Okay so I have started seeing numerous errors (see title) when starting the machine the last few days. Normally a few lifts off the lever to reset will get things going. Though sometimes it takes 10+ times for it to read the sheet size. Seems to be getting worse. What I have noticed is that...

Font looks familiar but I can't seem to figure it out.

So I notice every so often that for some reason I get a white fish eye when printing red. Doesn't seem to happen on others colors. Or at least not enough that it is a concern. But happens enough when printing red that it does concern me since reprints are often required. It would seem the...

So this is odd. My "metallic silver" I use looks kind of tan on my screen. No big deal since it prints correctly. If I "send to approval" tool it still is tan looking on the approval screen. Oddly if I download the file from the cloud it looks silver as it should in this "new" file. Color is...

Anyone know any good high temperature material? Either for die-cutting or eco-sol inks? The highest stuff I carry is good for about 225F but have customers all the time requesting stuff for 300F+. Can't seem to find anything that hot except for material for like small roll labels.

So I have been using a few different profiles for years. The problem is some print blues purple, some print reds orange, some print grays all distorted. I can't seem to find a single profile that works for all colors. The best I have that does everything 90% correct is a Orajet 3641 profile...

I don't print large decals that often but when I do it seems there are always problems. The material seems to get wavy the further down roll. So this cause inconsistent colors and head strikes on the material. I use media clamps and roll out excess before starting the print. Attached shows...

So I know about profiles causing colors shades to be off but what would be causing on certain spots to have a magenta tint to them? Say I print a sheet full of the same decals that are silver, some in the middle and edge are more pink than others. While some look just fine. Using Flexi but...

I've had this problem for some time now which normally pulling it out and re-inserting it a few times will remedy the situation. But a few weeks ago I had to reinsert the cartridge about 25 times before it finally noticed it was in there. Replaced two in the last day and didn't have too much...

So I finally got the machine to print correctly yesterday. Come into my office today and it's beeping the 110 error. So I figure maybe the encoder is dirty so I clean it. No change. Replace the reader/eye (since I just so happen to have one laying around) still no go. I hadn't even tried to...

I replaced my head since the black was deflecting. Now there is a thin fuzzy red/purple edge around the black (didn't have this problem before). Haven't noticed it anywhere else except when printing black onto white. Multiple files are this way. Haven't changed profiles (that I know of since...

So I am STILL working on getting this machine (VS-640) up and running. Day after day I run into a new issue once one problem is fixed it's on to another. They all seem to stem from the original problem with color drop out. The machine has been sitting for about a month due to a broken tab on...

So this has been an issue for a while...pretty much as long as I can remember. Normally just try to avoid printing fine detail that is black and red. My machine had some dithering on the black forever so thought that may be causing it. Replaced the head and it didn't help. Seems like there...

Just when I think I got this machine going (been trying to get it right since October) I run into more problems. Roland VS-640. Finally got the machine where it printed fine 2 weeks ago when doing a bunch of test prints. Then last night decided to do a large print and the trouble started...

So I got a new main board but from what I understand the only way to get the settings transferred is through the peck6 software which I don't have. Anyway to do this?

So I just bought a new head since that "had" to be the solution to my problem only to find out that didn't fix anything. So now I have 2 used heads that I am guessing work just fine but now one is out of the machine and full of ink. What is the proper way to store this head? Or is it just...

See attachment. Been having all kinds of problems trying to get this machine back up (this is the latest). Finally traced the problem down to the board needing repaired. After the repair the head prints now but magenta is spraying everywhere. The test print shows me printing just a black...

VS-640 wouldn't "cut sheet" so I decided to the the LIMIT POSITION & CUT DOWN POSITION INITIALIZE procedure. But when I do this the tool carriage is VERY hard to separate from the head carriage. From what I understand when doing this procedure the magnet should let go so the tool carriage...

I've had my SP-300V for many years and it has been great (for the most part). I decided to compliment it with a used VS-640. It came from a reputable dealer and all prints well at first. But then about 13 inches in the yellow starts to drop. I printed once, and didn't catch it at first but...

This is really weird and in many years of printing I have never seen this. I have a file that has always printed fine but today when I print it looks like it is not printing certain layers of the file. It previews fine in the file and even in production manager but what comes out it nothing...
