  1. New Roland VG2 - VG3 - SG2 - SG3 USERS -buyer beware, you cannot fix your own machine.

    Thanks to signs101, we have found that the Roland VG2 - VG3 - SG2 - SG3 printers do not have access to service mode any longer with the typical on-menu keypad combination, it's ONLY accessible with the Peck2 tool via a certified Roland credentialed login and a laptop plugged in. This means...
  2. UCJV300 - Whats your technique for getting the captops out?

    The service manual says to release the plastic hooks, I did this a year or so ago and releasing the hooks was seemingly super easy, as I don't remember fighting with it. There is the hook in the front that I assume needs to be pushed down and in towards the printer to let the captop come...
  3. Buyer Beware: Airmark $99 PER PHONE CALL for out of warranty support.

    Airmark has seemingly "changed" their policy, and it's now $99 per phone call to work with them on any machine problem when the machine you purchase from them is out of warranty. https://www.airmark.com/collections/technical-support-plans Our Roland, Mimaki, etc. dealers support us over the...
  4. Attention Flexisign Users....

    We have an extra version of Flexisign and wanted to sell it, no big deal, did it before, so I sent an e-mail to Sai to get the license transferred. Come to find out, you cannot sell an extra version of Flexisign without completely transferring your whole account to someone new, which costs $450...
  5. Non-OEM Summa Blade Alternative?

    Saw that OEM Summa blades went from $132 per 5 pack to $199 per 5 pack overnight, Summa machinery is getting more and more expensive to run based on their ever increasing prices for consumables. Anyone have any alternatives to their blades?
  6. Those with Rolands with take up issues...our solution *video inside*

    After years of fighting with Rolands take up reel system on our XR640, we finally invented a solution that works. We've had everyone from Roland try to figure it out. We've adjusted the silver dancer bar a million times, we've tightened, re-tightened, adjusted, etc. - the take up simply...
  7. Flexi and IProfiler + i1pro2 when building profiles...

    Which parts do you use Flexi for and which parts do you guys use iprofiler (or profile maker 5) for when building a custom profile? We've been told to link these 2 pieces of software together with importing different aspects into flexi when building a profile, curious which steps are more...
  8. FlexiSign Pro Cloud, Windows Version, For Sale - $3500.00

    We have a full version of FlexiSign PRO Cloud - currently in use on a Windows 7 64 bit machine. This is the latest software from Flexi and still receives upgrades through the cloud. This software was purchased through an authorized Flexi vendor, it is not bootlegged, not a cracked copy and is...
  9. Max 2 White ink - What's the final word?

    Roland claims the opacity is increased, but what kind of real world experiences are you having with the new Max 2 White ink? Is the opacity great enough where a sticker printed with just 1 pass of white, will appear as white (and not washed out grey) if applied to a tinted window? We have...
  10. Does Flexi Cloud fully support Summa S2 cutters?

    We are looking at the Summa S2 Series, T140 cutter. Summa recommends we use their standard winplot software with their cutter, but we are Flexi Cloud people, so we need all functions (Flexcut, Contour cut) to work with the cutter correctly when using only Flexi for Rip and Cutting (we want to...
  11. Sheet set error...

    My Xc-540 is getting a sheet set error no matter what I do.. It will also have a hard time finding the crop marks sometimes. This is something that is new and hasn't happened in the past, so I know I am setting the printer up correctly. Is this the data cable? Is there anything else I can...
  12. Greys printing pink all of a sudden?

    I can't figure this one out, all of my greys have decided to add a pink hue to them. I have checked everything possible. SC-545EX - 6 color, of course. Flexi 7.6v2. The test print looks fine. Some deflected nozzles, but nothing extreme to make this color shift. All inks are full. I...
  13. Stripped head on screw while changing head on xc540, what now?

    These bolts are so sensitive to being stripped. Well, I have stripped one of the small screw heads that hold in the head. Does anyone have any advice on how to get the head out with the stripped bolt? What's the easiest method to get the head out? Has anyone stripped one? This one is...
  14. Flexi 8.1 + Summa DC4Sx - printing onto clear with underbase..

    I have a new summa dc4sx and I cannot get it to do what I want it to do in Flexi 8.1v1. I am printing onto clear and want to underbase the color with another color. I have been using the "duotone" option in flexi and have also tried the underbase option briefly. Flexi is telling the printer...
  15. XC-540 with WHITE - Anyone running it?

    Is anyone running this printer that is here? If so, what is your experience with it? Are print times slow? How is the white on clear vinyl? Overall impressions? I may jump into one of these printers, but can't find much information on it. They supposedly changed the ink around to be a...
  16. Gx-300 + flexi 7.6v2?

    Does anyone here have any experience with this setup? Can I simply use the setup for the Cx-300 within Flexi? I have purchased a gx-300 and it will be here on Thursday. Thanks!
  17. Flexi 7.0 and Roland sc-545?

    I have flexi 7.0 and would like to be able to use it with my sc-545, is this possible? When "adding a printer" it doesn't have it listed, only the sc-500. Do I need to upgrade my flexisign version? Is there anyway around this? Seems a little off that I can't add in the printer. Thanks! Nathan.
