  1. Our Seal 62 Base will not run in normal mode.

    Hi Dan, Did you get your Seal 62 Base laminator working? What did you end up doing? I have one and it will not work at all, thinking it may be the sensor.
  2. SP-540V Ink Line Replacement

    Jim, you were 100% correct, I replaced the M/Y head and my SP540V is printing great again. I also pulled (flushed) cleaning fluid through all 4 ink lines and installed 4 new dampers. Thank you!
  3. SP-540V Ink Line Replacement

    Jim, here you go. It took me a while to get into the Service Mode, 3 photos of the test pattern fill (right, middle, and left side), and the test print made right after. The blotchy print is because I am using an very old 54" wide roll of 3165 vinyl, however the magenta is showing some...
  4. SP-540V Ink Line Replacement

    Jim, ok. Does the fill test use a lot of ink, should I install new carts? Also, if I install new carts for the Fill Test, after that can I put the used carts back in the printer and apply foil tape over the punctured opening on the carts to save for later? In general, what is your advice about...
  5. SP-540V Ink Line Replacement

    Hi Jim, I think I have a ink starvation issue with my magenta print head, the nozzle test print looks perfect, however, when printing a larger image with my SP540V, it is printing correctly until the far left side of the image and then the magenta would drop out (you can see it in the gray camo...

  9. 3' x 12' Acrylic sign panel for a lighted sign

    I don't understand this: "Printing on both the laminate and the translucent is my go-to method for these types of faces" I thought the clear over aminate provides the UV protection so the ink printed on the translucent vinyl does NOT fade, printing on top of the laminate would defeat this?
  10. 3' x 12' Acrylic sign panel for a lighted sign

    Thanks for the info. I have a Roland SP540V and only prints CMYK, I have never printed on clear because my printer doesn't print white ink, I have a roll of Orajet 3850, so if I double print the color graphics on the white 3850, laminate, and then apply to the white translucent Polycarbonate...
  11. 3' x 12' Acrylic sign panel for a lighted sign

    OK, Thanks, I did find that Grimco sells the 3/16" Polycarbonate plastic by the foot from the roll. They only have it in the translucent white, will that work and still be translucent using the Orajet 3850 with digitally printed graphics and laminated applied to the entire surface of the sign...

  15. Cyan printing light blue?

    Thanks for the help, I did 3 regular cleanings and printed six 3" x 28" solid CYAN purge blocks and the CYAN came back to full color. I don't know what the problem was, but I am glad it is resolved...
  16. Cyan printing light blue?

    I have a Roland SP540V, using Roland Eco-Sol Max inks and using VersaWorks 5.3.2 and although I get a really good nozzle test print, all four colors with just a 1 slight deflection in the CYAN, the cyan is printing as a light blue, not a true CYAN blue. I have printed out several large solid...

  19. Does anyone know a trick to print a gray image without a green tint?

    The image was created as an RGB (Adobe 1998) in Photoshop, converted to TIFF, and imported into Illustrator so I could add a ConTour cut layer on top and then saved it as a PDF to send to VersaWorks and printed on my SP540V.
  20. Does anyone know a trick to print a gray image without a green tint?

    You are correct, it is the Jedi emblem however the customer wanted me to create the 3D-looking image with another Star Wars emblem on top of it with the red outline, so I can't just convert the image to grayscale because of the red outline. The gray areas are printing with a greenish cast? The...
