I had that same problem when I had that model, replaced the caps, issue was resolved.

Did you pull/syringe ink or do a cleaning before the test print?

For what it is worth, I had the same scenerio last year. Decided to upgrade from a SP-300v to a 54" or larger, but looking for a Roland only. Also studio space was a concern, and we outsourced the minmal work we had that was larger then the 28" offered on the 300. Was debating the cost/options...

What machine do you have? In the first pic, the magenta in B may indicate a clogged damper. I've had that happen before on a vp-540. Do you have the correct cables in their correct slots?

No the vinyl isn't seperating, it just bunches up. I did however change the the rubber roller as Hog suggested, and it still does it. I think it may be a defective roll of vinyl as I tried other 30" rolls of material and doesn't appear to be doing it at all. (The possible defect is the roll has...

Anyone come across a problem like this? I have a VP-540, printing on a 30 inch roll of vinyl. On the left pinch roller, the vinyl seems to bunch up around it, and roll up as it advances, causing the head to strike the raised vinyl. Tried a different roll of vinyl, and still seems to be doing it...

Yeah, never had one that size. I was at a VWorks seminar awhile back, and Roland mentioned that a 2GB file was the max file accepted in Versaworks, however that was a couple versions ago.

Depending on what software your using, move the contour cut line to compensate. I've had to do this several of times using Flexi with perfect results.

I have a copy of ColorRip if you need it.

What does the test pattern look like? Have you done more than one, and if so, is the black the same each time?

I had that problem with contour cutting on a Roland sp-300V, No matter what I did to try to fix it. However, to compensate, I moved the contour cut line over in Flexi, and worked like a charm when I print/cut.

Looking for a reliable place/source to order/overnight/pickup some Head Adapters (black manifolds dampers plug into) for a solvent DX4 printheads, and possibly some other parts. Thanks in advance.

Had the Same problem. Bad transistor on the main board was the culprit.

SP-300V Had the same problem, replaced the ribbon cable, worked fine afterwards.

I had the same problem on a sp300, which I believe has the same board. I even did a post about it here on signs101. As soon as the sub power was turned on, the fuse popped. After the fuse popped, I took the board in and had it wired for a removable fuse, then plugged it back in and it popped...
