  1. Graphtec CE2000-60 Inaccurate Cutting

    Have you changed your cutting strip? Have you changed your blade? Is the carriage solid on the rail or can you wiggle it forwards and backwards?
  2. Need Help Communications error

    Dixie, has this set up worked previously and now has a problem or did you just try to set this up and have never been able to plot to the Suma? Joe
  3. Getting error reading: Caridges seperated while printing on the Roland SolJet XC-540

    Sarah, try cleaning the encoder strip first. that error really means that the encoder from the motor and the encoder on the head carriage are reporting different info. Usually this is from a dirty or defective encoder strip. Good Luck
  4. Need Help Rasterlink 6 - cannot get gray color

    This is a lot like the post about getting good greys in Flexi. The best answer would be to get someone in who is competent at making profiles and get a customer profile for the media you're using on the printer your using with the ink set that you're using and the RIP that you're usin in the...
  5. XC540 sheet cut question/issue

    crny1 thanks for the promo ;) If replacing blade and limit position calibration won't fix it, then you probably need to rebuild the sheet cut mechanism or possibly just replace the spring. Good Luck
  6. How to properly apply a 10cm x 10cm vinyl sticker

    Some factors to consider - Will someone with experience be applying these? Experienced people can probably do this as described above. Inexperienced people would benefit from a thicker material - either application tape or laminate or thicker vinyl What vinyl will you use? - Cast would be...
  7. Versaworks Need help please

    If you have profile creation ability, you could mess with black generation settings, but really, you just need to have the printhead replaced and do it right.
  8. Vg 540 truevis question

    I'm sorry, but I can't hand out that info. But I'll be happy to help where I can. And yes, a head strike can cause that too. I'm glad you got it fixed. Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk
  9. VS540 cleaning issue

    That's normal. It's doing an environmental match - you had to do this manually on your SP. Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk
  10. Vg 540 truevis question

    0400 error means that there is a problem with the damper emptying within the expected time while cleaning. Most often it's due to dirty cap tops or nozzle plate. Clean both very well with swabs and fluid. The 0010 indicates that the problem is with head 3, left channel. If you haven't...
  11. roland xf-640 not measuring full length

    Vander, (and others) on Roland print only devices, the pinch wheel setup is similar to, say, a Mutoh- not moveable and relatively a solid row of wheels. The use am optical sensor on the carriage to measure the actual media. So typical problems with this system are (usually in this order in my...
  12. Where is the VP-540i encoder strip?

    On top of the Y rail above the bearing rail.. Looks like a dark gray strip of plastic. You shold be able to get it all just by opening the covers. You'll need to move the carriage out of the way to clean the strip behind it. Make sure that you only use Isopropyl Alcohol, not Roland (or any...
  13. Help! Onyx 11 RIP-Queue Keeps Crashing

    Go into your Onyx>Work>[Printer Name] folder and remove any files there. You could have a corrupt file locking things up. Also, check how much free space you have on your hard drive(s).
  14. What's decent monitor color-calibration device?

    If you're looking at just calibrating monitors, then i1 display pro or color munki will do the job, with the i1 being a higher end model. I've not heard of the Datacolor, so I can't address that. As Pauly said, profiling your printer is a necessary step if you want to start doing soft...
  15. Need Help Roland cutting out

    Generally we call the scan direction left to right - the direction the print carriage travels and the feed direction is front to back - the direction the vinyl travels. If it is off front to back (what I call the feed direction), then you should perform the feed calibration with laminated vinyl...
  16. not printing true black xc540

    what are your quality settings in Versaworks? Can you send a screenshot of that? They will have a much bigger impact on print quality than your Corel color settings.
  17. SP300V ink pad UNDER spit sponge?

    It's not too critical what you put down there to absorb the ink, but any Roland dealer can get you the "correct" sponge. The part number is 21545195. You'll want to get 6 of them to fill it up.

  20. Wanted Graphtec Pinch Roller

    You can optionally add another pinch roller on 30 inch Graphtec FC plotter, and set do this frequently for municipal sign shops that deal almost exclusively with reflective signs. But most sign shops do fine with just the 2 standard pinch wheels. Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk
