How often do you have to replace the heads? My 2008 SP540V worked great and then in March of 2017 the blue head went out (spraying a blue mist on the edges of text) and the local tech wanted $1200 to replace it, so I decided to replace the head myself and purchased one from SolventInkJet.com...

Does anyone know this font? The "5" has a unique tail. Thanks for any help or suggestions

Sounds like your printhead is clogged from not using the printer, also the cap tops should be changed every 6 months to 12 months, the rubber dries out and then the cap top doesn't make a good seal and that allows the print head to dry out. You can try a head soak, sometimes that will bring the...

I am having problems with the PRINT CUT MARKS on my Roland SP540V printer. The front right PRINT CUT MARK is printing with lots of banding the other mark on the left only has a few lines in it. What is causing this? Any ideas? The print looks ok.

Can anyone open a DWG file for me and convert it to a vector drawing (eps)? I tried to use a FREE online converter, but the downloaded file only opens as a bitmap file. The file is the vehicle outline template for the new 2019 Jeep Wrangler Jl. Let me know if you can help me out, thanks in...

When I have to ship something like what you need to ship, I go to Home Depot and purchase the 8 in. x 48 in. Concrete Form Tube for shipping ($10.30). Then roll-up the 47" print with application tape very loosely just small enough to git it inside the 8" dia. cardboard tube. I also place the end...

Well, do you mind telling others how you resolved the (you could help others as you were helped)? Thanks

C5, you sound pretty knowledgeable about printers, I have a general question about the DX4 print head in an SP540V printer. Last year I was getting a CYAN mist overspray and was told to replace the BLK/CYAN printhead which I did and it fixed the problem and everything has been good and the...

Ues Gin, CYAN slot #2, went I insert the cartridge the system does NOT see it like the chip is bad?

WOW, you have done a lot of work on your own. I'm like you and changed out my own blk/cyan printhead last year when it was spaying a mist outside of the text. I have never had or heard of cross contamination and have NO idea what would cause that situation or how to fix it. You say it is...

I usually use 440 cartridges in my Roland SP540V printer, however, I have a new 220 cyan cartridge that will not get recognized when I install it in the printer. So I was thinking is it possible to suck the ink out of the cartridge with a syringe and add that ink into another cyan cartridge that...

Jim, have you changed the CAP TOPS before? They are the part that makes contact with the head and keeps them from drying out. I have the SP540V (big brother to the SP300V) and have had it since 2008 and the CAP TOPS need to be replaced every 6 months to a year max because the rubber seal gets...

You guys are AMAZING, I took the blade holder apart to install a new blade and there was a small piece of vinyl inside, I guess it was keeping the cutting blade from turning. Anyway thanks to all how came to my rescue. This could help others who experiance the same issue. I was using a 45°...

What would cause these bad cuts on a Graphtec CE6000-60? When the cutter cuts around the sharp corners, it is lifting up the 751 vinyl. I have slowed the cutting down and it's still doing it. Has anybody seen this before and what did you do to correct it? Thanks in advance.

A Big THANK YOU, this video showed the exact problem I was having and how to fix it. I have experienced this problem for many years, I was using a later version of PDF, you have to use an older version.

See the video posted by SignMeUpGraphics below, it shows the issue and most importantly how to resolve it. When converting the Illustrator file to PDF, you have to select a specific type of PDF (1.3) and make sure to unselect "Convert All Strokes To Cutlines". I know there should be a way to...

Gino, the job is to be laminated, so I have to take it out of the printer and let it out-gas 254 hours, print other jobs and then the next day after laminating put it back in the printer/cuter, let it find the registrations marks and contour cut. It works fine for everything except any PDF which...

Well, what did the tech do to fix your problem? Thanks

Is there a trick to make the CutContour show up when printing a gradient in a PDF with VersaWorks? When I load the file in VersWorks for my Roland SP540V, the CutContour does NOT show up. The gradient was made in Illustrator, how do you the CutContour show up and work? Do you have to do...

I have a brand new Roland EOM cyan Ink cartridge (220ml) and the printer would not recognize it. I tried cleaning the gold color contacts, but it still would NOT work. I inserted a different Cyan ink cartridge and it works fine. So, my question is, has anyone else dealt with this issue before...
