  1. Fellers = CheetahWrap

    I've been pulling my business away from Fellers over the last year. This is the nail in the coffin.
  2. Seiko ColorPainter M-64s vs. Roland XR-640

    I've never ran a Seiko, but I can tall you that my dealer who sells both Roland and Seiko tells me that Seiko is higher up the ladder towards industrial machinery, when compared to Roland. I initially wanted to update my Rolands with an XF, but after a few threads of bad XF reports, I'm going...
  3. SOLARIS ink for a Roland?

    I run Solaris in two Roland printers (liter bottles) here. I think I've been using it for four years now, no problems.
  4. Solvent print transfers for garments. Opinions please

    I run/ran T-Printz material myself. I agree with Mosh. Rubber on a shirt. Not viable for re-order business. Direct to garment is the solution my clients prefer.
  5. Roland xf 640 New printhead?

    If your bulk ink is hot swappable with oem. Run an OEM cart and see if you can clear this up.
  6. Roland xf 640 New printhead?

    This is a pressure issue. It will probably pass in a few days. Lower pressure on yellow channel.
  7. Roland xf 640 New printhead?

    Are you using OEM cartridge ink? If you're using bulk the pressure could be set too high. How is the nozzle test and printing? Are you just getting drips, or are you experiencing ghosting and drop out in the prints as well?
  8. Hello from Maine

    Hello back from Maine!
  9. New Shop Finally Ready To Show

    Gorgeous shop and a great commute distance!
  10. Wrap edges of your signs?

    I always wrap the edges of our signs here. Granted we paint/seal edges as needed first, then wrap.
  11. Color profiling: with or without laminate?

    You would want to laminate the color ramps as well to make sure you limit the ink channels properly too.
  12. gx 500 alignment tool?

    Is there a lot of slack in your motor cable? The alignment tool as I understand it, is for calibration of your own crop marks. I use cutstudio, so I've never needed it myself. When I have alignment issues, it's the because the material is walking the platen of my 500.
  13. Roland SJ745EX ProII Platen temperature/heater will not throttle

    I ordered my controller from http://www.instrumart.com/ They can help you get the exact controller. Then take your old controller apart and get the relay out of it. Order a replacement component and put it in. I can of course offer more information when needed. Just Pm me. I'm slammed at...
  14. New VS540i...issues with black cutting out

    Good to hear! Glad it was nothing major. Working out the idiosyncrasies of a new printer can be a PITA.
  15. Cut misalignment on XR-640

    Are you cutting rolls of sheets? I would recommend taking the piece you just printed and re-rolling it tightly onto a core. Re-load and feed it through the machine for cutting.
  16. Cut misalignment on XR-640

    I have never ran a print/cut machine. Currently I am running a 25,000 piece job on a stand alone Roland cutter. Everything is laminated and running on a gx-500. The trick to solid cuts for me is making sure the media is DEAD ON when feeding. The slightest walk and it's over. At most I...
  17. Roland SJ745EX ProII Platen temperature/heater will not throttle

    This has happened to both my Pro II's. The mechanical relay in the assembly is stuck. A new relay is 12.00 and six solder points. I have new spare on hand from Fuji for my printers, and I have rebuilt both of my controllers for next to nothing. They work perfect again.
  18. Proii v sj-745ex

    I have a 745 and a 645. I love these machines. They Must have the tall dampers for sure. It took me years to figure that one out. All the parts are available from third party suppliers if you know where to look. Fuji still makes the heat controller. It's about $225.00. roland wanted...
  19. DX4 Solvent heads needed

    I just placed the order with Jordan @ Solvent Inkjet. I'll keep everyone posted on the transaction. They have been great thus far!
  20. Roland Pro II with heater problem

    Fixed! Turns out there was a faulty wire doing to the servo board. The connector was faulty. I repaired it and booted right up.
