When I lower the lever the machine runs the media out to the eye sensor which is about 5". It starts there. My SP-300 is about half that.

So after I have loaded it, lowered the lever and let it see the electric eye, you back it up to the vacuum strip and tell it to start there? Is this a problem when you put it back through to contour cut?

Right but I want it as a default setting on the printer so I don't need to set this every time I print something. There is now 5" on the front end and it will probably be at least that on the back end. Who thought up that brilliant idea?

You can see the front sensor, it's quite a bit further away from the cut strip. As much as we're saving on ink we're loosing on media.

Really? 2 1/2" more waste on this new machine compared to the SP (see pics). Can I drill out another hole for the sensor? What a waste!

First we now have a new SG-300 using the VersaWorks Dual. So far so good, but - 1) there are no profiles available and the four that came with the machine really aren't enough, where can I find the "stock set" like what came with VW? 2) when the sheet cuts and I feed it back through to...

Went with the SG mainly for price. Not so concerned with the new technology as our first SP we bought "new" and have had good results with Roland stuff.

I've had that issue here but I run the PC on Mac via Parallels. In the past it does get confused sometimes and I have to shut everything off; printer, computers, everything and restart. Beyond that, my Mac's hard drive developed a problem and that caused a big slowdown with everything including...

Looking at purchasing a printer mainly to do labels and our smaller sized stuff. We already have a Roland large format printer and large laminator. We still have our 30" laminator. Apparently the SG model uses the 500ml bags which you save about 20% vs buying 2x220ml cartridges for the VSi...

We started with a Roland VP-300 and now have a Roland SP-540. We use 48" as my wife's arms long enough to even use 54" vinyl. Most of our wrap panels are obviously less than 48" and we use 30" for everything else. We have a Seal laminator. We got the Roland because it prints and cuts. I think...

We been ordering a few rolls a month, or more sometimes, 48" 3M ij180CV3. We try to have enough on hand but sometimes we need to get it in a less than two days. My question is - Is 48" an odd size and not something they stock? Am I the only one using 48" here in Maine or the Northeast? Just...

Thanks for the replies! I think we may have rushed that one through a little.I think we gave it an overnight.rob more over saturation than anything; a lot of red, and the black I use in 100% Pantone black. As far as the laminator, we have a Seal and the pressure is what it is. I mean you crank...

We've been getting 3M-IJ180Cv-3 10 gloss and using Oraguard 290 cast. So far we've had pretty good luck installing this combination. We recently tried a new rolland for some reason as we installed a panel the edges wanted curl in or up or whatever. It seemed like we were spending a good deal of...

Easy upgrade to 8GB of ram so I'll do that eventually.

I'm having this same issue. Did you get it fixed?

Ah, great to know - well, not so great actually.

Right. So I'll wait and see. Windows 7 still updating so hopfully it will finish sometime tonight... I realize it shares resources but 1 app - really? Plus all's it's going to handle is fonts and small jpegs - no printing to a dig machine or anything. I was watching the Activity Monitor on the...

This older machine with Parallels/VersWorks is a 17" MacBook Pro Running, 10.10.5 Yosemite, 2.8 GHz, Core 2 Duo, 8 GB 1067 MHz DDR3, etc. New machine is: 13" MacBook Pro, running 10.11.1 El Capitan, 2.5 GHz Core i5, 4 GB 1600 MHz DDR3 (bought new at Apple store only because it still has USB...

This whole install of Parallels/Windows 7 was initiated by the install of the latest Mac OS upgrade which went quickly and so far the updates have been short - nothing like this,; because I prefer the Mac OS stability, ease of use and an OS that I don't have to worry about or tinker with i.e...

Colordyne 1600C roll label printer. Any feedback on this machine?
