As Usual SFR - Thanks for the instant information!. I hear the fan running and at variable speeds, however it seems like the "vacuum" suction along the print strip is somewhat weak? I will look in the service manual and see if there is a filter or a procedure for cleaning the vacuum circuit...

Hello Folks, Is there a "Vacuum" setting or adjustment on the SC/CJ-500 ? The print area appears to have holes in it that would function as a vacuum, however I see no setting or information in the service manual that refers to it? thanks!

thanks for the suggestions - what do you all use as a media for basic outdoor decals & stickers?

Hey Folks, What do you all suggest as the "recommended" vinyl for making exterior/outdoor use decals? I am in the process of designing some number plate decals for a few of my friends' offroad Dirt Bikes. I am printing using a Roland Soljet sc-500 Using Eco-Sol Max Inks. thanks! -todd

Correct - Flexi-10 is unable to load any of the older customized ICC's - I need to downgrade my flexi to 8.1 or obtain a copy of Colorchoice and thus be able to load and utilize the customized output profile ICC's roland has available for use with the converted printer. -t

hi, thanks for the input - the printer has been upgraded to the sc-500 and has the proper lines, wipers, etc… I will try bumping the pre & post heaters up to 95 or so and see what the result is. -todd

I am trying to track down a copy of colorchoice, roland no longer offers it on their site... Anyone here have a link where I can download a copy? thanks! -t

Mad, Thanks greatly for sending me in the proper direction. If I select "Use color correction" from the dropdown, I do get the color setting's button to "ungrey". I can go in an select the rendering intent as you describe, however I have no profiles listed in the "Output Profile" dropdown...

Hello Folks, I am now in the process of attempting to get the print output on my sc500 acceptable. I am unable to load any known output profile into my copy of flexi-10, attempting to load any of the roland supplied profiles (that were made for colorchoice) results in the icc profile failing...

Hello Folks, I am in the process of just starting to print out some replacement "roadrunner" decals for a friend of mine who is repainting his car. I am printing using a soljet-500 Using roland eco-solv max as the ink. My question is: What do you folks recommend as my best vinyl &...

Udate I am using Flexi/production manager 10.0.1: I also went to rolands site for the Roland certified profiles (http://download.rolanddg.jp/en/rolandmedia/max/rcc/sc/index.html) and attempted to download and install a generic PVC profile for Super Photo and I get the exact same results...

Hello Folks, I recently acquired a cs500 & flexi-10. and I have a couple basic Flexi questions hopefully someone can point me in the proper direction. 1) A user here sent me a couple ICC files to use with cs500 & Lyson Ink. I Appear to be unable to load the ICC's he sent. I am attempting...

Success! Hello Folks, I have successfully managed to get all the printheads unclogged, primed, printing nearly 100% Here is what I finally did to get it going: I went through each damper and drew ink all the way through, keeping the suction on it for a a minute or so after the ink came all...

Where is the Firmware version displayed - and I'll check. Yes the previous owner was using the Lyson 2000 inks in it and I was going to go with them. I would greatly appreciate the profiles. I was also thinking of trying the "JetBest" Inks. A fried of mine uses them in his VersaCamm and has...

Thanks Everyone for the time and effort to answer all of my questions. I will comply with the suggestions, checking the capping station, and drawing ink from the separate caps with the heads properly parked. The carts are refill carts using Nazdar inks - They are each approximately 1/3 full...

The capping station was brand new when I received this printer, the sponges were clean white and all the drain lines on it were clear. There is ink ejecting through both ink drain lines from the bottom of the capping station out into the drain bottle. Can you please detail what else you...

Hello All, the blank lines were indeed being caused by the RIP, I was still running in demo mode. I will proceed with the damper replacement, and head cleaning as has been outlined here, and I will report my progress. Thanks to everyone for the nearly instant assistance.. It'll be great once...

Blank Lines in the printed output.. Thanks for the unclogging suggestions... I will pick up some cleaning solution, and new dampers for the Magenta & Light Magenta. Is it ok to push the cleaning solution into the head using a syringe and tube going directly to the nipple that the damper plugs...
