Even a manufacturer of physical goods can decide to stop providing you with spare parts (or, what is common too, to make it more and more expensive so that a repair is no longer worth it). Or a company who manufacture or sold that physical good to you could decide to not support it anymore. So...

I don‘t understand the problem. When buying a car, a printer or cutter, a stove or fridge for the kitchen, a TV or any other hardware, we all know that the time will come that it breaks down and needs repair or replacement ... but we don‘t want to accept that with software? One time, one of...

You can't replace the sponges only, this is a complete unit named capping station. But not shure if it is still available for the Rockhopper I.

You can check failing nozzles in the service report of the printer (tab „support“ at the EWS, link „Service-Support“). If there is a print head which counts failing nozzles from „1“ continuously (1 2 3 4 5 and so on), replace that head. A friend of mine have set a new printhead 2 days ago which...

Will not work. Could be that they fit mechanically, but wont be recognized as valid ink. Different product numbers. Who in the world will buy a Latex 115 for print volumes where the 3-Liter-Ink boxes of the 570 makes sense?

The name at Rolands is „powerful cleaning“. „Strong“ is Mutoh :-) :-)

When pull off the dampers, take care not to press on the side with the transparent film ... than it could happen that you press ink out of the damper. Pull it as vertical as possible ... the little connectors at the manifold of the head likes to break if put tension on them (doesn't matter if...

For creating an ICC-Profile, the latex uses an integrated spectrophotometer. That the profiles are printer based is a specialty of the HP Latex in the signmaking industry, for regular halftone printers the profiles are created in the RIP (or for the RIP with a separate software) with a...

Perhaps a problem with the internal Spectro? Would give calibration in the RIP with an external Spectro a try.

Look sometimes at the task manager of your installation. there are permanently a bunch of tasks running parallel on your computer. And your computer consists of a lot of different components with their specific drivers. Sometimes these softwares, specially these ones who drives proprietary...

Todays software is very complex. PC- and OS-configurations are very diverse. Sometimes you release a software service pack, and 2 days later a OS-Service Pack or an upgrade of a security software crashes it. This happens to companies like SAi the same way as to companies like Microsoft, Adobe...

One year when using standard eco solvent ink, 6 months for mild solvents, as far as I know.

Very low temperatures are a problem for inkjet printers. But most of the time, when not printing for a longer period, and after that no cleaning take effect, it is mostly a capping worn out. Your Nozzle Check looks like that you use a Mutoh? How old is your maintenance station?

With an SC540, you need to start the marker reading with the butten AUTO ALIGN on the keyboard. Press the butten, move the knife holder over the first marker and press enter.

Onyx defaults to hold. Sometimes customers have jobs out of years in their onyx printer queue which occupy a lot of disc space (saw one time an onyx folder of 300GB), and onyx needs minutes to boot up. With Flexi it is the same problem, a lot of jobs in the queue makes the production manager...

There is a forum like Signs101 in Germany ( in german language) for professionals, and they did a survey a few weeks ago which plotters are in use day by day at the sign shops. 121 Members have voted, and the results are: Summa 54% Mimaki 24% Graphtec 12% Roland 4% GCC 1% Others 5% If...

Be aware of the influence of light to printed colours. Artificial light very often let grey show up reddish. Look if the colour deviation to red is still there if looking at your print under daylight. When the printer does a calibration, it will calibrate the colours to a maximum color accuracy...

Have installed it and like it. But we do not have a production, we are just dealers. But of course we have used it for test printing and cutting. I would suggest a clean install. Important for us: improvements with Summa/HP Contour cutting (vary the size and the number of markers, support of...
