ColesCreations, I would NOT use hot lam on vinyl, especially coated vinyl. Pressure sensitive works best. For longer-term outdoor use, we recommend printing on the Epson with two cut lines, about a ½" apart. After printing, cut both lines on the GX-24 (or cutter with an Optical Eye)...

darklight, The Roland GX-24 comes with CutStudio, which allows you to print, using Illustrator or Corel, to the Epson (with crop marks) and then cut the graphic on the GX-24. Epson's Ultrachrome inks are waterproof and UV resistant. They will hold up very well outside. I'd laminate...

signage, I'm with you. I've been a heavy Windows user since 3.1, now on XP Pro, and have never had a virus. I'm online 6-10 hours a day (work and home combined) and I rarely turn my home PC off. I have WinPatrol for cookie alerts, home page alerts and new software alerts and have never had a...

Lighthouse, How do you change the roller tension?

The chart appears to be for the SP-540V

The Roland printer warranty is only valid if Roland OEM inks are used in the equipment. Here is a line from their recent upgrade to two-year on printers other than the VersaCAMMs. "The Two-Year Trouble-Free Warranty covers parts and labor for all Roland Inkjet products except the VersaCAMM SP...

make edit, Both the Roland and Epson printers will stop when an ink is OUT. Simply change the cartridge and printing will resume, usually with no ill effects. Even my Epson 2200 (13 x 19 format) at home will stop, allow me to change the empty and will resume printing the file. On the...

There won't be a huge difference in ink usage from 360dpi to 720dpi but speed will suffer if you choose the higher resolution.

SignMate was made for Roland by Scanvec-Amiable. It is not compatable with Windows beyond 2000 (according to my reliable sources).

Careful about random cleanings. Medium and Powerful should be used judiciously! You should call Roland, get the name of the closest dealer and have it done right before you fry the heads. NEVER insert cleaning carts or ink during a set-up unless the machine asks you to insert. It is a...

Do a complete pump up including the cleaning cartridges. You'll need two for an SP-300V. Perform this as though you just got a new printer and follow the menu prompts, which should also be in the User Manual so you can follow the steps. This procedure is very important. Assuming you paid...

Steve, The vinyl will melt and gum up the drill if you try the drill press. The adhesive may also present a problem when heated by the drill. Let us know your final method.:Cool 2:

When we sell a VersaCAMM (or any printer) we recommend that the stand is removed and set up where the printer will ultimately sit. Then 4 people should carry the printer to the stand with another person lining it up on the stand and putting in the bolts that hold the printer on the stand. Most...

What cutter, etc.? Sounds like it could be too much blade showing. Remember you are only cutting through a few mils (thousands) of material so only part of the blade tip should be showing. Call your dealer and they should have you cutting perfectly in a few minutes. Good luck and keep us...

Steve, I sent you an email with details but you can move the inside rollers away from the silver marks on the roller carraige and they won't come down when the medial clamp lever is lowered. As mentioned, only use the inside rollers for banner or canvas and don't rewind the material until the...

What printers come with a built-in RIP?

Thanks for the tip on partitioning (or not).

Brian, Excellent point. I usually partition my large externals to 100 gig sections. This may help speed up the processing time when pointing the RIP to a specific "drive" or partition. Mac34, Though I am tempted by the new Intel Macs, I have never had a virus on a Wintel box and I do not...

All the Oracal laminate I've seen is reverse wound. It's hard to tell if yours is reverse wound. You should not have to flip the belt. Just have the lam come off the top of the feed roll with the release liner going directly to the take-up reel. Feel free to call to discuss this. Randy...

Daige QM4 Mark, The easiest way to use Oracal on the Daige, which I love, is to put the lam on the top roll and have the material feed from the TOP of the roll. The liner goes directly to the take-up reel and the lam feeds under the take-up reel and directly over the top silicone roll...
