Hi everyone I've just had an Epson S60600 installed last week and although it's a lovely machine, I've soon realised I know nothing about it. Coming from a Roland printer, I automatically used Versaworks so that's all i've ever known, I've now had to come away from Versaworks and I decided to...

That's a good idea, I will try that. What kind of labels are you printing though? If I could do a short run of labels as you mentioned but actually show the customer ways of how they can use them, I feel I could get a better result.

Apologies, I was quickly posting while I had my wife in my ear. Yes label jobs. We have a small contract for cut vinyl car manufacturer stickers/labels and a few for sand blasting but other than that all of our printing is large format i.e vehicles. I'd like to have a steady run of labels I...

Hi I need to get more work and I would like to get more label jobs but for the life of me can't think what people use labels for. What labels do you do and for what industry? Thanks

I have an i1Pro2 and use versaworks. Basically you use the i1pro to read and limit the ink, once done you use i1profiler to create your profile. There is a lot more to it than that though and it's not a simple process. What are you using to design in? Illustrator, signlab? What colour mode...

Hi, no I didn't think of putting another print in, I'll try that tomorrow. If that is the case, is there anyway I can replace the first crop mark and it still work? I don't fancy printing it all again. Thanks

Hi everyone I've been trying to cut a printed graphic all afternoon and I'm getting an error. It finds the 1st crop mark fine, when is starts moving along to read the 2nd crop mark, it stops every 6 odd inches and moves the media goes back slightly, when it finally gets to the position of the...

All 4 dampers changed and brand new ink cartridges and yes there is ink in them. Cap top seems to be seating correctly and surely if it wasn't, I'd have issues on every colour? Since the head was fitted a week ago, I've had this 3 times, the last time took 2 medium cleans to clear, I feel like...

Hi all I've just had a new print head fitted a couple of days ago on my VS-640i printer. I'm not sure if i'm going crazy but since it was fitted, it heats up before doing a test print, I'm sure it never did that before, should it do this? Also, I'm not sure if i'm looking too closely at it...

Replace the damper, there should be no ink running out of it and I think that will solve your issue. Remember to turn the choke on before changing it, You can do it through a service mode or do it manually, I don't know the service mode route so take the cover off the back where the inks are...

Can the dampers go in the wrong way? I've attached a picture of my type of damper and other than installing it upside down which I didn't think you could do, does it matter what side it's facing? The two parts at the top that fill with ink and the round bit at the bottom, if it faced towards...

Anyone? I just don't understand why I can get it back then it goes after a few cleans again.

Hi all I have a problem with my Duel CMYK Roland VS-640i. I have a perfect nozzle pattern on all my patterns except both Cyans, 1 cyan has one deflected nozzle (Nothing major and can cope with that) but the other cyan is pretty much useless. The VS-640i has only one head and has pretty light...

The reason what made me start this was because of banding. I've just printed on high quality and I still get banding, so I print a feed test and it's past -50 (can't go even further as it maxes it out that) and it's currently set on -10. How can it be this far out?

Jim Hill On the VSi it's just one capping station and it wasn't genuine and neither was the pump. I'll purchase genuine ones and try again and let you know how I get on. Could it be anything to do with the wipers? I changed these and they were genuine but the felt one hasn't been changed for...

I changed the captop last week because of it and it didn't make any difference. I suppose I'll just have to get used to printing at high quality.

Hi all I have a roland VS-640i, I'm getting deflected nozzles and a few missing nozzles in cyan. I've done normal cleans, I've done manual cleans but they do not come back and the deflected nozzles remain the same. I've also put cleaning fluid in the capping station and and left for 24 hours...

Hi Does anyone have a service manual for the Roland vs-640i? I would like to change the dampers? Thanks

VanderJ Thank you, I thought 1440 x 1440 and unidirectional was the best this printer could do but looking at older threads talking about passes and mine goes no where near 20 passes and mine is the updated model over the VS-640. I'm doing a few internal stuff that will get scrutinised, I'm...

Evening As the title says, how do I get the best possible print from my Roland VS-640i printer regardless of print speed? I'm using Roland Versaworks 6 and I read in some old posts regarding a VS-640 that they managed to print using 20 passes, the highest I can find is a 10 pass? I was also...
