First post!
But anyways I had a fatal error code on the screen of my printer. It said " service call 0250 [0202] contact roland "
I got ahold of the ppl that I bought the printer from and who set it up. And they said they dont know what it means n they were waiting for roland to get back...
Our FC8600 has started to become less accurate. It drifts in accuracy after about 2-3 feet.
See my photos below.
The W is dead on but 2-3 feet down the roll the C has drifted by about 1/8 of an inch.
Does anyone know what we can do to solve this?
Our grit rollers seem to be clean and...
Printer is about almost 2 years old.
Last year printer was ghosting and printhead 1 was having problems with black that cleaning would not help. It is unknown if these problems are related.
A tech came out and replaced the mainboard (fixed the ghosting) and printhead. This fixed the problem...
Hello everyone, I'm very new to the industry and I recently got a work order from a local blue collar guy starting his own foam injection business for concrete leveling. Its my job to produce and install his decals and I've never done it before.
I'm on my own for this project so step one is...
I don't have an installer, trainer, or tech so I am learning this new equipment all on my own. Yay!
My shop set up is: Adobe for design, Mimaki UCJV300-160 for printing, and a new Summa S3 TC160 for cutting.
I've used the Mimakis for about 4 years now and have done most of my cutting with...
I have just had new PC installed. It only has USB 3.0 ports and one USB 3.1 port, can I use these to connect to the USB 2.0 cable that is coming from the machine. If not is there an adapter that I can buy to solve the issue.
So I am looking for information or techniques that anyone might have or use on putting your printer to winter sleep so to speak!
I have 2 of the LEC2-640 and we don't need 2 at the moment, not complaining about having 2, but the company I work for decided we needed 2 when we didn't have one...
Hey i'm looking for anyone who has knowledge with either of these two software brands. Im trying to do a simple mill job with my celero4 and i have no idea how to do it. i got basic knowledge but im completly lost.
I recently purchased a HP335, I have been loving using it aside from one problem when running briteline 70/30 perf film. The material starts to wrinkle and hits the print heads as they run across, smearing the ink, I have tried adjusting the temperature and the passes but nothing seems to help...

Issue #1 Material looks like it melted/flowed from too much heat (Appears on most of the print, not just the middle area as shown in the pic, I was just trying to get a close up.

I've been asked to make some machine overlays which I cut on my laser cutter but I'm a little stuck as to what materials to print on using my 2 printers. I have a BN20A and a Sawgrass SG1000 sublimation printer.
The card stock I'm trying to use is called PolyBak very durable/strong but also...
Hello guys, I'm still pretty new here.
I have recently made the jump into starting my own small sign shop after working for over 20 years on other peoples shops on and off. However, in all those years I was only involved in design and manufacturing and never in coming up with pricing. My...

Hi team,
Wondering if anyone else has had the fight of the century featuring a latex printer and printing onto Optical Clear material.
We are having this ongoing battle every time we use the material.
The material is sticking in the loading chamber causing the print zone to get all types of...
OK... So, I have been using DesignArt PRO software daily for more than 20 years. Before you hate. I find myself married to it, for this is where all my past designs were created. It was the software used when I took this job in 1999 and already housed thousands of designs. The software company...
I was trying to print out a past job and noticed that my blues were not clost to what I had before. I figured out that it was because an entire nozzle isnt working for cyan on print head 2.
Any idea how this can be fixed without replacing the nozzle. Ive done a manual cleaning and several head...
I feel like after digging through so many posts involving Gerber plts I don't have many options at this point. I work in a small sign shop of just myself. We used Gerber Omega 4.0 for a long time but as I came in they switched to Flexi. I've been fine with it for the longest time. Over time...
I have a Mistral 1650, 55'' Laminator. When I try to run vinyl through the machine it won't feed the material. It pulls in the vinyl a little and then shoots it back out and does not move forward.
It makes a large clacking sound when trying to feed.
