  1. Roland VS 640 acts strange after print is done?

    After it finishes a print the printer inches out the vinyl for about 9-10 inches in very small increments like a sixteenth at a time. It has always inched out the vinyl a few inches so it can be cut off but this now seems excessive. Somebody probably was playing with settings somewhere and won't...

  3. Canvas printed on an HP 5500UV?

    I have a (light) pole banner job coming up that I have done on the HP 5500 UV, printing the banners single sided then sewing them together with pole pockets top and bottom. I have a Roland VS-640 on order that should be installed before this job is ready to go and I am wondering if it is...
  8. Roland Eco-Sol inks?

    I am narrowing in on buying a Roland VS-640 with Eco-Sol CMYK, LC, LM, WH & MT inks. I have been using an HP 5500ps/UV with aqueous inks so I will need to buy a whole new set of supplies. Obviously the Roland brand media/supplies will work well with their printer but at a premium. My question...
