  3. Something super strange happened and I just wasted a lot of vinyl. Versaworks 6 and Illustrator artboard issue? VW5 printed it correctly

    At first, I thought some layers did not get printed but I just did some small-scale prints and realized something else is happening.

    Just updated to 6.14.0 version and now If I wanna print and cut the printer first cuts the vinyl and then prints on it?!?!? Really weird.

  8. How to remove ink from Roland ink cartridges that still contain ink?

    i have been there and done that. 8-10 "empty" cartridges can give you a full 440cc cartridge. I usually just stand up the cartridge, cut the paper on top and bottom ( alongside the edge) and hit it with the hammer along the edge starting from the back. It will pop open. I have done this for a...
  9. Ready to burn Roland XR-640

    About versaworks, roland and spot colors in my experience: I believe when you work with spot colors it shouldn't matter if the file is rgb, cmyk or saved as eps or pdf. As long as versaworks recognizes the spot color ( make sure under file format the convert to spot color is checked) The only...

  13. Converting desk home / office ECOTANK printer to large format solvent ink???

    Has anyone tried this? Thinking about getting an ecotank printer and when the ink runs out I wonder if we could use eco solvent 2 inks. I have dozens of old cartridges that the Roland wide format printer won't take no more but I know there is still like a 100ml in each cartridge.
  14. Suggestions Recommendations for all around virus/email/malware/ransomware etc. protection?

    First of all store your files on a NAS. i don't think the windows ransomware can hit that. About the software.... to be honest with you i don't use anything on my work pc. At home I use eset nod32 for like 2 decades now.
