These lines have been showing up in my prints sometimes. Doesn't seem to happen when printing rows of stickers or things like that. But if the print is a large (usually dark?) area, like an expensive vehicle wrap, these show up at the darndest times. This is on a Roland True-Vis VG-540. We...

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...

I work at a place with a very old but very awesome Roland XC-540 that's been having some issues. We're located in a rural community 5 hours from the nearest city so getting a tech out here to work on our printers is rare and can be expensive. With that said, I am not a mechanic. If it's not in...

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...

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...

I was just gifted two unused 54" rolls of Micro Perf. There's no markings or branding anywhere on the tubes, but I was told one is for vehicle windows and the other is for storefront windows. The holes on one roll are slightly bigger than the other. Do you know which is which? Thanks

"Upgraded" printers and the new one uses Dual, as opposed to the old machine that worked on VersaWorks. on the old one, you could select as many files as you like and drag them directly into the queue. But with VersaWorks Dual, you can't drag any files into the queue. you need to select FILE...

Good Morning, Do you use a different profile for each type of media you print on? Do you have any across-the-board profile types you recommend for optimal printing? Could different profiles be the answer to color specific banding? Have you found that generic (or random) profiles deliver...

I'm not very comfortable performing maintenance on the machine outside what's in the user manual. We're in a rural community 5 hours from the nearest distributor, so having a tech come help with stuff is too expensive. Does anybody have a link to a ho- to video for changing an encoder strip? Or...

My favorite part about the roland truevis vg-540, as an upgrade from the older models, is the TU2 setting. I'll print signs and vehicle wraps all day on the regular roll setting, then at the end of the day, set up a bunch of product labels (that have small text and print slower on a high quality...

Been having some banding issues on the Roland TrueVis Vg-540. Today when calibrating the machine, the correct setting was a moving target. it was set to ten, which had a little overlap. Twenty looked good so i dialed it up. Next test print, twenty had a little gap and ten looked right. Set it...

About 2 years ago i was hired and the company bought a truevis vg-540 to replace the soljet xc-540 as our primary machine. The soljet is about ten years old and has issues now, but the way the boss tells it, this machine has been incredibly reliable and easy to use getting great results with...

Hey y'all, I've been having issues with a Roland TrueVis VG-540. I keep seeing these nasty banding lines, that will appear exclusively on certain parts of the graphic. Everything in a large logo will look great, but all the green parts will be banded. Sometimes all the grey parts. It doesn't...

Hey ya'll We had a power surge over the weekend, and now both of our roland printers are unable to connect to versaworks.Just focusing on the primary printer at the moment. On the PC, in IP config, the IP address is set to 192.168.0.1. However in network connection details, DHCP is enabled and...

we've been replacing cut blades at an alarming rate on our roland truevis vg-540. at first i thought it was due to too much pressure when cutting, but after replacing the strip, the blade, and dialing back the pressure, realized something else is breaking the blades. took a close look at the...
