When I remember correctly, there was something like a "parameter initialize", when they showed strange behaviour. But then, all the settings are lost and some machine specific parameters (written somewhere on the chassis behind the cover on the right side) need to be set. The same procedure, as...

I'm certified Roland tech and never use it. But I also work quickly and never let a opened UV printer unattended.(not only Roland, but also Mimaki, EFI Vutek, Durst. ..)

The pinch force isn't adjustable, except you are able to replace the springs in the pinch roller holders with weaker ones.

If you insert non-gold heads, you need to change the way the cleaning is done. This is done by changing a "system switch".

The XR is a "pro" model and has two heads with 8 channels each. The VG is a "versa" and has 4 heads with 2 channels each. This gives the difference in printing speed.

I'd suspect the choke valve.

Some people keep the jobs of the last 20 years in the list... this can slow down the PM as well.

iI can't see the dancer bar, that trips the sensor.

Do a medium cleaning having a set of cartridges in one position, then put the cartridges in the other position and do a couple (2-3) power cleanings.

Post a photo of the displayed error.

Do a "Sensor check" to see, if the switch is working.

The Roland Max3 has a very clean yellow (compared to Max and Max2). It also dries faster. Lately, I had some issues with Max3 yellow. I switched those (customers)machines back to Max2.

The Versaworks update won't change a thing. It's mostly because of newly introduced printers. Except your version is very old.

They are almost identical in terms of parts. So it will affect both, when HP decides to stop support.

Could be a faulty web wipe. A customer of mine once installed a L1500 web wipe into a R1000... gave him similar problems.

You need to do horizontal adjustment in service mode.

It's normal, that the heater is off by default in service mode. You can turn it on, if you want to.

What happens, if you use the "hotfolder method"? If this also fails, it's definitely a Onyx issue.

Very interesting and good to know.. Thank you.

There aren't many active components to go bad on the carriage boards on "pre Ricoh" Rolands. As far, as I remember it was a opamp that buffers the thermistor and the sensor. That said, it will likely be a transistor on the headboard, or in this case the main board. (by the way, the transistors...
