I use Colorip and it works fine. I also purchased a used SP-300 and it came with Colorip and once I learned how to use it I have had no problems with it. My printer also came with VersaWorks software but I could not get it to work but the former owner told me that he had it working. I read a...

Rain-X I met a guy one day at a car show and we got talking and it turns out his grandfather had started the Rain-X company years ago. He told me the complete story of Rain-X and when I asked him what was in the product he did not really want to say to much but he did tell me how is...

Coreldraw I have been using version 12 for about 5 years and I have sent hundreds of eps files to my Roland SP-300 which uses ColorRip with no problems at all. I also have VersaWorks but have never uesed it because ColorRip works just fine for me. I also have CorelDraw X-5 but I am so used...

Interesed in purchasing the a new overlay for the menu area. This is the part that covers the keys for test print, cleaning, test cut and all the other menu items. I would rather purchase one instead of trying to make one. Anyone know of a supplier that might carry this item...

What do you call the plastic inserts that go into the ends of the rolls of vinyl to keep it centered on the rollers. Best place to ether purchase or do you make them? Thanks Jim

The media when placed directly under the pinch rollers appear to move about 1/8" inch when printing but once I look at the finish product the cut contour line around the object looks fine. Should the media be tracking straight or does it move a little as it pass under the pinch rollers. The...

I have a Roland SP-300 that was working perfect until I installed a new roll of vinyle. It seems like the material is moving just a little and I am not sure if it's time for some new pinch rollers or what. When I contour cut a circle for example the cut is not a perfect round circle but a...

Alex Galvez I also purchased a book on CorelDraw when I started and it was very helpful but once someone told me about the video tutorials that Alex Galvez posted on U-Tube my learning really got kicked into high gear. I am not sure how many of his tutorials are still posted on U-Tube because...

Best Advice Buy a used copy of Corel 12 off ebay. It is a very functional version. I bet you could pick up a copy for 10 or 15 bucks. Listen to this advice because he is RIGHT!!!!!!! Corel 12 is very inexpensive and once you get used to it you will wonder how you ever lived before having it...

Corel X-5 Maybe it's just me but so far X-5 appears to work fine. I have now been using it for about one month with no problems so far!!! I had used Corel version 12 for a number of years also with no real problems either. Jim Hill

Thanks for the advice. Please explain just what these materials are. polypro material and face mount adhesive? Should my supply house have these materials or do I need to order them somewhere else? Thanks Jim

I made some stickers for a customer for the outside of his business windows for a car show. Now he has asked me to make some more but he wants them to be placed on the inside of the windows this time. I am using a Roland Versacamm but have never done this. Any help you can offer would be...

Coreldraw products. Not sure right now if I would purchase X-5 until they get some bugs fixed. Some people seem to have no problems but others are reporting that their needs to be some tweaking done. X-4 seems fine along with X-3 Jim

Artbot You wrote the following, it can be called head flush, flushing liquid, flushing solution.... it goes on and on. it's just butyl carbitol or cellosolve or a blend (they are basically the same thing one slower drying (available at sherwin williams, and in solvent antifreeze). with a cut...

What is the name of the cleaning fluid used when cleaning with a swab around the printhead area of a Roland Versacamm? Is there more then one product used or do most Roland users all use the exact same cleaning product? Names of dealers with good prices on cleaning supplies would also be a...

I had a feeling the lenth of the cable could be trouble. I may just leave the cable right where it is since it prints great with no probelms at all right now. I was only going to try either a 6 or 8 cable but maybe I should just leave it alone. Thanks Jim

I have my SP-300 running fine but I would like to get a longer USB cable and was wondering if I can purchase any USB to printer cable? The cable that came with the printer is about four feet long and I would like to get a either a six or eight foot cable. Jim Hill

Difference is software for ripping and speed. I believe the SP-300 uses ColorRip software and the SP-300I uses Versaworks software. You can upgrade the SP-300 with a key from Roland but the costs to do so are around $900.00 bucks. I use my SP-300 with ColorRip with no problems at all and I...
