  1. Which Summa.....

    Background - I have been using my Roland Versacamm SP300-V for over a decade. I have installed a cut carriage cable, new print heads, servo motor, etc. so I am not afraid to tackle any mechanical jobs on the printer. I do a lot of smaller sized print and cut decals using thick material and the...
  2. Roland SP300V - Cutting Force doesn't change

    Have had a recent odd problem. Cutting through vinyl with thick lam (15mm). New Cut Strip, Brand new 60 degree blade, and brand new OEM Blade Holder. I am still cutting at 250gf or so. I did some test cuts and increased the pressure all the way to 300gf - and there isn't much of a difference...
  3. Help Please....stumped

    Hey guys - having an issue with deflection (not head strike). Was thinking it was static related.....35-45% humidity in the office. Haven't really had issues before in the dry winter in years past until now....I added a ground from printer to the stand, have a humidifier in the room, cleaned...
  4. Head Issue

    Roland SP-300V Versaworks Test Print and Pic of print just created. Black and change of color I notice a lot of little streaks (as pictured). Also just noticed it is doing it when I printed some maroon numbers. Did a powerful clean, and a manual clean. I’ve also searched the forum but...
  5. Cut Force drops on second row

    Have 24 decals (1 in final file but in Roland changed Quantity to 24) printed and laminated - registration marks found (never been an issue) . First row of 4 decals cut force is perfect - every single time, the second and subsequent rows it barely cuts them. Same file. First time this has...
  6. What to charge - Brick Wall Installation

    What is a common per square foot charge for laminated Arlon DPF 8000 - ballpark? I know a full wrap would be different then a cut contoured logo for instance - any ideas? Interior finder block/weight room installation. Thank you!
  7. Static Cling and headstrike

    Roland Versacamm with Versaworks. Roland 7mm static cling material. I unwound the material to let it settle - but am still getting headstrike every few inches. I think I have the profile and settings dialed in (did some smaller test prints and they came out great). Now I go to the job in...
  8. What material - interior signage?

    I have seen cut out signs that are made of some type of plastic for interior purposes?.... Assuming they are CNCd to a specific custom shape to match a design - or obviously you could use a rectangle/square piece and wrap with whatever. My question is - what material is this made out of...
  9. Brick Wall - Arlon dpf 8000

    Anyone use the Arlon dpf 8000 for cinder block application? I've searched the forum already but didn't see anything in regard to lamination with this media - I normally laminate pretty much everything that leaves my office - but is lamination required using this media? I have a request to do...
  10. Roland Sp300 - Grainy Print

    Have one specific logo (person made originally in a newer version of Illustrator than what I use, so couldn't open it, told them to re-save to CS5, then they emailed it over) - that is printing grainy. Almost like it is not vector. Even when I scale it down it is real blurry when it prints -...
  11. Material Cheat When Cutting

    Roland VersaCamm. Printing multiple different sheets of material with decals/cutcontour. They always say to run off 8 inches past the last crop marks (as machine feeds material forward before "completing" the cut) before you sheet cut - however - in an effort to to save material I cut pretty...
  12. Bad Transfer Tape??

    I am having a horrible time with the backing liner splitting into two when trying to lift the transfer tape off some holographic cut vinyl. Does temperature have anything to do with it? I am in a climate controlled room..... Never had this issue before - especially if I go at a 45 degree...

    Roland 300 - have always inserted 4 brand new inks and always have used official Roland ink. I have been printing more black and magenta my last two rounds - which has subsequently left me with partially used cyan and yellow. Can I continue to leave the cyan and yellow and insert a new black...

    Hello - we are moving to a new house in a few weeks and have a few questions in regard to placement of my printer (Roland VersaCamm) and Laminator. The office space in our new house is located in the basement - finished room. My equipment, table, computer desk, etc. would all fit, however I...
  16. Permanent Kraft or substance for laminator?

    So I have laminate roll width of 30" - but my media width is 28" - therefore centered I have 1" of laminate on the outside of the media which would cause it to stick to the laminator. Is there any solution (besides using kraft paper) to install on the side of laminator to prevent the lam from...
  17. Best way to achieve this look?

    Hello - I have a picture of one of my cars that I would like to draw to create the effect of the blue car on the right. I want each panel to be editable (hence maintaining vector properties). What is the best way to achieve this? I do have a trackpad to draw - opposed to a mouse. But any...

    Hello - I am working on a sled wrap for my daughters snowmobile. I have the template, made the design as a swatch and have it positioned exactly where I want it.
