I have this exact saw. Paid 1200 for it 23 years ago. Still works perfectly. I am on the second blade. The blades are pretty much a funky off size and not cheap, I paid 250 for the second one but if used properly they last years. My first is actually out being sharpened so I can swap out blades...
If you have white ink capabilities, use it. You will have a terrible time with holographic, mirrored and chrome, finding reg marks to plot after printing on these materials. If you can slam a block of white where reg marks will be (good luck) then it might read them. The light reflecting off of...
Roland warranty isn't worth the paper it's printed on. Just paid over 1200 to replace a motherboard in a 9 month old machine under warranty. Glad I did't get the extended. Add to that it has the worst plotter I have ever cut vinyl with on the cutting side. Will be my first and last roland.
Track saw is fine, blade should be carbide triple chip with as many teeth as you can find. Can be pricey but worth it. If you can trim it and it still be size needed for job I would.
I use the lidco felt on one edge 6" squeegee for 90% off applications of vinyl. I use the 12" to lay down transfer tape and then burnish with the 6". Wear 'em out, toss 'em, order more.

That looks like either when I'm not paying attention and load a sheet of film in my desktop printer on the wrong side or too much ink. Maybe curing. If it is clean from the printhead and spreads and hasn't before I go along with maybe bad film. Interested to see what happens with another brand.
Have new pans poured and formed in white so you can letter the exterior surface. Or they can spend the extra bucks and have theirs done raised or back sprayed with design. Just had wholesalesignsuperstore.com (daniels) do two six foot circles for us back sprayed. They looked great.
First two tools I bought after plotter all those years ago were a table and panel saw. Been using them both regularly. You can get away with a tale saw as Gino said, just get a triple chip blade with as many teeth as you can. Usually around 80 teeth or so. To trim burs I remove protective sheet...
