  1. XC540 hours

    How do I find out the hours on my XC-540? I would tell but have no idea where to find the info.
  2. Greetings from Newbie in Texas

    Depending on the type of work you are doing you may or may not want to laminate your prints. Temporary yard signs - no, vehicle wrap and more permanent signs - yes. We laminate everything that is printed except for temp yard signs, i.e. golf outings. Seal & Royal Sovereign are both high...
  3. Greetings from Newbie in Texas

    :Welcome: from Illinois. You may want to look into getting a laminator as another piece of equipment.
  4. Trouble printing from X5 using a previous file made in X3 (color)

    I believe in X5 you can load in Versaworks color swatches. In Corel go to windows, color palettes, more palettes, then open up the palette libraries and find the Roland Color System Library, and load that one up. Choose BK21A to print just from the black ink cartridge, or choose BK22A to print...

  6. ACM panels on trailer.

    We have done this before. We used a frame system (not sure what the boss ordered, maybe some sort of signcomp frame). Screwed the frame system to the trailer, silicone the leading edge along with the top and bottom. We left the back edge with just screws so the customer could swap out panels...
  7. VersaWorks decided this morning to disconnect my printer, no explanation!

    I don't know how to solve/fix the actual problem. I was hoping someone with IT experience would chime in and know a quick fix. I just don't download anything, or stream anything while I am printing.
  8. VersaWorks decided this morning to disconnect my printer, no explanation!

    I have had this happen a few times. As far as I can figure out, it only happens when I try to download something or watch a youtube video. My rip is on the same computer that I design on and do everything else on. I need to get a separate rip computer, but trying to get the boss to let go of...

  10. Heat Resistant/High Temp Reflective For Firefighters???

    I am looking for Heat Resistant/High Temp Reflective vinyl that can be put onto oxygen tanks for firefighters. I have used regular reflective vinyl from both 3M and Oracal, but it does not seem to be doing the job. Has anyone ever heard of or seen anything?
  11. Need specs on computer shopping...

    We just got our second Signburst Inferno from Casey on Friday. They are great computers, well worth the cost.
  12. Phototex printing

    Yeah, MikePro is onto something. Make sure you are using the correct phototex for your printer. We use the phototex(s) on our Roland XC-540 and it comes out dry enough to use the take up reel. It is still just a little sticky, so we let it sit overnight before we put the frog juice on.
  13. Duck Mascot

    And cleats instead of shoes.
  14. Mysterious Box is printing behind shadows - from Illustrator

    Versaworks does not like shadows or transparencies created in AI. Your best bet is to Flatten Transparencies in AI and print straight to Versaworks. It is under the Object menu. Just for future reference, if you ad a cut line in AI and it does not show up in Versaworks, usually it is because...

    Sounds like your letters are just too small. We try not to do anything that has a letter height smaller than 3/8" and the stroke width must be at least 1/16".

  19. Office ergonomics...what are you doing?

    I have had lower back problems for a while and am still sitting at a desk in an office chair. But, I have chosen a chair that has the adjustable lumbar support, which helped a great deal. I have also raised my desk up from it's standard height. I put 2x4's under the legs, on edge, so 3.5"...
