  1. Question Upgrade for Epson S80600

    I know they had it for a couple of months now. I was talking to a Grimco sales rep while trying to decide what printer to get and he said they have been extending them on the regular basis. He also said that when they do take it away they usually bring the promotion back a couple months later. I...
  2. Question Upgrade for Epson S80600

    Thank you all for the great explanations and comparisons. In the end we decided to stick with Roland. Our boss decided that it makes sense due to how little variety of printing we do since it's only an in house printer for our fleet of vans. We decided to go with the VG2-640 with the 5 year...
  3. Question Upgrade for Epson S80600

    We had a similar issue with our Roland. We are right between Boston and New York so a bit of a drive from either major city. There are no technicians in our area that specialize in Rolands. When you are out of warranty the travel time alone can cost as much as the repair. I think this is the...
  4. Question Upgrade for Epson S80600

    It really is because I look at it as I will be stuck with this decision for the next 5 to 8 years. (For better or worse) We really aren't big enough to have the luxury of replacing the printer any sooner than that as we have to justify it's investment before being able to replace it. Also with...
  5. Question Upgrade for Epson S80600

    Thank You for the response! I only have one baseline to use in the field of wide format printing and that's the Roland XR-640. In all honesty I personally think it is a great printer, but not having anything to compare it to, it can be deceiving. Considering a switch to a new brand is making me...
  6. Question Upgrade for Epson S80600

    Also, how would the R5070 compare to the other ECO-Sol printers?
  7. Question Upgrade for Epson S80600

    Hello all, I am sorry to jump in on your thread, but I am somewhat in the same boat. I am in no means an expert on printing or printers, but have been running an XR-640 for about 6 years. Everything that I know about printing has been self-thought and found here/ googling. I mainly use it for...
  8. Need Help XR-640 unexpected colour issues

    Hello, Sorry to bring this back up, but did you ever figure out what was causing the colors to be off? I am running into a similar issue after updating VersaWorks. We experienced some issues with our XR-640 printer that resulted in both heads being replaced and after the work was completed the...
  9. Need Help Roland XR-640 doesn't recognize any of the 8 ink cartridges

    Jim, Thank you for the response, I sent you a message with my phone number please feel free to contact me at your earliest convenience. If we can get pass the ink issue it will be a lot easier to continue diagnosing any other problems that the printer may have.
  10. Need Help Roland XR-640 doesn't recognize any of the 8 ink cartridges

    I understand what you're saying. I find it odd also. It could be because the machine wasn't discharged properly first. Is there a proper discharge procedure on these when doing a repair? In our case the issues seems to be with the bad head board since I found a shorted transistor on the new and...
  11. Need Help Roland XR-640 doesn't recognize any of the 8 ink cartridges

    Hi everyone, I have a Roland XR-640 that I am trying to fix. Seven months ago we had problems with the printer where the test print was inconsistent on one of the heads. We called a certified Roland tech to troubleshoot and fix the problem. He told us he needed to replace one of the heads. Once...
