  1. Ink splatter drops on SP300v

    Hi all, I've been seeing some ink splatter drops on my prints.... I'd see them time to time but they seem to be getting worse now and I'm not sure what the cause it. I thought it was the wipers so I cleaned them fully but that didn't really help. I just did a full maintenance mode cleaning a...
  2. SP300v started drifting as it prints

    I've had this printer for about 2.5 years now and its been ol' reliable. I clean it about once per month as I don't print all that much (maybe 6-8 posters per month) Lately, and not always, while printing it seems like its drifting off to the side. I thought maybe it was the media not feeding...

  5. Need Help Roland SP-300v printing gradients very blocky

    I have an SP300v that I've been using for the past 6 months. It prints great colors for most things, but certain gradients tend to always show as "blocky" instead of a smooth gradient. I've attached the gradient source and resulting print. Note that the resulting print probably looks worse due...
  6. Viable laminator sled ideas?

    I'm looking into buying a laminator and I would be doing single-sided lamination. I know I can use kraft paper on one side and laminate on top to do this. Or I can use a carrier sled which is likely the preferred method. But oddly, carrier sleds aren't a popular retail item from what I've seen...
  7. Why do they make printers, laminators, and cutters in different widths?

    I'm new to the game and the biggest issue I've been running into is why they don't standardize the widths for all these different machines. From what I've seen, popular printer widths are: 24", 30", 54", 65" popular laminator widths are: 25", 27", 38", 44", 51", 67" popular vinyl cutter widths...

    I'm trying to install VersaWorks 5.5 on my Windows 10 machine to talk with my SP-300v printer I've installed from scratch, did all the restarts, plugged in the printer, and started Versaworks.

  11. Question VP-300i supports white/metallic but I only see 4 cartridge spots.

    I'm looking to buy either a second hand vp-300i or vp540i but I'd like to print in cmyk as well as white and metallic. I've seen cartridges and references to CMYK, Lm, Lc, white, and silver inks. And even on the Roland website for these printers they reference how to print using these inks. But...
