available for an incredible $9,995, costing significantly less than HP’s current HP 365 $11,495 Promo MSRP, which expires on August 31st. Grimco's HP 365 Price
-
Cost-Efficient Permanent Print Heads. The Roland AP-640 features permanent Piezo print heads, eliminating the HP 365’s recurring expense of replaceable heads. HP recommends replacing their thermal print heads every 2-4 ink sets (approximately every 2 months for a busy shop), costing $720 each time. Do the math: over five years, this adds up to $21,600—an expense you completely avoid with the AP-640’s durable Piezo print heads.
-
Superior Warranty Coverage. With Roland’s 2-year bumper-to-bumper warranty, the AP-640 offers double the coverage of the HP 365, which only includes a 1-year warranty. This extended protection ensures peace of mind and is a testament to the Roland AP-640’s long-term reliability.
-
Consistent Color Quality. The AP-640’s Piezo print heads ensure minimal color shifting and consistent color quality, unlike the HP 365’s thermal print heads, which can quickly shift colors and complicate color matching for repeat prints. The AP-640 also offers a broader color gamut for richer, more vibrant prints.
-
Enhanced Print Quality. Experience superior print quality with the AP-640’s variable size droplets, delivering photographic-quality output. In contrast, the HP 365’s large fixed 60 picoliter dot size can appear grainy.
-
Roland VersaWorks 6.0 RIP is included with free lifetime upgrades. In contrast, the HP 365 only offers a 12-month trial of FlexiRIP HP Basic, after which a subscription fee is required. The Roland VersaWorks 6.0 RIP also supports up to four Roland inkjet printers and vinyl cutters. This allows end-users to easily expand their business with Roland as they grow, maintaining a consistent and efficient workflow.
