  1. What's Stopping My Print? Roland BN20A

    The BN-20 series are USB only. That's why I'm questioning the use of ethernet...
  2. What's Stopping My Print? Roland BN20A

    Agree that the adapter is possibly ok. The bigger question for me is why use it at all, unless the computer is so far away from the printer that a USB cable can't be used.
  3. What's Stopping My Print? Roland BN20A

    Replace the ethernet-USB adapter. It sounds like a data loss.... Is there a reason you aren't connecting it directly to the USB port on the computer?

  7. Need Help Roland Sp540v Servo board replace

    Ziyaad messaged me about an old thread I posted about a fix I implemented on an SP-540 where the platen fans never turned off. Based on a suggestion from a local tech in his area, this is a possible workaround. He has obtained a power supply for the fans themselves. The fans can be hooked up...
  8. Need Help Color shifted mid print and can’t get it back

    Hopefully you kept the old head. If it's a cracked nipple, as suggested by Netsol, you can use the manifold from that head. Also, a tip on filling dampers - hold the damper upside down when filling it, as you can get more ink in the damper. If the ink level in the damper is too close to the...
  9. Need Help Color shifted mid print and can’t get it back

    It looks like you are missing the entire cyan channel and the light cyan looks like it has issues. You should print the fill test in service mode. That will tell you a lot more. Look for banding while printing and look at the edges of each color after printing. The edges should be crisp, not...
  10. Flush Roland SP-540v

    OP's printer is an SP-540V, not a VS. As others have suggested, do the head wash 2 times, but then clip off the 2 cap lines, fill the caps with cleaning solution, park the heads and unplug the printer, leaving the cleaning cartridges in the printer. This will clear the ink and also keep the...
  11. The Flex cable on the Roland Versacamm SP 540v

    Also verify the length is the same. The length is the critical dimension for proper operation of the cable movement during printing.
  12. The Flex cable on the Roland Versacamm SP 540v

    I'm assuming you have found OEM flex guides somewhere, as they are very rare. Hopefully you still have the originals. I would verify the length and hole spacing is the same on the new guides as on the original. If they're not an exact match, this could be your issue. You can easily modify the...
  13. The Flex cable on the Roland Versacamm SP 540v

    Verify your installation using the attached guide.
  14. Help

    True, as a fuse is a fuse, as long as they are the same blow rating. Roland finally figured it out on later models and used sockets. Unfortunately, the pad spacing won't allow a retro fit to sockets on the SP-300. Your idea is the best for these older models with soldered fuses.
  15. Help

    Another option is to solder the correct new fuse on top of the old one without removing it. Removing and replacing the old fuse is difficult to access without accidently touching the hot iron to surrounding components, especially the connectors.
  16. IC Check Slot 1 Error

    SP300V only runs under the 5.x.x series.
  17. IC Check Slot 1 Error

    Send me your email by Conversations. I have the .rml for the stock profiles (16) for the SP-300V. It's too big for uploading here. I'll send it to you by a file transfer site.
  18. IC Check Slot 1 Error

    Your link is just an info page. You should be able to get profiles by going to your Versaworks tab in your start menu and clicking on the Online Update. It will take you to a window where you should be able to access a button to download profiles.
  19. SP-300V scan motor replacement tips

    Did you clean and lube the head carriage guide rail? If so and you're still getting random errors, then it's a simple swap repair. Then run scan and cutter aging in service mode. Probably one of the easiest repairs you can do on this printer.
