  1. Roland SC 540 printing crazy

    Brad: Did it turn out to be a problem with the mainboard? I had this same problem on a RS-640 last week and after 25 minutes of troubleshooting, I determined the board had bad leg on the heat sink (which controls signals to the heads) New mainboard fixed the problem. But I have also seen the...
  2. HELP!!! VersaCamm VP-540i

    Are you still having a problem getting connected to the printer?
  3. service call 0101 on a cadet 54 Plus (SP-540V)

    Did you solve this problem?
  4. "now processing" message during cutting

    Is the problem resolved?
  5. SC-500 Main Board

    SC-500???? Could it be a SC-540 or 545ex?
  6. misaligned cutcontour sp300

    If you can get into service mode...perform the print/cut adj and see if the results on this test resemble what your prints are. If so adjust it and reprint your job and see it is fixed. Encoder strips can cause it to be off but seriously unlikely. If the drive cable is loose this will be more...
  7. Drawing Ink Thru Lines

    Still having problems???
  8. Black is printing green

    100%K 25%M 25%C. Leave the yellow from the equation. Yellow is not going to add any color other than a hue difference. 3rd party inks suck!! There is no good aftermarket ink that will not in time cause issues. Thats why Roland, Mutoh & Mimaki have their own inks. These are tested and known to...
  9. SPxxx"i" series: down time?

    You will want to always leave it set like that. It doesnt use alot of ink because it is simply just purging the heads. Running a CMYK test print of some sort is always helpful to. Because that actually fires the head with actual voltage which in turns moves the ink through the entire ink system.
  10. feeling sick all the time!!!

    If OSHA walks in there and measures the VOC level of the room and they tell your employer to fix it or else...trust me she will fix it OR close the doors. They will allow her a little bit of time, but after that, the fines get real expensive real quick. Simple as that!!!
  11. Media One ink for Roland

    I would be very hesitant about any sales person walking in and saying there is no need to flush and no specific profile needed. All third party inks need profiling. I would want to know where its made. Ink pigment and solvent parts are usually different from the actual manufacturer inks...
  12. Vp-540 is cuttting random lines

    Does the cutter solenoid look like its moving up and down? How far out is the blade set?
  13. Mimaki JV33 head starving problem with bulk system ....

    Bulk ink systems that are open air systems are fed from gravity like what Artbot was speaking of. Serious thinking of cartridge placement in height is very important and can make huge changes, so be very careful about what you do and how much you change it. I have the ink starvation issue...
  14. Troubleshooting Advice Needed

    If it doesnt print at all it sounds like a headboard fuse for that color has popped. You can swap the head cables and find out the easiest way. Just change the magenta with the cyan and if the cyan quits printing and the magenta prints you know thats the problem. Make sure to keep the cables...
  15. Rockhopper 2 How to change ink set CMYKLMLC to 2 x CMYK?

    This is the best way to run this printer. It will print faster and I think the color control is much better. I believe you can change this setting in the parameters menu. You will have to perform a headwash to make this change.
  16. Urgent Help Regarding VP-540

    Quake-- Have you tried swapping head flat cables? Move both from Black to cyan and cyan to black or you can switch the cyan and magenta. Just make sure you pull both from the cyan and both from the other head, plug them in the same order on the head. Or you can mark them with L and R on each...
  17. SP300 Versa camm

    Black/Cyan one head Magenta/Yellow on the other What you have is a deflection problem. As stated earlier it is mostly caused by the wiper not cleaning the head correctly. Bad news is this, once the deflection happens, it will most likely not ever go away. This deflection will cause overspray...
  18. Service Mode Q

    You do not have to go into service mode to change the caps. Go into maintenance mode and you can change them from there. You just need to be able to get them in the up position. Good Luck
  19. JV33 Not printing magenta on one complete channel

    Will run fine after a clean. Then about in the same place on this mainly red job it will start to drop out. I immediatley cancel the print and run a nozzle check and one complete channel was gone. The other channel prints and looks great. So I changed all the dampers, all the joint valves and...
  20. What might cause this?

    I had a tech at my place today looking at the printer I just purchased. Was doing a similar thing. He put a set of dampers on, o-rings on the ink lines at the joint valve assemblys which he replaced aswell on each damper and it was printing really good. Has some deflection on the black side of...
