Don't stress about the overlap banding. That is a super simple fix. Have the Roland tech walk you through it. The real concern which you well know is the banding where there is an absence of ink. Don't let the Roland tech leave w/out that being fixed. When it does appear that he fixed...

it sounds to me like you are not getting banding. Are you seeing an "overlap" where the head passes over the already printed ink? that isn't banding that is a media feed issue which you can calibrate in the menu. Forgive me if you know this. Just checking. To me banding is not an...

that's awful. I'm really sorry to hear about your woes. Sounds a lot like my experience with my 745ex. When it hit the fan and the machine didn't work they just explained it away. Roland is a good company and they will take care of this. Roland customer service is good and they care...

yeah, it's called photo-tex.

did the 745 last week. writing up the gx 500 now.

look up head soaks tutorials on here. that should take care of it.

any photos. depending on how many passes I do on certain jobs. I will get starvation on the left side of the platen. Corrected by dampers or the ever painful new head. I've never had this problem from an encoding strip, but many times from starvation. If you stop the job mid print and...

totally fake. LOL that's a great idea of the extra lam strips.

Funny story. I was running some errands in town over the weekend and drove past a long time customers store front. I've done some work on a few box trucks and a small prius he has. Nice guy, but I've heard from a few people he has a really bad temper. I've dealt with him for years and have...

Welcome from Maine. By way of Sylvania, OH. Go Hens!!!!

wow. didn't know 11-10 bit the dust. good thing I went with solaris. They're a great co. Try them from now one. If 11-10 was compatible with OEM inks thank you can flush with OEM flush.

This happens to me every few months. I get a bad roll that sort of raises up off the platen and caused rubbing of the print heads. New roll always takes care of it. I had a heck of a time getting one of my vendors to replace the roll. they didn't believe that the roll was bad...

that's a driver related error. Or a motherboard hardware error. Since it started with 7 I would think that there is a driver error for your chipset or another motherboard based firmware.

no. not good. you'll NEVER see the printer. and if it does show up you'll have a pile of crap that won't even print. I've heard that if you're lucky enough to ever receive the printer, parts literally fall off them while they're running. they are not mimaki, rolands, etc.

this happened to me with a new head. You need to prime the head by putting syringe on the head manifold and squirting in cleaning fluid until it comes out the bottom of the head. You will then have a solid hydraulic flow from the cart to the head nozzles. This will do the trick. Also...

Greetings from Maine, by way of Sylvania, OH.

I buy a lot of things from Jorge @ solventinkonline He's a great guy and very helpful. I do not use his ink only because he's on the other side of the country from me. I use Solaris Ink for Roland via Fellers with outstanding results. For any replacement parts I use Jorge.

I have a roland. The heads are the same as yours. I used to use Triangle inks for years and then switched to Solaris from Fellers. They are AWESOME. ZERO problems. First 3rd party ink to be trouble free. I'm running from bulk tanks.

cool. looks like they're getting a lot of hits. I keep getting a 404 error. I will try again later today.

Great. I will do a write up after the holiday. Thanks for making this option available.
