graphtec problem I believe you have a problem with 1 or 2 things the first would be control board second would be x motor. If it is a plotter that is older and used a lot I know those boards wear out as well as the motor do you ever get error codes? specific errors any type? How old and often...

capping issue On a jv3 with the capping station it has to move into the right position to seal head, flash position for when the heads print a pass they come back across and spit into caps as well as the wipe position of head these all have to be set through capping station adjust through...

HZONE knows how it goes, all good true factual statements. Sad part is MacDermid made great USA made product then HP came along and screwed it all up..

3rd party ink Yeah I hear you its a "stuck in hard place" all those models got bought out by HP when they did it kind of screwed up the older printers situation. Nazdar doesn't sale it bc of the RFID chip they use. You can still find the ink I would call HP UV suppliers and see whats...

Ritrama They make a decent product that is for surely comparable to a metamark. I see a lot of screen printers use it I don't see much on the digital side even though I know it exists really just depends on where you are I think oh yea and cant forget price .

S Class Hey u said it buddy snap-on and Subaru! Follow your heart its the Summa if you want the S class lol if you wanna drive a ford and use craftsmen tools then go get that Graphtec. lol really theres no disregard when it comes to Graphtec GREAT plotter but not the S class of plotters its a...

Roland SP300 sub printing It may ruin your heads? NO it will ruin your heads you cant put sub ink through a machine that was previously running eco solvent. You need to start with a new machine or go through and replace every part the ink touches down to the cartridge holders, ink lines...

summa plotter I am a summa fan the model you are speaking about. If you are production oriented and want something that lasts a long time it goes in this order for me Graphtec, Summa, Roland. The T series is a tanginal blade meaning it spins and is very precise what its worth is hard question...

The problem with that is there isn't too many 3rd party CAN'D profiles for that printer bc it was a first generation outdoor unit. Most people that run that style printer either make custom profiles or tweak there CAN'D profiles. Heads up though on that printer it is very difficult to get...

I know something isn't right here bc the vj1324,1624 use different heads than the vj1638 IDK were GRS got that info but just thought I would make it right!

I have to chime in here bc I have a new epson F191010 or dx7 solvent head. I purchased it for my VJ1638 but ended up not needing it I have it + head cables, Main CR cables and mutoh SODIMM that are all oem new in box. Need to sale to recoop some of my lose spent close to 2500 for all and would...

I got a few ideas.... first this is a normal issue with roland print cut situation. You did everything you should but when you tighten the cable do you have a wire tensionometer? If not I would never tighten it b/c it will cause problems needs to be a certain tension 10 mm/ln next thing if the...

more than likely popped the black/cyan head channel protection fuse on mainboard. Even if you unplugged it one slip of the fragile connected ribbon cable or fluid/ink on any resistor on electronc board. Believe me easy to do... The bad news is the fuse on mainboard is a 1.6a surface solder...

may also be a pump does this roland have a new style pump installed?

Most likely it is a captop you dont even need a tool you should replace those every 8months to a year will save you r head and make the printer work better all around. Feel free to pm me if you need help.

I have to chime in on this b/c the thread started as a production question then turned into which plotter is the better. REAL SIMPLE GRAPHTEC... faster, more force, better pinch roller system, and not to mention holds heavier rolls and feeds better. The perf cut option on a graphtec is way...

I dont use that exact model but if u open versaworks go to media explorer see if you even have 2xcmyk profiles . u may have to go through update settings and select d/l all profiles instead of just your printer and ink type. yeah to do away with white and met. ink you must clear old ink...

when you use roland wipers they have felt on the back side for dabbing the heads in medium or powerful cleanings. First replace the wipers with all rubber off brand wipers it will save headache and money + they last longer. Clean heads, head carriage under belly, wiper, scraper metal bracket...

i can help you out just pm me

I agree with Roberts statements, although if it is SC-545ex versaworks is a free download and upgrades, if its a SC-540 that ran a RIP called color rip which is a dumb version of old wasatch. both of those machines are expensive to run 6 color, 12 ink cartridges. They dont come with dryer so...
