Hello, This is my first post here! Thanks to everyone for all the helpful information I've found. Ghosting I recently did a head replacement on a VP-540 (it was the black head), and after the replacement, there was some 'ghosting' (that's the only word I can think of that makes sense). I'll...

This is a fun one. We're in the middle of a full wrap on a big food truck. About half of it was printed, when our 12 year old Roland XC-540 took a dump. Needs parts and a tech can't get to us for a while. It's looking like we're gong to need to finish the job on our 2 year old Roland True Vis...

Hello everyone. I seem to have just developed this new problem with my Versacamm SP 300i. I'll attach a picture on the end (might have to click the link to be redirected to it). I'm trying to print and cut names for namebars and if I print the file so that it comes out horizontal and is short...

Our old Roland XC-540 is giving an error notification every time I hit setup. SCAN MOTOR ERROR CODE: 0080 0080. Tried a limit initialization. No changes. I tried to slide the carriage across with my hand, and while I could move it, it feels like there's way more resistance than usual. Any...

Hi I have a roland sj-640 ex and I can't seem to get black working to it full potential, I've done a full manual clean, all the cleans in the settings, changed all of the cap tops, and ran a heap of test prints where I found black yellow and cyan all need work to get them to 100% What should I...

My Roland RF-640 printer stopped in the middle of a printing run. I turned the machine off and now the printer will not turn back on. Any Help is Greatly appreciated.

Hey everyone! Just got a new Roland VG2 54" and it's AMAzing. I'm using Arlon 4500 GLX for stickers, but am looking for something thicker. A couple of years ago Arlon made something thicker, grey on the back, w/air release, but then they discontinued it. Does anyone know what that thicker...

We are getting scan motor error on our LEF 300 and carriage gets stuck on the left. Printer has only 100 hours on it. Anyone else have this issue?

We have had problems with the encoder strip and had to have replaced. 2 months later...Now throwing a scan motor error. The machine is also saying the cover is open (it’s not) and we can’t print. Has anyone experienced anything similar? We are being told that the cover open has been know to...

We have an old but very great Roland SolJet XC-540. There's a spot on the printer about about 12" in. Whenever the carriage passes over this spot, the blade toggles up and down a couple times. It isn't dragging over the print or messing up the ink while printing, but it goes up and down, so...

Ok I'm sick of my colors not popping the way they should. Does anyone have some tips or links for building or getting great profiles? I need some "for dummies" type step by step type stuff for this. I print all day, but don't know much at all about level adjustments or quality settings, or how...

Hi guys I am new to the sign making world and to print and cut machines. Getting on well so far learning myself as I go. So noticed after doing quite a few print, laminate and cut stickers that there is always a part of the sheet where the knife hasn't cut through properly, you notice when...

Hello, we are printing on Roland and cutting on a Summa. When cutting nested jobs the order it cuts is so random it causes issues when perf / flex cutting. In general the flex cut feature cuts random. We would prefer it cut in the same order as our Rolands. Is there a setting that forces cuts to...

Hi, due too little space I need/want Print and Cut in one unit.. for sign and stickers print.. Im looking at Roland TrueVis VG2 or Mimaki JVC 150 series...(or is there any other brand out there?) Does someone have pros / cons on these -Thank you -

We just retired our Roland printer but still have a Roland plotter. Other two printers we have use Onyx Thrive RIP. Can't get this to work for our Roland plotter. Briefly had it almost working except double cut everything. Anyone else have this issue? Techs seemed stumped. Hate to have to...

We are using a Roland 54 inch. When we print from Versaworks blacks are great. We use 60/60/40/100. When we print the same job out of Flexi PM using several profiles we just can't get rich blacks. Any suggests or settings that could help. There are so many settings and just not enough literature...
