Roland’s TrueVIS line has gone through several ink generations, which makes it easy to order the wrong platform. This guide is a plain-English cross-reference to help you confirm whether your TrueVIS printer uses the TR2 ink platform before requesting a quote. All ink discussed here should be treated as compatible aftermarket replacement ink unless a quote specifically states OEM.
TrueVIS models commonly associated with TR2
| TrueVIS model | Commonly associated ink platform | Typical supply format |
|---|---|---|
| VG3 / SG3 | TR2 | 500 ml pouch |
| VG2 / SG2 | TR2 | 500 ml pouch |
| VF2 | TR2 | 500 ml pouch |
This is a cross-reference guide only. Confirm the ink platform in your printer’s documentation before ordering, as Roland ink generations are not cross-compatible.
White ink (TR2-WH)
TR2-WH white ink applies only to white-capable TrueVIS configurations. Standard configurations should not be assumed to run white ink. White is best handled as a quote or special-order item, and compatibility should be verified against your exact machine.
