  1. LCD Display on Tempo 600

    The display on my Tempo 600 has faded off almost to non existent, for the longest time, I could see it if I viewed it from specific angles, but today I can barely see it, no matter what I do. I haven't cracked it open yet, but can the display be replaced separately or does it need to be the...
  2. Printing to specific Queues-Versaworks 5

    Normally, I just save an eps file to a shared folder and then load into VW, but after about 10 years, I'm finally coming around to printing certain jobs directly to the queues. However, I can't find any options to be able to send certain jobs to Queue A and certain ones to Queue B, everything...
  3. Need stand for Gerber Tempo 600

    Acquired a used Tempo 600 from the local tech, but he doesn't have a stand for it. Anybody have one or know where I could purchase?
  4. Take-up Reel Flange

    Bought a used take-up reel for my VP-540v. I believe the system came off a 60" Mutoh, my Roland tech cut the bar down and got everything mounted for me, he said it's the exact same system as the Roland. However, the flanges are not for a 3" core and we've just wrapped tape around them to make...
  5. Magenta registration off VP-540

    Magenta and black registration by jsalda posted Sep 11, 2017 at 11:29 AMStarted noticing that solid reds next to solid black have small gaps in between the colors. Where do I go to adjust?
  6. CutContour not working in Versaworks (not transparency issue)

    So, one of my employees was having issues the other day, and instead of asking for help, he initializes Versaworks and nukes all the settings! Hard to be mad, he was trying to fix himself, but c'mon! So, I went in, setup all the queues and settings, but now, for some reason, VW will not see...
  7. Fire Department Shield with Eco-Sol

    Local FD is wanting to update 3 or 4 of their trucks. They have a new truck that they are wanting to match, but the manufacturer is wanting $1600 per set for new shields. I know it can be done with Gerber Edge, but is there a way to effectively make it happen with Eco-Sol tech? Gold & silver...
  8. Used Spectrophotometer and Versaworks

    Looking to start building my own color profiles, specifically, so I can get close, consistent color between my VP540 & SP540v. Not looking to be dead on, just close enough that 95% of the population wouldn't notice. Brand new X-rite goes for +$2k, but I noticed in this video, he uses an X-rite...
  9. Color consistency between SP-540v & VP-540

    I know the long, involved answer to this is to create custom profiles for each machine. However, currently, I'm looking to just try and get close color between our SP-540v & VP-540. The VP tends to lean heavily towards the magenta. I've attached a picture for reference. Exact same file, same...
  10. Need Help Versaworks Slow Rip

    The last couple of weeks, I've noticed that VersaWorks all of the sudden has been getting slower and slower on RIP speeds. Adding jobs to a queue is taking much longer also. Seems like jobs that used to rip in 5-10 minutes are now taking 45 mins, and I'm not exaggerating. Nothing has changed...
  11. Versaworks Job Properties Sp540v Vs Vp540

    I just acquired a used VP540, prints good, very low hours; really pleased with it. In setting up Versaworks so that everything is consistent between it and my current SP540v, I noticed that VW handles the printing of job properties on the sheet differently for the VP. Let's say I'm running a...
  12. Sp-540v Stops Mid Print

    During a long run, the printer will just stop printing and the display on the printer says "Now Processing" and it just stays there. I have to shut off via the sub-power and bring it back up. VersaWorks shows the job go through completion and doesn't provide any errors. This happened last year...
  13. SP-540v Ink drop out

    I've been battling this issue for a while now and am tired of it! Finally taking the time to post and see if anybody has any solutions. I get ink dropping out on solids, especially noticeable on dark colors. The Cyan/Black head is about 2 years old and a head print test comes out good. The two...
  14. SP540v Stops printing midway, "processing"

    Have had this issue several times earlier this week. Running some moderately long wrap prints, about 45 min on fast quality. Job gets about 3/4 of the way done and then printer beeps and the print head stops halfway across the platen. Display just shows "PROCESSING." Job drops off of VersaWorks...
  15. Avery MPI 1005 RS EZ & SP-540V heat settings

    Just had my pinch rollers replaced, apparently they have been cracked for some time. Now that my contour cutting is dead on, another issue has cropped up, Avery 1005 is buckling and I'm getting head strikes. I'm guessing that before, the pinch rollers were allowing the material to slip slightly...
  16. Dedicated cutting on SP-540v

    For the past 8 years I partnered up with another shop that had a SP-540 and a dedicated 24" cutter. Always used the Roland for printing and the cutter for old school vinyl. Well now I've gone out on my own and found a nice used SP-540v for myself. Going to use it for all printing and cutting...
  17. Head alignment on SP-540v?

    Had some dropout issues, was finally able to resolve with soaking the heads and cleaning, but now on the test print, some of the lines are out of alignment on black & cyan, resulting in some slight, white spots on prints. Already performed the bi-directional adjustment, but I'm assuming it's...
