    Keep in mind, my issue isn't bleeding on the wood. The issue is ink seepage accumulating on the bottom of the white head during printing and eventually covering up enough nozzles to cause banding. And only on the white head. The printer was installed 3 weeks ago. I'm all over the dealer about...

  16. Roland SG-540 Nozzle check

    Possibly. Could be a defective cap top. Or a bad head. My suggestion is to get the S/N of the printer (so you know the printhead cost), research the current market for this model, deduct the cost of a new head, dampers and installation and make them an offer based on that.
  17. Roland SG-540 Nozzle check

    If you find it for $500, I'm betting it ships from Malaysia or Indonesia, meaning send your money and wait and wait and wait and wait and realize you got ripped off. The cheapest I find the head is for around $770 from Digiprint-Supplies. Also there are 2 variants, depending upon your serial...
