yet another option... Sign Wizard. For vinyl and now printing, I have been using SignWizard from Aires Graphics for years. www.aries-graphics.com/ Intuitive and very fast for vinyl cutting work. Version7 handles all my printing needs very well using my Versacamm. I have not used the LED...

Versacamm cut consistancy Hi Ragnabrok, Thank you for your thoughts on the pinch wheel rollers. Mine are ok but I had not thought to look closely at them. I am still having issues in the scan direction. Usually out 1-3mm (1/16 - 1/8 inches)to the left end when I have done a print & laminate...

SP300 Post laminating cutting drifts out of position Hi Equippaint, I am having a similar cutting problem with my SP300. The cutting outline of my stickers often (but not always) drifts. Always to the left (away from the control panel) In a one metre print job of 20 or so labels, the first...

I have had this. You are getting an ink leakage/cross over in the MY head You almost certainly have a full cartridge of M and an empty(very low) Y = An ink imbalance of some sort in the head/damper Short tem solution Replace the empty (y)cartridge with a new one. Print a block of yellow to run...

I have had a similar problem. For me it was an ink flow problem(cyan) on colour intensive prints. The ink flow could not keep up. In SETUP I simply slowed down the print speed, both the head speed and added a small pause (.5 sec)between passes. I probably need the dampers changed but it has...

I agree with the comments above, Banner vinyl is harder to print than SAV, getting small ripples in the stock happens so easily, resulting in the heads brushing the fresh print or worst knocking the print carraige off. Small ripples will come from the act of pulling the banner stock off the...

Hi Cropmarks, I have had a similar problem - for ink intensive prints the ink flow was not keeping up. I suspect, like you, that it is the dampers are partially blocked or what ever? Any how the fix was to slow down the printing, Head speed at 1000 would be too fast for my machine, an original...

Encoder Reader problem Update on this problem. Got a Tech in today. After running the encoder test (in service mode) multiple times & and getting various "not zero results"(test fail) he put in a new encoder reader. Problem Fixed. So in summary print drifting/ stepping is caused by a loss of...

I have been very happy with SW having started with an early version 18 years ago. I am using V5.1 to do all my sign design for vinyl graphics and digital printing on a Roland SP300. I find it very easy train up new users. I think I will upgrade to V7 soon, as it will import/export pdfs. Any...

I might add a bit more to my story- that I have cleaned the encoder strip and then tonight taken it out to cleaned it more carefully, inspected it with my eye glass it all looks as new (I know what a worn one looks like) & finally flipped it over in any case to a new side. result = no...

Hi NCR & others I am having an almost identical problem with my SP300. The printing is drifting. It is not consistant, sometimes to the left then straight for awhile and then in bigger steps to perhaps the right for awhile. Even the test print will be out between the two passes (which are one...

Hi Robert I have an SP300 (6 years old now!!) and need the service manual. I did have the membership & downloaded it from the premium site site a few years ago but not having to need it & having upgraded HD & computer I cannot now locate it. If you were able to forward a copy it would be very...

Red hue Solution. If it looks right on the screen, take a screen capture of it (several if necessary, cropping & moving them back into a composite) to create a new jpeg. This way you are separating yourself from the corrupting data. Cheers Blue Duck Perth Australia

Hi Preppie, I have a SP300 and was hoping to get the service manual you indicated in your post awhile ago but it is blocked to me. It would be greatly appreciated if you could please send it or a new link, Greg ( Blueduck) Perth Western Australia
