  1. Need Help Error

    So, where does Gerber fit into this? Or does it? What height is your plotter reporting? What height does your software report from the plotter?
  2. Need Help VersaCAMM VS-420 - Wrong Printhead Installed???

    Either the head is damaged, incorrect or it is wired up wrong. I can't help with the first two, but here's how the cables need to go. There are 3 of one type and one of a different type - contacts are on opposite sides of the cable. The oddball cable is #3. The coil spring will be needed to...
  3. FC8600 what a gem

    I love how something can work "fine" for 5 years and all of the sudden something doesn't go quite right and now the plotter's "a pig". It sounds as if the scale is off for some reason. Is it just this file or are all jobs doing this now? What media are you printing on? Is the liner slick? Is...
  4. HR Dept says we're not "essential"

    Being essential doesn't give you free reign to be stupid. You can't still do things as you've always done them. We've changed several of our policies and procedures to reduce contact with others. - No one comes in the shop to pick up will call orders, they call it in and we set it outside. Our...
  5. HR Dept says we're not "essential"

    A letter we received from the ISA makes the case pretty clearly: March 25, 2020 Dear NASSD Members: The International Sign Association has provided the below language to various state organizations and federal agencies urging them to include sign and graphics companies as “essential...
  6. XC-540 Heater won't turn off. Help!

    Hey Kieran, The heater control board is under the front apron. You could have a stuck solenoid on that board. Good luck and stay safe, Joe
  7. Roland SG-540 error 0380 (0001)

    Hi Tony, SG heads are different, but I think they're easier than DX4 heads as there's no mechanical adjustments other than making sure the head is installed all the way down and flat with the carriage (which is the trick with these). But it may be simpler than that. If the pumps keep trying...
  8. Onyx GamaPrint or Onyx Thrive?

    I don't remember as it's been a long time for me to use Gamma Print, but if I remember right, its little niceties like better control over panels - things like that. Yes, you can get by with out them and print a lot of stuff, but life is easier with those things. I looked quickly and couldn't...
  9. Question sp540v motors

    Nope
  10. Onyx GamaPrint or Onyx Thrive?

    Upgrade to Thrive. Gamma Print is a minimal RIP and you'll run into "How to" questions sooner than later where the answer would be to Upgrade to Thrive. Do it now and you won't be sorry. Good Luck
  11. Need Help My print head might not be firing...

    The ink on the heads shorted out something. Hopefully a fuse, but imho, probably the printhead. You should have a couple of fuses on the main board. Check them with an Ohm meter to see if they're still good. If not replace the bad one. (Buy extras for troubleshooting at this point) If it...

  13. Print ( GREY ) without spot color ?

    2 things come to mind... 1. Your profile is designed for viewing outdoors and you're viewing them under fluorescent light. Try viewing your greys outside and see if the change in lighting improves the gray. 2. You need to linearize your profile. This will balance out your CMY levels to be more...

    That'll keep 'em away!:confused:
  15. Dont know about you, but my buisiness just stopped

    Our tech inbox will typically have 6 -12 emails in it overnight on any given day. This morning, just one. Our California branches have shut down to comply with local and state orders, but our other branches are open and trying to ship material into covered areas. Out tech team is working from...
  16. One-two punches seem to abound....

    Hang in there everyone. (easily said as it's bright and sunny here in the beautiful Pacific NW) We'll all come out the other side of this a little stronger.
  17. Need Help Disinfectants suitable for laminated graphics

    It would probably have some dependency on the specific laminate, so any testing should be done with your laminate. I would also advise the customer that the products have not been tested long term with any disinfectants. Alcohol may have been tested by the manufacturer though. I would check...

    They pop right up for me. Have you rebooted?
  20. Vinyl wrap refrigerator or kitchen cabinets?

    Nice. I did the fridge in our camp trailer with a picture of Crater Lake on it - it bridged the freezer and fridge doors. That was a few years ago and a different trailer and I no longer have a picture on my phone.
