  1. Roland VG2 printer Cyan stopped working

    My printhead needed replacing because of lines in the cyan, according to the service tech last month. I could get away with running on high quality and manually dabbing the head on a manual clean every now and again so i left it. Well today after a manual clean i got absolutely nothing from the...

    Just get a knife and cut the tab off ( if they are the solid white plastic cartridges) no need to open.
  5. For Sale Rasterlink 3, 5 and 6 for sale

    See the problem here with Rasterlink is that the program is only needed if you have purchased a Mimaki product. We recently got flooded and lost everything but managed to save our mimaki flatbed. We lost the licence number for finecut and Mimaki wanted to charge us $250 for a replacement. To...
  6. How to remove ink from Roland ink cartridges that still contain ink?

    If they are the plastic ones with the tab just cut the tab off. Of course then you run the risk of the ink running out completely but in my experience got about an extra 20 - 30 metres
  7. Whats a good starter vinyl media printer?

    We took the plunge 15 years ago. Once you get the printer you will find it opens up all avenues of work. We started with a Roland. We now have a latex HP and a Mimaki. Roland have by far the shortest learning curve. Stay away from Mimaki, more expensive than Roland and literally needs it's hand...
  8. Advice on expanding your business

    MX graphics are a tough crowd. Been doing it for 15 years. Keeping up with the big guys. Flatbed cutters and all that.

  13. looking for a print shop with a summa dc printer

    I had a gerber edge, brilliant even though the technology is so old. It was too narrow for what we need so sold it. Real shame they dont bring out a newer wider model. Definitely a market for it.

Then when printing as the carriage changes direction it occasionaly drops off. I have cleaned everything, and cant see anything obvious. Has anybody else had...
