  1. Any laser people out there? Using Lasercut 6.1?

    I am importing a Chicom laser and it is spec-ed out with LaserCut 6.1... but I cannot find almost nothing about 6.1 and it seems to have a different control board from 5.3- so not backward compatible. Anyone with knowledge to share? Thanks Gene
  2. Font I.D. please?

    WTF sez caslon antique but that has a distressed outline- is there a font with a smooth outline? Thanks Gene
  3. Wanted- GX-640 Roland

  4. FS GX-500 Roland plotter

    This about 3 yrs old- works well. It takes 54" material but will cut 49.5". We now have a 64" printer... so... if we could sell this we would buy a GX640. Gene
  5. Has S101 been down off and on the past couple days?

    Not sure if it is on my end or not. Vectric forum was unavailable for a day or so too. Thanks Gene
  6. Bulk ink systems for the new style roland with single large head

    And yes the big boys have two of the large heads- does any on have a system that works on these printers? Thanks Gene
  7. Is it possible to make a diagonal selection in Flexi?

    One of the things I was sad about loosing when we went from FlexiPro 5.7 to 7.x was the ability to do a diagonal selection- I don't recall exactly the key combo to do it now. We have a seat of FSP designer 12 now- has that ability ever come back. I was just needing it today and thought I would...
  8. Adhesive material that magnets will stick to?

    I am sure I have seen this somewhere (seems like one of the mag sheeting mfg?) for a dry erase board application. I can't come up with the proper search term. Thanks Gene
  9. Anyone with a VS configured with double cmyk ink?

    I have a RF which I believe to be a VS without the cut function and is always configured as 2xcmyk. I have a couple questions about the Versaworks printing of spot colors- has been driving me out what little mind I have left. Thanks Gene
  10. I need a 4.x version of VersaWorks please

    I have been going back and forth with Roland Tech for 6 weeks now on a problem where 5.2 (upgraded to 5.3) that came with my new RF printer is changing the cmyk values on some DP and DK and sometimes ST spot colors. They are now satisfied that it is not the printer but they cannot understand...
  11. Problems with DP and DK spot colors with latest VersaWorks?

    Is anyone else experiencing problems with some of the deep and dark spot colors- not all of them- the pr and st colors are good. I have been going around with Roland tech for 5 weeks and they seem to have given up. Thanks Gene
  12. How does 540x720 differ from 720x720?

    I have never understood how this works (360x720, 540x720, 1440x720 for instance). How do these differ from 360x360, 720x720 etc. I am trying to resurrect my old i1 pro (it actually did the diagnostic test fine- the resurecting would be digging the old info out of my brain). Thanks Gene
  13. Still more issues with VersaWorks and RVW spot colors

    So... some spots are sent to the printer wrong as below: Notice the difference between Library output and printer output
  14. More issues with Versaworks and Roland spot colors

    Picked a spot from our chart and got a completely different color... so started poking around in the file format section and then the spot color detail section and noticed this: (Pict) The Library Output is correct but the printer output is quite different. I have been checking different...
  15. Font identification, por favor

    The font id section of my brain is shrinking now that I don't use them on a regular basis. Thanks Gene
  16. Anyone have a PMS color chart with pms number and 'c' for coated?

    I would like to print a new PMS chart with my new printer/ink and noticed that there is a spot library for PMS c . I have not found a chart that has the colors named correctly. Gene
  17. Roland spot colors and how they work

    I use Vworks and I am pretty much happy with it. I have a RF and profiles are pretty scanty and very slow for this machine. We print almost exclusively Roland Spot colors and print only what we design. My spot colors are over saturated and dry slowly... my understanding is they are not...
  18. Cleaning RF640 and VS 540 + 640 print heads and wipers

    I have been running my RF pretty hard for a month (probably a dozen rolls of media) and it was still printing fine but I thought maybe I should do a cleaning on it. The wiper and wiper carriage were really gucked up... with stalactites of dried ink hanging from the carriage. The scraper was...
  19. Setup on wideformat Rolands without movable grit rollers?

    My VP has movable rollers so I could set where the registration marks printed (for the GX500 on 54" media it has to be 3" over on the left). The new RF doesn't have movable rollers... is there a way aside from setting the base point for each print to do this? Thanks Gene
  20. Versaworks tips, tricks, mods and inside info?

    So... is there any online info on how to tweek VW profiles to make them work better for you? I have a good profile for my RF-640 (printing on 54") that looks great but does not print as fast as my VP. This machine is cmykkymc and my understanding is it should be faster. Thanks Gene
