    OK cutting is working fine. Looking in the service menu Sensor check FRSHOCPLWcw ***** ***** What is C???
  2. after linear bearing replaced I get error 0050 and 0040

    OK thank you will try that right now. The Roland tech was just here for 5 minutes and says the rail is the problem and that I should have bought the matched set for $900.00 - this cost me $114.10 The service manual refers to the making sure the servo motor has no backlash when doing a new...
  3. after linear bearing replaced I get error 0050 and 0040

    There is no belt on the sp-300, but if you are referring to the cable, I have no way to really accurately check the tension as I do not own the precious Roland wire tension gauge. The Roland tech didnt have any in stock to sell me and would not rent it to me. :( He did let me examine it so I...
  4. after linear bearing replaced I get error 0050 and 0040

    The scan motor is brand new and has only about 400 hours on it. It was replaced on 08/2012 I thought about doing a cut only, but maybe the weight of the print head carriage is what is causing the "voltage spike" or heavy load on the motor. If I ran the cutter by itself that would not indicate...
  5. after linear bearing replaced I get error 0050 and 0040

    It really doesn't seem matter where the carriage is at. It seems that any time the carriage is moved fast, the error occurs. Usually thats when the printer IS NOT printing but actually moving to print position or to home (after print) from other side of printer. I have checked and rechecked and...
  6. Sp300i sometimes doesn't cut

    How can you tell if you have the latest version of firmware?
  7. after linear bearing replaced I get error 0050 and 0040

    There are no rough spots. There were before I changed the bearings, but not now. Its as smooth as new now. I realize that Roland sells the entire rail and three bearings together only. They say its a matched set. I really could not afford the $900.00 for the rail and bearings. Of course...
  8. after linear bearing replaced I get error 0050 and 0040

    I cleaned the encoder "eye" with alcohol and that worked once....then back to error.. I did manage to be able to run linear encoder and calibration before the error though... I may have damaged the "eye" during my reassembly or maybe even the encoder strip. I dont see any damage at all.
  9. after linear bearing replaced I get error 0050 and 0040

    Ok fist let me start by stating the facts here. Printer has been working fine with the occasional motor error due to carriage bearings going bad. 08/2012 replaced tool linear bearing, encoder strip and scan motor (roland tech installed motor) I replaced the carriage linear bearings myself...

  13. Wrapping a small freezer what should I charge?

    An ice cream vendor came to me with a small freezer that he wants graphics on. Outside image area is about 20 sf. I will be doing the design for him and installing. I am going to use oracal rapid air vinyl. Not wrap material but still good for this type of thing as there arent really any complex...

  16. How to get a c-45 license

    My point was that personal attacks to provoke someone are not needed. That was the whole point. I do apologize if I offended her or him. Hmm.....I went back and looked at all my posts that I have made and the responses I got. I hate to admit it but, Gino has actually had alot of good advice...
  17. How to get a c-45 license

    Thanks man! :) yes I have taken all this into consideration. I dont want to just jump into anything, so I was actually looking to intern somewhere possibly. I dont think most shops would be open to that though. Unless I worked for them exclusively for a few years. I am making too much on my own...
