I picked up a Roland VG-540 a while back. Had a local sign supply company check it out, walked me through the setup, pretty much immediately had to replace a head due to what looked like a head crash that had happened before I bought it. No issues with it at all, it's been a great machine, until...
I'm wondering if there is a way to print using only 1 of the 2 print heads (A & B) on our XR-640. We've got a bad head (B) and are working on budgets to get it replaced, but it would be really awesome if we could limp along on 1 head for the time being. We can do this on our Epson S80600. I've...
Hello signs101 guru's, im having very odd problems with my mutoh valuejet 1324x. i was having 1 in streaks of pink/magenta at the start of my prints and pretty bad banding (pic with the pink and banding) i ended up switching out the dampers and maintenance station. the problem persisted...
Hey guys! So recently I was doing some maintenance on my VP300I as one of the manifolds for the head were broken on the damper for yellow. Like a idiot, I disconnected the ribbon cables to the head while the machine was still "On" it was in sleep but it went right over my head to properly turn...
We have a Gerber Edge FX with a printhead pixel starting to go out. We have had this problem with an Edge, Edge II and with the Edge FX about 3-4 times in the past 12 years and I have always been able to avoid the absurd (to me at least) process and expense for buying one from Gerber. Between...
Hello all
in a bit of trouble with my sp540i. Long story short I starved the MY channels when installing new cartridges and after breaking the manifold nipple when pulling some ink through I got it working again for then the CK channels went bad overnight, got worse and then nothing thereafter...
So I recently purchase a used Roland sp300-v in great condition. So here where things get interesting. It keeps printing streaks in the design. I did a powerful wash then a head soak didn’t improve the conditions. So in the test print magenta was missing a lot of lines I’ll try to upload it...
I'm a newbie to the printing world. I purchased an HP l25500 to give us a feel as to if we should commit to having a wide format printer. The machine works fine but for some reason I'm getting horizontal banding on my prints. I did a few print head cleanings, and it has helped but I think I...
Hi all
I have a Roland SC545ex I purchased with clogged dx4 heads. I cleaned the heads with a sonic cleaner using Branson EC Electronic Solution (circuit card sonic cleaning solution). Although it seems it was a success, the ser. no. was cleaned off. Will versa-works tell me the ser. no. of the...
Hi all,
So I am in the market for a new print head for my unicorn VJ-1618. The manual has a part number of DG-41914 (eco solvent). I can google as good as the next guy but some listings say "Mutoh VJ-1618 1624 1638 Printhead" but I know they are different; in addition its a month shipping. To...
I have a strange issue with my xc-540. It's been sitting for a while unfortunately, maybe a year. It's been plugged in and every few months I do a full manual cleaning.
Here's the issue:
I'm trying to prepare it to sell but I need everything up and running. 3 out of 6 of my print heads I...
Hi Guys I have been having endless issues with my xc-540 this week firstly I kept getting sheet set error finally after a few days changing different things I changed the sensor and it worked fine however my issue is now I am not getting and Magenta or Cyan after multiple cleans etc nothing...
Hello all -
Looks like we have lost almost a full black ink channel in one of our 1624's. Has anyone here replaced a head by themselves before - and do you think this is what needs to be done? We just put in a new maintenance station around a month ago. Nozzle check comes back great with the...
Morning! I have attached a test print. Does anyone know the cause of this?
Thought it might be the cap top so I changed the cap top for a lightly used one I had lying around. I made sure the lines to the pump are clear, did a manual clean and a couple of medium cleans. It cleared up a little...
Hello, I recently purchased the Mimaki CJV-30-60 primarily for T Shirt Vinyls and small stickers. I bought this exactly one month after buying the Roland SP540v which was my first ever printer/cutter. It was the first time I ever had any experience with a printer cutter combo.
Now being very...
