  2. Color management Don’t laugh

    I would get a demo version of Caldera either from Mike at correctcolor.org or get it from Caldera directly. At Caldera they will say its something like a 14 day demo but you can get this extended multiple times if need be to test the software. I would also have Flexi 12 cloud which is about $50...
  3. Color management Don’t laugh

    If you are asking that question which is completely fine and you are rolling with those units it shouldn't be anything to drop a couple grand and have someone come out and profile your machines and teach you how to do your own profiling properly. I suggest contacting Mike at correctcolor.org...
  4. Ink Issue ! Switched to STS

    Your only option is push solvent solution through the M head channel and if that doesn't work just buy a new head, dampers, wiper and cap top. Another last resort to clear channels without taking anything apart is get some bone dry empty cartridges and stick them in every slot but the clogged...
  5. Why with these horrible pop ups.

    I don't know if this helps anyone but I am running firefox on the desktop and safari on mobile and I have no ads besides the normal side top or bottom.
  6. Ink Issue ! Switched to STS

    Don't they say plug and play with OEM not plug and play with Jetbest? It's always best to flush the line and change the damper if you are jumping from aftermarket to aftermarket.
  7. Roland Still Not Printing Lc & LM

    Dave is good to go if you are connected with him I would trust him. We have done business with him in the form of selling machines but never had him repair anything cause I handle it. Sign-in-china is a good source also. I would almost attempt to repair the board first if Dave will do it for you...
  8. Roland Still Not Printing Lc & LM

    Call your roland dealer and ask for head fuses. However honestly we had this issue not be resolved by head fuses and the only thing that would fix it was a new head board. Pull the power on that printer now. Your black can cause problems like that. You can also check sign-in-china.com if you...

    Good job!! When it's up and running print the same job you ran on the latex machines, stick both jobs to your wall for customers to see the difference. Good luck with everything!!
  10. Roland Still Not Printing Lc & LM

    Take head board and get removable fuse connector added to it. This shouldn't be a carriage board issue. This usually is a headboard issue and these head boards originally did not have replaceable fuses but you can and need to change that. Also make sure to use fuses from Roland we had some...

    That's great you followed up a 5yr thread, I am impressed!!
  12. Printer choice

    Mike from correctcolor.org told us the new hp's were canned and didn't offer the full profiling control that the solvent printers do. A lot of people are ok with that but the HP's from how it was explained to us was there are limitations.
  13. Printer choice

    Agree %1000. Out gassing on a solvent printer is a toothless tiger if you add a cheap external heater that dries the ink immediately which is better than sitting around waiting for it to happen on it's own.
  14. 5k budget, Looking at used printers, any recomendations?

    Call Rhonda towards the end of the month 27 or so and see if that changes. They never come down on a quote real fast unless looking for multiple machines. That $7k is the cheapest 54inch eco solvent printer at the moment right now.
  15. 5k budget, Looking at used printers, any recomendations?

    Bet they would take $6k Call and ask for Rhonda if she still works there. This is a brand new 54in mutoh for $7k if you go the Mutoh route. Don't accept their first retail priced quote ever. https://www.signwarehouse.com/p/prismjet-vj-54-large-format-color-printer-valuprint-package
  16. How to return Roland Printer

    60 days right? Hopefully you choose the Epson S80600 you will love it if you feel it fits your needs. This is a pretty interesting article about customer service in Japan. Too bad we don't get extended this treatment...
  17. Question Why Doesn't Roland Offer the VersaEXPRESS RF-640 8 Color(CcMmYKkRGO) in the US?

    We saw this too on another post here. My guess would be damage control if something went wrong with the new inks so the issues would be isolated before a full release. The biggest flaw with that head design is certain colors will always clog before others and when you have 1 cap top to the...

  19. How to return Roland Printer

    I am a huge supporter of the older rolands with DX4 heads and really feel they are worth maintaining even when expensive boards go bad. I have personally seen a room full of Roland soljet machines all with over 30,000-40,000 print hours on them humming away like clockwork. The machines were...
  20. Printer recommendation. Not VG540

    Johnny Best is right. The Mimaki and Mutohs are running old head technology which has provided a lot of issues for users especially in the form of unequal pressure inside the heads. Go look at the face of the print head on the S40,60,80 and you will see each color is segregated like the old...
