Was a head wash done at any point where the service menu fill up was not done by mistake? I lost my head select cleaning ability after a head wash from doing the wrong fill up cycle after head wash.

I always go with digiprint supplies for my LEC300A. Join some Roland Facebook groups, you might have better luck there digging up the service manual. If it counts for anything, I don’t have a service manual for my LEC and I’ve done every repair, replacement myself over the last 4-5 years. Most...

Order some in and follow the protocol in the user manual. You can/should do this yourself.

Have you done a cleaning cart head wash?

Eh, you still saved a mint. A wins a win!

I’d take a 107 for $3500 any day haha

Good luck! Post in here if it’s a success.

I’d suggest you replace all ink lines, dampers and captops if you successfully get it to accept the change. The inks are very different from one another. Keep us updated if you successfully get this done. Those EUVS machines deserve a second lease on life. Join the Roland Digital Printer...

My understanding is the system locks to EUVS and you can’t change it back. You may have to replace a board to get past this. I’m a LEC300A user, who was considering the printer you potentially bought, but walked after the EUVS realization.

Rigid media, that doesn’t flex, will need the rigid media brackets to be technically be safe. BUT, you can level tables in front and back to replicate if needed. The data sheet for this model lets you know your thickness limitations. It’s pretty much thick cardstock max on this model, the...

I would just tell them to pick up the shirts, we’re done here lol.

This hurt my eyes.

as far as I can tell, nobody is selling a EUV5 1 of 1 yet. Get the 500ml carts and accept your fate. Tossing a random ink in their sight unseen would be a great time for your heads. If you must travel this road, hit up the fine people at CMYK Engineering. They seem to enjoy solving these problems.

Always a good experience at grimco.

I run LUS170 (STS) from my UCJV. if you’re out of warranty, I’ve heard through the grapevine Marabu’s third party LUS-170 is glossier. By how much? Who knows. If you’re out of warranty I’d talk to a company like CMYK engineering to see if they have a Gen 5 compatible semi-rigid/rigid ink that...

Being the resident skateboard printer of the forum, and someone who owns a UCJV300, you’re not going to get the high gloss you seek from the LUS inks. The Mimaki ink sets are just too matte. I have a high gloss film that does nothing for the Mimaki inks, but makes my special rigid inks out of...

Depends on your opinion of entry level. The cheap China machines that are built on epson engines will have you replacing heads frequently. The properly made machines running higher end epson heads, or Ricoh heads will last longer. Quality of the ink is another conversation.

I would probably avoid this printer for Braille. It’s a very slow machine for clear and you have to multilayer to get the “texture” you’ll be seeking.

You have no idea how profitable UPS is. Generationally it’s been a career job business model. The prior contract allowed UPS to poverty employ. This contract seeks to fix that. They can afford it, trust me.
