  1. Roland Test Print

    I have the same problem with my SP300V. I've changed the black head about every 12-18 months for the last 3-4 years and it looks just like your test print. I take great care of my printer and so I'm puzzled why the head just gets that way. No head strikes either but it doesn't get used every day...
  2. Discussion Roland Legacy printers questions

    I run an SP300V and SP540V and have heard the same thing. I'm a small one-man shop and really don't want to upgrade. Plus, I just love these printers. If the aftermarket consumables dry up I guess I will be forced to do so if I want to stay in business. I just hope the dampers, wipers, and...

  5. Question Shapeoko benchtop CNC. Anyone else using this?

    Amazing work. I just got my Shapeoko XXL setup. I'd love to know more about your bits, speeds, and feeds for PVC and acrylic. Also, where are you getting the PVC and acrylic? I'm new to CNC as well but have been playing around and learning the included software and an older version Aspire, 8.0...

  8. I love my SP-300v

    Phototec, I've replaced heads in as little as a year and as long as 5 years. I don't know why they go out specifically other than head strikes. John
  9. I love my SP-300v

    I don't have a high production shop so my SP300V and SP540V do the job well. They are workhorses and I can do all the maintenance as well as changing heads, cables, etc so it saves my small business a lot of money. John

  12. Need Help Roland SP300V Lost Black and Cyan after changing Cap Top

    Are you using Roland parts? If not, I'd guess a bad captop. I tried to save a few bucks and purchased 4 aftermarket captops awhile back and all 4 failed right away. I went with Roland and everything was back to perfect. John

  17. 5k budget, Looking at used printers, any recomendations?

    I have an SP300V and an SP540V and I love them both. I do all my own maintenance and head replacements so the cost stays lower for me as I'm not a large production shop. They are workhorses but much slower at printing then the newer models. Print/ cut accuracy is not as good on the SP540V...
  18. Not getting solid black?

    If you have the VesaWorks color library installed in Illustrator use spot color BK21A. It gives me consistent blacks every time. John
  19. Need Help Removing Window Perf Vinyl

    Plenty of heat is used on automotive glass when window tinting to shape the film to the glass. I think you will be fine in this instance with a heat gun and only use enough heat to get the vinyl to release. John
  20. Oralite 5600 Reflective Vinyl - Has anybody ever tried wet applying?

    I dry apply most these days if it's not too large of a graphic or stripe, but I've wet-applied many different reflective materials for over 24 years with no issues. I think a lot is in the application method, using a good flat squeegee, and the solution you use. I was also a professional window...
