Ah-ha! You're right! I didn't realize our old Queues got removed from our old machine (VS540i) and were replaced with new ones (I was out of the room for that part)
We went into the new Queues and checked the "Convert To Spot Color" boxes and they are printing correctly now.
You'd think the...
Here are some of the colors that are off when printed from an Illustrator .eps file compared to the Color Chart. As far as we can tell, ALL the colors are off from the way they print on the color chart.
Oops! Sorry! I confused while dealing with two different issues. One was that Roland didn't supply a swatch set for the Orange colors as in the printed library photo above (which we now have) and the color charts printed from the new printer being way off from swatches when used in jobs...
This is our own chart, on our media in the photo above. There is no Illustrator swatch file for the new orange spot colors that correspond with it though.
So, for instance, I can't be working in Illustrator and choose to print the color [Chart 1 > D, 109] without the corresponding Illustrator...
Thanks, but those are the same files that we have already. This is what we want to use the spot colors of:

Just got our new TruVis VG2 installed yesterday and it's been working and printing really well - until...
We have a job with some spot colors that I chose from the Roland Color System Library Color Chart that we printed.
The colors are WAY off. For instance PR21J on the chart looks like...
Thanks for the reply. The tech that replaced the boards also ran all of the calibrations and had it cutting pretty decent when he left. That was at the end of May (2018) and the end of the 2 yr warranty. It wasn't too long afterward, maybe just a few weeks, that the cutting started getting...
Do you mean the permanently mounted ones, or the ones that can slide in and out? And where on it was the crack that you found? We looked them over and haven't found any cracks yet.
Anyone else have a VS540i with registration issues?
This machine has been a major p.i.t.a. for us since we got it just over 2 years ago. Right away we noticed that the print/cut registration frequently off - much more so than our VP540 when print/cutting the exact same things.
We used to...
We use our VP540 as a cutter-only now. I don't think you can disable print mode to make a "cut only" setup.
Just use empty ink carts (pull the tabs off that stick out to signal to the machine that the carts are empty). On the machine go in and turn off the pre-heat dryer, and in the rip...
Do you mean with a specific version of Versaworks, or a specific plotter?
Never in over ten years of printing and cutting on Roland plotters using eps files at least 99% of the time have we ever experienced the cut-lines being cut off.

"Conversely, polycarbonate’s “outgassing” is primarily due to water moisture trapped in an undried sheet. Polycarbonate readily absorbs moisture soon after manufacturing. To remove this moisture, which often interferes with vinyl adhesion resulting in bubbles...
