Question Roland True Vis

[chaz design]

Hi,
Just wanted to see if any one is having issues printing with Roland TrueVis VG-640 on Avery 1105 ez/rs. When material starts to roll on the take up reel, the image (dark colors) start to stick on the back part of the paper. If there is any one that can give me a tip on how to avoid this, I would much appreciate it. Thanks

Make sure your post heater is cranked all the way up. If it's really humid where you are you might want to invest in a dehumidifier but I would check the levels first to see if you are within spec for the machine.. Going too dry causes static issues.

I have my heat all the way up, and have tried different settings, but no luck.

You could also try another profile that would put down less ink. Also, switch to a slower print mode to give the vinyl more time over the dryer would help as well.

I have contacted Roland a few times and havent heard back from them, they were supposed to let me know how to solve this problem and no response. I have a xc540 and never had an issue, was hoping to have similar experience with this machine. Also having issues with color turning white when stretched lightly.

The ink formula is different for the TruVis so that would explain the difference between the XC540 and it. I have seen some people setup box fans in front of the printer but beware of dust!

I have a Truevis 540, I must say I would NEVER load an avery product into it. I am not much help, although I had the drying problems many times with the old vp540, never once with the vg.
