If you're using Flexi you can go into the printer options and select a single head to print with. It's in the same area where you choose the wave form. I've done it in Flexi but it might be doable in other RIPS as well.

I never saw a solvent or latex printer print a good white. UV is the solution.

Which fuses did you change? The one that is on the head circuit is located on the main board and is a very tiny ceramic fuse and not a big glass one. If you didn't check that fuse, that should be the issue.

Parts should be easy to find in for the time being. Roland has moved away from Epson based heads so at some point they will stop offering them. The good news is that it's not special to the Roland so you can pop any DX7 head whether it's from Epson directly or Mutoh/Mimaki. I wouldn't worry...

The spec is +/- 0.3% over the length of the print so for a 6 foot print you can be off by a little less than a quarter inch either way. If the cut alignments are done properly, the cut accuracy has a similar spec. Perf might give you some trouble as it's not smooth so there can be...

I found a bulb for 90% less from North Korea. Anyone had luck with these guys?

Awesome! Glad to help!

Don't delete the BAK file. It's the file with the defaults in it! You can also just copy what's in the BAK file and paste it in the mainwindow file. Or open the file in notepad and edit it how you like.

Close Rasterlink and then go to C:\Mijsuite\ENV\RL01\ and look for a file called, "Mainwindow" and delete it. Next time you open Rasterlink it will recreate the file using default values. Hope that helps!

Solventinkjet.com As I mentioned above, we don't stock a huge amount of Roland parts but many of the staples. If we can't get it for you we can recommend a true Roland dealer who can.

I've got the cables in stock here if you still need them. Roland locks down their tech and parts more than any other manufacturer so it's harder to stock them without being an official dealer.

That yellow streak is an electrical issue. Check your head cables for damaged, debris, ink splatter, corrosion etc. and replace as necessary. If the cable doesn't do the trick it's usually going to be the head itself. I would also clean the terminals with some 90% alcohol to make sure it's not...

I don't have any long term evidence to rely on yet but it seems similar to solvent. I believe the quoted outdoor life is 3 years.

Encoders do come with a film sometimes for sure. In my experience with the JV3 it's usually the sensor being bad that causes the heads not to fire at all. When you cleaned it, it may have become damaged in some way.

If you need Mutoh, Mimaki, or Roland parts we stock them here in Denver. Our techs, who are manufacturer trained and work in the field. will help you troubleshoot and consult on part installs for free.

I have installed 3 UCJV300 machines and my customers are running them hard. The main drawback of UV is when laminating, you might need heat assist to get the adhesive to lay down into the texture of the ink. Basically, you can feel UV ink sitting on top of the vinyl. Heat assist isn't as popular...

That looks pretty rough even if the profile is bad. Are you sure you are printing on the right side of the banner? It might be reverse wound which can be counter intuitive sometimes. Other than that I would turn up the heat and try using a regular vinyl profile like the 3M one rjssigns mentioned.

In this situation I would normally check the pressure adjustment to make sure it's in range, run an air purge, manually clean the cap tops, wiper, and head surface where the cap top seals, then run a nozzle wash. You have deflecting nozzles which means either the pressure isn't enough to...

Some aftermarket wipers are simply too stiff and get jammed on the wiper scraper. You just need to get OEM ones or softer aftermarket ones. The grinding is the motor slipping after the wiper gets caught.

Yes. This particular error is referring to the fuse on the CR board. That's the board that the other end of the head cables plug into. The fuses are small ceramic types so don't expect a big glass tube. Luckily they are user replaceable so hopefully that's the issue!
