    I have seen customers adding a felt to the guide against scratching.
  2. Question Roland XF-640 vs Roland EJ-640

    The main difference is the ink type and bulk ink system. XF's were discontinued because of banding problems. (At least in Europe) Don't buy XF's, if you need bandingfree quality. The EJ's have some enhancements to remedy these problems. We converted a EJ to a sublimation bulk ink system and the...
  3. problems sending prints to Roland SG-300 True Vis coming out short using Versa Works

    Update to latest Versaworks and use length correction. This is normal printer behaviour.
  4. SP300 Head replacement...fill first with flushing fluid?

    Hello After replacing hundreds of heads professionally, no. Mimaki required to flush, Roland didn't. I sometimes forgot it with Mimakis, they always worked anyway.
  5. SP 300 print problem

    There is a whole band of nozzles missing an a lot of misfiring. You can try to clean, soak and flush. But after many wasted hours, the head needs replacement. (If you need a decent quality output with sharp text and without ink spraying)
  6. Versaworks "A connection with the server could not be established"

    VW 6.16.1 is the latest and greatest version. It came out last week.

  8. CG160 FXII - How to stop it from scrolling to the front on a roll - FineCut software

    RTFM... when you set up a new medium, you can select different ways. (Arrow key) One of them is "width only"
  9. Help. Signlab print and cut has stopped working.

    I guess there is... You probably lost the setting in the reinstallation process. Without knowing your cutter type, it's hard to tell. For the cutters I know, it's a cutter setting.
  10. Roland VP 540 half blue printing

    Replace the cyan dampers, then the printhead... (you can cross switch the two dampers and see what happens first,) When you need good quality, black could need a new head too.
  11. VS-540 Not Printing White Again

    All the VS and VSi have recirculating pumps on channel 1 and 8.
  12. Roland rf 640 from 4 to 8 color conversion

    No Bingo!!! you will need to cut and close the connections between the cartridge outlets in the back of the machine. Just open the cover behind the cartridges. There have been black stoppers delivered with the printer. When I remember correctly, Versaworks doesn't support this configuration...
  13. Bn-20 Nozzle

    As I mentioned before. Your printhead needs replacement. Your deflected nozzles in black won't go away with soaking. It may even get worse.

    Don't use a configuration with white ink...
  16. VS-540 Not Printing White Again

    Hi The cleaning pump is easily replaced. On the cleaning side, there is only one pump for all colors. The recirculation pumps are a pain to replace and there are two of them sharing one motor. These are located in the box under the cartridges.
  17. VS-540 Not Printing White Again

    Hi Since the VS is a old printer, I'd take a look at the pumps. I'm assuming the cap top closes air tight... I had cases where the cleaning pump was sucking ink, when I observed a cleaning cycle. But it was not enough, to keep the white going. After I replaced the pump, everything was ok...
  18. HP 365 Latex Printer Screeching Sound From Carriage Movement While Printing

    Put a little grease on the upper side of the plastic strip on the lower right side of the maintenance cartridge.
  19. SP 540V Cutting Issue

    You will probably have to replace the outer pinch rollers (complete with the black part holding the rollers) Look closely at the black parts, where the sit on the actuating rod. They tend to get cracks and don't have the correct spring loaded pressure anymore.
  20. 0.0" width sp300v

    This sounds like your flatcable going to the toolcarriage needs replacement.
