  1. What is Flexi Sign & Print 12 worth?

    Mutoh edition only runs Mutoh printers. Since I think every Mutoh printer ships with Mutoh Edition Flexi, there's probably not much demand for that package. It could be used as an upgrade discount I suppose. Flexi should give some credit for that towards a full version of Flexi, but since...
  2. Need Help Roland XC-540 - 3 of 6 print heads not printing at all

    Unfortunately, this level of maintenance and usage doesn't cut it. You've got one head in each group printing, so you don't have blown fuses. If you haven't been messing with cables, or ink lines or anything physically, then you probably just have clogged heads. I would start with replacing...
  3. Question about Service note VG-540

    0380 is a damper failure to fill error. 0080 refers to the right channel of head 4. First I would make sure that you have plenty of ink in Ink slot 5 which feeds the right side of head 4. If you have plenty of ink, in my experience, it could be a problem with the sensor that reads the empty...
  4. Need Help Roland SP-540i - Doesn't want to Contour Cut correctly.....

    The tip of your blade is broken off. Also, there should be a cap on the cutting end of the blade holder with a hole in to limit the amount of blade exposed. That's missing. Again, not really the main problem here, but definitely a problem. Get a new blade and blade holder.
  5. TR2 Ink Conversion for Roland Printers

    Hey All, The conversion isn't all that traumatic if done by the book. We've had several customers do it with little help from us. You have to update to the latest TR firmware first, then update to the earliest TR2 firmware before updating to later versions of it. Yes, you will end up loosing...
  6. Die Cut Stickers on Roland VG 540?

    I think he's looking to do perf cut, not just print/cut. Check out this list.
  7. Suggestions Gerber FX chirping

    OK. Have you lubricated the Edge lately? Gerber has a document on how to properly lubricate the Z axis screw, which this likely is. It's kind of a PITA to get to, but I think it should help you. I think you'll have to create an account to get there, but here's the link to the document.
  8. Puzzled by recent plasticizer migration

    That I can't tell you. The machines ship with the standard roller installed - this is the roller that sits right above the vinyl roll. You have to swap it out for the foam roller (that absorbs the plasticizer.) I've not had any customers tell me that it works or doesn't. Sorry.
  9. Puzzled by recent plasticizer migration

    Yeah. HP addressed that concern in the 500 series with a roller designed to remove plasticizer from the surface of the media as it goes in to the printer.
  10. Print and Cut Off

    It is standard, but some are the clear disk like you mentioned and some are enclosed in a device that sits on the back end of the feed motor.
  11. Need Help Vp540 missing Long Clear Plexi cover in front - does this affect dry times?

    The VP was actually produced for a while without the front cover. I thought it was great. Unfortunately, some people couldn't keep their fingers out of the print zone while the printer was working, so Roland had to put it back on. It really won't help with drying though. Air circulation as...
  12. Need Help Hi Guys looking for help cutting vinyl

    Ahh... A true signmaker at heart. Always racing to the bottom? :dog42:
  13. ONYX THRIVE19

    You may still have issues with your system. Does your hardware check out? Are you using a local hard drive for your files or a Network drive. Make sure everything is stored locally on the RIP computer. Good Luck
  14. Need Help Summa Cutter Contol Issue with S160T

    You should be able to have Production Manager open as long as it's barcode server is not running. Turn it off in Flexi and give it a try. Good Luck
  15. Need Help Versa Works

    Yes. It should run both. You'll probably need to run upgrades after you install from the disk though. Depending on the version that came with your SP, it may not have drivers for the XC. Good Luck
  16. Puzzled by recent plasticizer migration

    Latex seems to show it up more prominently, but it also affects solvent prints. I've got no experience with it on a UV printer, but I suspect it may affect that ink as well.
  17. VP-540i wired misting over spray problem

    That's pretty classic static electricity problem. You develop a charge as the vinyl peels off the roll and then you get another charge as the vinyl rolls under the pinch wheels. This can either attract or repel ink from where it's being directed from the jets. Also, different medias generate...
  18. Suggestions SUMMA T120

    The T120 is a vinyl cutter. You'd need a router to do that. I'm betting someone on here knows of a vendor for those things or a merchant member on here that can make whatever you want, but it's not something I would recommend a plotter for. Good Luck
  19. Big rolls of material cutting, 7.5" in diameter Summa S2-T75

    :) We all like happy endings :)
  20. Question Weird spots in black print...

    Andy, (with all due respect, because I like most of what you have to say) while it may work for you, once you change your ink limits, you've thrown out any calibration that has happened after that point, including linearization, and ICC profiles. So if ink density is your only consideration...
