Supurb, Email me that file, if you want and I will print when I get up and running today and see what I get for color and grain. From there we will know if it is possible on these printers. Also your phone#, if you want and I can call and go over things. Too hard to do in emails. Heat...

Just a tidbit on SLB7. I tested some on outdoor backlits. They look great in the day and night and can be printed on waterbased or solvent printers but need to be laminated and the edges sealed with the laminate. Using a clear mounting adheasive you can adhear it to the lexan. If you...

Now that you have a couple profiles to try you should see a change in the color and now should match standard colors. You may need to play a bit with rendering intent and such. Keep it at perceptual for photo stuff and relative for most other stuff. The grain should also lessen and with the...

On the older Roland I have been told by one who has done it, that the generic ones that are longer than one might need but cheaper, can be cut down and make your own holes to mount and they worked once calibrated. You can flip them over and use the bottom half as well if that is in good shape.

They only cost $60 -$80 so just buy one. But they tend to be better when removing the vinyl and with it the residue comes with it. After the fact where its just residue it may not be as productive as chemicals would. Also you would need a long handle like tool to scrape once the residue was...

Again using Ecosol max ink it dried in a normal time. You could touch it 10 15 min later without issue. I tend to let dry over night and then apply the layer of 751, or any white with a clear adheasive can work. One thing the pet sheet stock causes is a lot of static when you remove the...

For a Pizza shop they had a vinyl laminated menu on the counter and taped down and looked like crap and showed wear easily being on the counter. I used some (pet film) plastic sheet stock which was a bit thinner than credit card thickness and it came in 4 x 8 sheets for about $20. This...

Could you offer window perf? There is also a poster vue (something like that) where it is a perf media but no adheasive. You could put it, on the inside of the window, however you would need tabs of adheasive to stick it on. When you have a cutout of a graphic on perf installed you can see...

You could try these but again they are not going to be as good as made profiles. They may help get you started. http://download.rolanddg.jp/en/rolandmedia/max/rcc/index.html

The head rank will be a hand written number on the side of the print head and some times on the top. It will not have letters in it just 5 digits. The reason to write them down is that when the heads are installed you usually can't see the number anymore. What profiles do is tell the printer...

The DX2 head is what you want. It is listed as a right and left in the Roland manuals but they are the same head. The price for these heads have gone up since the Japan quake. They also make a single black color head for the printers that just used CMYK. That head was always a bit cheaper so...

This is what to do:goodpost:. It will not hurt the printer as it thinks it's doing a pump up or ink change or whatever you might have hit in error. Most times it needs to finish that cycle and turning off the printer won't help. Also you would have a CJ500 converted to a SC500. The SJ is...

All I can offer for ideas would be to turn off the power again and unplug and remove all the head cable ribbons from all areas and put back in. This is a electronic data issue and most times cable related or worse. Cables may not be set right. If one of the ribbons has a bent wire and not in...

If you had done a "sheet cut" just before the print, it would only feed back up to that point. If you loaded the paper, set up the printer then printed you may not know just how much of the media was pre fed.

Update: Just wanted to update this post for others as it was not bad media nor dampers or ink issues or heat. Seems that the roll is just that heavy that when it had to feed media (even with flanges in the core) it caused the drop out look and fade lines. Just never noticed it happened when...

I don't think I read anything about what is the size of area that you have to draw from? Smaller towns may have 2-5 thousand people but might have a trading area of 10 to 50 thousand. Would the building be part of the deal or is that still going to be a rent thing. 54" printer is almost a...

Love it all but the wood grain is fantastic.

You may want to look at it this way.... Who might have left signs 101 in the last year or more that might want to come back and whirl the pot a bit? One that would know how things work and what buttons to push. I don't know for sure, but that's my gut feeling on this matter but I do like...

If the new rolls have thicker backing you might want to try to up the heat a bit and see if the pebble look goes away. That is what I would get on cal media when the heat is not up high enough. If that does not help then there may be a slight change in the media and you might need to try...

For sure when it was laminated to roll with print side out. Not sure if it could cause issues when not laminated to roll the other way. Are you talking more on air release media or vinyl in general?
