Check for any air in the lines. It looks like you have an ink flow issue. If one of the dampers didn't get put on quite tight enough of there is a defect causing a small amount of air to get in the system, it will cause this type of banding.

The way the ink levels are read on a Roland is just a guess so you never know 100% how much is left. There is no sensor that reads the levels only if it is empty. It will give you a warning first however that the ink is getting low just before it is empty. the tab they are referencing is the...

Did you run the head slant adjustment? That is one alignment most people miss.

This offer is available while supplies last and we only have 1 bundle available. The Mimaki CJV150-75 is brand new and in the box. The laminator is band new but has been removed from the box as a demo unit but never actually used. This setup is great for anyone wanting a turnkey decal solution...

I have a customer who did a similar install and used Oracal 3641 which is a low cost 3 year vinyl and they had good success. They were going on dry wall though so I am not 100% sure how plaster will affect the install. Arlon DPF4500GLX is a higher quality vinyl and adhesive than the 3641 so I...

This link will bring you to the official Mimaki maintenance procedures for that machine. I'm not the guy for back up batteries though. As you probably already know it's a 220V system so don't mix that up!

Hurry you only have 5 seconds!

When you send the file from Corel to the hot folder do you use the FineCut software? If not, that's the issue. The hot folder doesn't take pure EPS files. It needs the FineCut plug-in to convert it to a Mimaki file and then sends it. As far as the favorites go, the buttons can be a little...

Exactly. The driving force for the kiosk is not that the employees want more money, it's that McDonalds doesn't want employees. They have been developing them for years way before the $15/hr push.

What interface are you using to connect the plotter to the computer? Basically it just can't connect to the plotter. Most likely just a setting that needs to be changed.

It all depends on the profile. Some profiles have locked in settings and some don't. Did you import the profiles from your old software or just download the new ones from Flexi?

About 14 years ago I was in college and worked at a brand new start up sign shop. They started me at $8 per hour but then quickly upped it to $12 per hour once they saw I could do the job. I would agree with the above $15/ per hour as a base for someone with not a lot of experience yet.

I can't give out Roland service manuals but search Signs101 and you will find someone who can. In the manual it will walk you through the process.

See you tomorrow!

The 0105 error code means the tool carriage is having trouble connecting to the printer carriage. I would run the limit position initialization first.

A couple hangers and a bed sheet will do the trick but if you want to buy an 8600 try finding a local dealer. They should be able to sell it to you.

Your maintenance station is probably just bad. At 2.5 years you are way over due for one.

Looks like you have a bunch of cross contamination going on. When was the last time you changed your maintenance station?

My first impression is that the material is not compatible with the ink. I have seen that effect when printing solvent on water based material.

Mojave Sign Ad might be what you are looking for. It's a vinyl that is made specifically for walls and windows and is repositionable. It's more of a satin finish and is a little thicker so it's easier to apply. I don't know what about Phototex makes it able to print edge to edge but Sign Ad does...
