  1. Gerber Odyssey...Pinchwheel Error

    Late last night I was doing a pen plot on some paper. Somehow near the end of the plot the paper bunched up and knocked a sensor underneath the carriage. I didn't realize it and shut the machine down and started up. I took the carriage apart and inserted the sensor, however now it's giving me an...
  2. SC-540 Odd Banding... HELP!

    On the keypad the button displays "TEST PRINT". When I press it it has several colums of colors. Where would I be looking for a gap?
  3. SC-540 Odd Banding... HELP!

    Thank Woolly I will try again tomorrow. I did what you suggested and the banding has minimized, but not completely gone. I will try the Print Test observe and see about the feed settings. Thanks again for taking the time out and sheding a little knowledge.
  4. SC-540 Odd Banding... HELP!

    "Feed calibration can be seen on the test print the join of the two passes" Kinda of lost on that one. I did not run the heater when I did this. I Will try those suggestions. Thanks Woolly, you helped me out last time.
  5. SC-540 Odd Banding... HELP!

    A while ago I had some help here and it resolved my problem but not completely. I went into the service menu and adjusted the horizontal settings. Afterwards I did a bi-directional print adjustment and I did a little more tweaking and it's spot on. The problem now is when I do a "fill" test...
  6. Encoder Strip Replacement - SC-540

    Last POST Guys I want to thank you all for pointing me in the right direction. I was able to adjust and now it's printing fine. I'm so relieved.. sorry for the multiple posts. That adjustment did wonders. When I did the bi-directional test print (which I did prior) it was spot on. I'm doing my...

    Oh gosh I sound like a loose cannon...I actually had to set it to the lowest position to get this to function. Happier now that I can at the very least get it to test print. Now to see about adjusting.
  8. Encoder Strip Replacement - SC-540

    Okay so I found where the horizontal and vertical alignment options would be in the Service Menu but I hit another stumbling block. When I try to print a test patter, it gives me the error that hte head height is too low. I move the physical lever on the head height to the highest position but...

    Frank, where would I do the horizontal alignment? I presume under the service menu?
  10. Encoder Strip Replacement - SC-540

    Where can one get a service manual? It sounds like you must make some small incremental adjustments.....or should I be better off paying a tech guy to come in? It is really making the work appear shoddy, I can't produce professional results and charge for it looking like this.
  11. Encoder Strip Replacement - SC-540

    Thanks guys, you given me some more insight on the issue. How hard is it to replace media sensor? What is the costs? woolly, I saw the tech guy (I paid tech to replace the head) do some sort of alignment different from the bi-directional print alignment. Where would I access that? I...
  12. Encoder Strip Replacement - SC-540

    Hello All, I've been coming to this great website since I started my business nearly 2 years ago and I FINALLY took the plunge and registered. I own a Roland SC-540 and it's giving me some odd banding that I can't get rid of. Seems like when I print fine lines it's not aligning all the...
