Sometimes, you need to remove the screws holding the spanning bar at the top of th cut head assembly, slightly bend the bar and replace... bending the bar gives it more tension and should keep the wheels tight against the guide rail.
Your magenta head looks permanently deflected. Buy the captop and replace it... run a clean or two and do test print. See if the new captop helps at all. If not, I suspect the head is not going to get better on its own.
Curious... have you changed the wiper or wiper scraper ever?
Take the covers off and clean every piece of metal that the Carriage Guides touch during regular printing. Then get some Teflon Tape and place over these areas. This may allow the guide to slide with less drag.
It is also possible the guides were installed incorrectly.
The client I spoke of purchased a converted Roland with Lyson ink. This was well over 10 years ago. They opted out on the Laminator (back then) based on the ink life being stated as "up to 3 years unlaminated". Narrow minded but at the time, they were just getting into the digital print...
Hey Dave... you get sunlight in the hills of London, KY ??? :)
Most of the time, extended exposure to Sun/UV Light will fade the color while everyday abrasion will also scratch the material (unless laminated) and cause a loss of color.
Manufacturers say "Up to 3 Years" while I have seen some...
Another option... Network the two computers with file sharing. Then can keep your current setup and save/access all of your files from one drive.
Design in Flexi and save EPS file to common drive/folder. Open Versaworks and import file to cut.
Graphtec CB15u (red tip) holder with CB15u-K30 Blade. Ideal for cutting between 0.6mm and 1.6mm.
Expensive. Probably could get by with the standard CB15u blade.
