Roland DX 5?
Roland for years stayed with the old DX 4 heads until the VS series. At that point they went to a DX 6 print head. This head will not work in a VJ 1204. I have the OEM Mutoh VJ heads on my site at $1950.00, www.solventinkjet.com, call us for more info at 800-328-1306. I think what...
low use
If it were my printer I would go back to sealed cartridges. The open refill type carts are going to give you more trouble than savings on a low use printer.
We have for sale a Roland Versacamm SP300i. This is a 2011 model 30" printer cutter. This unit was a lease return that has had very little use. Unit comes with Roland RIP software and all tech documents. New this printer lists for $13,995.00. We are selling it for $7995.00. Call 800-328-1306 for...
Mimaki
The CJV is a much newer product running a single DX5 print head. The older SC540 has six old style DX 4 print heads. The Mimaki will be faster, have an auto take up, easier to maintain (on board cleaning cartridge) The Roland is going to be much more expensive to repair than a newer Mimaki.

Few things
could be a leaky dampers, bad o rings, dirt on the bottom of the head. My guess is the capping station is bad. You only need a slight bit of ware on the rubber gasket and it will not seal to the head.
New inks
Doubt Roland has that much to do with it. Their new printers are using the Epson DX 6 heads (same as Epson GS6000) and Epson has had a nickle free ink for that printer for years. Epson regulates what inks go through Epson heads.
Jv 400 suv
Are you looking at the JV 400 latex or solvent. The prints I saw from the JV400 SUV were some of the best Mimaki prints I have seen. I like the idea of a solvent ink that is UV cured. They say the prints are 10 x more durable than their regular solvent inks and because it is UV cured...
I have one here in Colorado I need to move. It is 8 x 12 with the exterior heated air make up. It was new in 1995 and has been an expensive storage closet for the last 9 years. I'll send pictures if you are interested.
peck tool
In the past those boards came dumb, you need to flash the memory with the peck software to set parameters.
Shoot me your email and I'll send the tech manual
Bordeaux inks
Two possible issues, the overspray could be a head alignment issue. The ink starvation could be cap top or a problem with ink supply, are you using a bulk system.
Fuse
I would also suggest checking the fuse on the main board. Send me your email and I will get you the tech manual. We are just north of you and stock parts and inks for that printer

Mutoh has some great deals on the 1324 (54") right now. PM me and I can get you a quote. I think you will find that 54" material is much easier to come by and you will have a greater selection.
