Duša said: “In 2006, I bought a Roland printer as a Christmas present to myself. The package didn’t fit under the tree, but when Alphaset had installed the printer/cutter, I immediately began to work with it. I use my XC-540 for various indoor and outdoor applications. A large part of my production consists of personalized tags and labels for sports trophies. As the environment is becoming a hot topic, I am also searching for more environmentally friendly materials for the production of labels. Thanks to the high quality printing and cutting of the XC-540, I can produce beautiful, customized tags and labels quickly and economically in small quantities.” |

Just recently, the Donly Donovaly sports club organized an expedition to the North Pole. At the end, Miroslav Daňo, a member of the club, hoisted several flags. “The material had to be resistant to the very low temperatures at the North Pole which can drop to -40°C, so we chose a special polymeric banner. We used our XC-540 to print the flags directly on the SOLJET. Everybody was very satisfied with the results and we even made the news with our expedition,” Duša said proudly. |
