  1. S80600 weird effect in white

    Yes sorry. This is supposed to be a full flood of white over the colored image. The more we're looking into this, the more we think this could be a static issue.
  2. S80600 weird effect in white

    Customer is printing reverse on clear, with a white layer on top. Colour portion of the print is perfectly fine, but the white is causing some extremely weird effects and I'm at a loss as to the cause. Test prints are fine, print head physically looks brand new. This is a new machine roughly 3...
  3. Need Help Vp540 missing Long Clear Plexi cover in front - does this affect dry times?

    I can't remember if your machine supports it, but many Roland printers (newer ones at least) have a dry time feature that will let the vinyl sit on the platen before it will go back to cut. It has to be enabled on the printer itself, I do believe it is an option in Versaworks as well but if you...
  4. Frank Fellers, the Owner of Fellers Has started his own wrap shop doing wraps for $1,000

    So what's the problem here? He's using cheap likely china-based wrap vinyl and doing R&D on customers who wouldn't be willing to pay top dollar for a wrap anyway. If you are a reputable shop, why are you worried. To me this is no different than you competing against a guy running out of a garage...
  5. Star Media Poly Banner on Latex

    Hey, I'm from TG and I would imagine since this is our house brand you likely have received this from one of our locations. There's always a possibility that the roll might be defective, though from what you are describing this might be printer related. If you are unable to resolve the issue...
  6. How Do I Change Out My Encoder Strip On A VP540i?

    It's not that hard, I like to use gloves so that I don't get fingerprints on the encoder. You don't really need to remove much for covers, I don't when I service machines. It is easier to get at with the top cover off though. It's simply a matter of removing the spring from the left hand side...
  7. Service call 0196

    I'm a Roland tech and that service call error is not one I'm familiar with. Not listed in the documents I have at least. What is the printer? Any more information? I'll see if I can find anything.
  8. Vendor for .125" aluminum with white finish

    Aluminum composite wouldn't work?
  9. Roland SG300 vinyl not tracking accurate

    Before you swap any parts I would confirm that your machine is level, and that the bars that your media holders sit on are square on the machine. Also, slowing down the up-speed can help if you are experiencing slippage. Also take a look at the left and right pinch roller assemblies, on two...
  10. Eco-Sol MAX Ink (440ml cartridge) From Digiprint?

    That's some insane pricing if those are OEM. I would say the labels do look correct for both the OEM ESL3 (max1) and ESL4 (max 2) cartridges. Hard to say for sure since the photos are so blurry. Are they blowing out old ink? They should be good for 2 years from manufacture date.
  11. Need Help coreldraw X8 eps file corrupt

    I have actually found from my experience that it is a Versaworks issue and not related to Corel. I haven't seen it happen so much lately but try running Versaworks as an Administrator and see if that does anything. Shot in the dark but maybe it will work for you.
  12. Any used GS-24 parts machines out there?

    Hey guys, I'm trying to fix a GS-24 we've been having issues with. Not getting a fluid motion in the cut carriage motion, which has been traced to gears missing teeth. Specifically the gear on the motor is the issue, connecting to the plastic pully assembly that drives the belt. We replaced the...
