  1. help needed with this heat (weather)

    Cut too deep, or using the wrong transfer tape. There are three differently tacking transfer tapes available from 3M. (Other vendors will have it as well)
  2. Xc 540 head clunking

    My experience is, that the timing belt and pulleys are the culprit. There mostly is dust and ink mist build up on the pulleys until the belt jumps teeth. I use a tooth pick or a cut cable tie to remove the buildup on the pulleys and you are good to go for another couple of years.
  3. Replacing my vinyl cutter, recommendations?

    That's exactly describing it... one pull is really easylier and faster than holding down every dot in a text.
  4. Need Help "position invalid, out of range" error - any solutions?

    Looks like one of the sensors is defective.
  5. Roland Truevis VG2-640 - Banding issues

    Get the head replaced. Some of those Ricoh heads just don't work correctly. Cyan seems to be most problematic...
  6. roland vs 640 wont read crop marks

    Versaworks 6 doesn't support the VS-640. But it supports the VS-640i, because it's a newer model.
  7. Replacing my vinyl cutter, recommendations?

    Summa, if you want to ease your weeding for the next couple of years. I don't understand people "saving" money on mediocre cutters and then spending their time and nerves on weeding for years and years... I once had a case, when a customer sent a media back, that "didn't work anymore". He was...
  8. Printer won't initiate job sent to it...

    Are you by any chance trying it on win7 or win8? You need at least win10 for the actual VW versions.
  9. Question Is it worth saving my Roland ?

    WBS is right IMHO. If you print for a living, dump it. Especially this model, that is notorious for mainboard failure. (There are posts here on how people try to replace network devices(SMD parts on the PCB) or resolder the boards and be without a working printer for months... really? If you can...
  10. Need Help My pinch roller lever got broken off

    I see those break all the time. (A little less often, when the user is the owner, because I tell them to handle it with care...) One of my customers built a replacement of stainless steel... a clever build without the need to take it apart.
  11. SignLab 10

    Reinstall a actual dongle driver. (Preferrably from the dongle company)
  12. NEED HELP IN THE WORST WAY! XC540 Acting very weird!

    Is it an original encoder strip? They can have different stepping...
  13. Roland XF-640 8 color mode?

    No, it's either double CMYK, or LC/LM W. It would make no sense (speed wise) to have only two colors double. Except for white.
  14. Roland XF-640 8 color mode?

    No(there is no ink circulation) and Versaworks doesn't support it.
  15. Need Help Any Roland electrical geeks in the house? IC check slot error

    There was a update with the IC chips. You should update to the latest firmware. I had such a problem a while ago with a XC-540.
  16. Versaworks pure red on white suddenly not working

    You could print your white layer in the film setting and also with go back to point zero after printing in the cut setting. Then print your red with the generic vinyl setting. If you do this, it's a good idea to create a rectangle around your design to keep the registration correct. (When Roland...
  17. Cleaning solution for textile sublimation printing

    DI water from the gas station for most parts. You can add some windex, as it adds tensides to enhance the cleaning efficiency. If you add some ammonia spirit(max. 1% in the final solution), it's a absolute supercleaner for water based inks.
  18. AI generated wording - ick

    Dall-E
  19. Ink bleed at the start of print

    I'm not into Mutoh's anymore, but if it uses Epson DX7 or the likes, it could be a internal leak in the head. Then, the only remedy is a head replacement.
