Roland SP300V Sleep Interval Purging

There is no way to change the time lapse or timeframe when the printer wakes up to do a cleaning once it's asleep, or if you have turned off the sub power and left for the night. You can check to see how long of a timeframe until the printer goes to sleep (refer to your user manual page 75). Once in sleep mode, I tought it was usually about every 6 to 8 hours passed before it would wakeup and do a little cleaning cycle, but that was using OEM Roland inks. 3rd party inks cause the printer to perform more cleaning cycles vs OEM inks in a 24 hour period time.

There is no or has there ever been a password setup on your Roland. I suspect that the tech went into "Service Mode", rather I know he had to in order to properly install the head.

Just me .02

 

I've had the same problem. It got 90% better after replacing the head caps but I don't know if the two are related.
