If you don't lock the head when running the limit position routine this is the error you will get.

It's the encoder strip not cutter cable and guides. Clean it with 70% isopropyl alcohol. You may have to remove the encoder sensor and clean it as well. After all of this is done don't forget to run env. match. You could also flip the encoder strip and use the bottom side of it.

Did you precharge the damper with ink before replacing it? It sounds like the head may not have ink in it. All heads have a thermistor in them but only the black channel reads the thermistor during normal printing. FW 3.0 was known to cause this bug with the scan motor.

Did you precharge the dampers with ink before replacing them? Did you check the fuses with an ohms meter for continuity? A blown fuse can look fine to the naked eye.

check the fuse on the main board most likely it's blown.

You have the largest Roland dealer in the world there in Houston give them a call and they can get you a cap top which is the issue. Do not do ink pump up if you have the original pumps this can cause them to fail.

The mark goes to the outside on the outer pinch rollers the middle pinch rollers are different than the outer ones they are flat and it does not matter which way you install them. Load some vinyl in your machine before changing them out so when you drop the washers they don't fall down into the...

Less than $80 for a real Roland motor. Any Roland dealer can help you with this.

Make sure before buying this that you have reset the card it may not be bad. You can get the instructions on doing this from a Roland dealer service department. They don't fail that often.

The covers are a pita but they do help keep ink in place from the wipers as the come past the scraper basically you just got to adjust (tech term for bend) it into place.

Roll some material off the roll so it's not pulling any load and see if it goes away. To much tention on the roll can cause this issue. However all piezo heads will fail eventually. It could be the screen in the damper is clogged and starved for ink.

Are you getting air in the syringe? It could be a cracked ink manifold where the damper attaches. Also pull the skins and have someone watch the hoses whe you pull ink through you may have a cracked ink line especially on a printer that old.

Only use 70% 90% is to hot and yes you can flip the encoder strip.

We have sold over 1,000 Roland printers I head up the service department so I really know what I am talking about, the bearings should last longer than 3 years we have replaced less than 4 in over 10 years.

I have new ones sitting in Dallas. I also have instructions if needed.

Roland are by far the most purchased units in the world for a reason. They are supported by a first class company and serviced nationwide. No need for fancy hype or made up terms, would you rather have a huge amount of support to depend on in person if needed or calling someone on the phone...

Use an Ohms meter and check F3 on the main board for continuity. If it's open it's blown. But even simplier is to use a syringe to pull some ink (with the heads capped) from the cap top line (where it connects into the pump) into a syringe. If you can pull in ink it most likely is the fuse...

The SP does not store the IP address on the printer like posted earlier. Only the newer printers like the VP (which is technically a versacamm) store the IP address. You need to either look it up in versaworks under the printer pull down menu under printer settings or load intercon net tool...

XC540 and VP use the same code to access service mode There are two different sequences that will get you in but both will work for this printer. Other post is correct, the code for the older printers is different.

You must be running a SP printer. If it's older than 2 years old and still running the original pump I would get a flash light and check around the pump look for ink on the white gear or wet ink. You might have a ruptured line but typically it is the magenta / yellow side that does this. A...
