  1. Roland SP540v Print Cut Registration problem

    200 grams of force is really high (unless your laminating the print before cutting), usually the force is in the range of 50-75 for vinyl. If your using 200g on just vinyl, that would tell me your blade is dull. Have you ran the print/cut adjustment? Under the "Cutting" menu/ Print/Cut Adj./...
  2. Versaworks SP300V - Increase Ink?

    Max Density is used when linerizing a profile. Try Max Impact, if you need more saturation try overpinting, or a different profile. my .02 GTSTech_1
  3. Roland sp-300v helpppp

    meInelpat, You have a bad captop.
  4. Temperature too low?

    Did you enter the correct head id (head rank)for the new printhead? You mentioned you replaced a repaired main board, chances whoever did the repair removed the battery from the board, perhaps the repaired board is missing some of the parameters (should have uploaded them before removing), and...
  5. sp540V Banding

    Inspect the face of the Black and magneta head, willing to bet you have either a scratch or a dimple in the printheads (happened with a head strike). If so, time to replace the heads, no cleaning will ever get ink flowing to a damaged head. My .02 GTSTech_1
  6. Calibration issue.

    You guys run allot of Magentic material thru the machine? The Magentic will wear down the grit roller, thus the reason Roland doesn't recommend running it. You can replace the grit roller from roland, all you need to do is package up the printer in it's orginal packaging and send it to...
  7. need new printer head or cap top or?

    CapTop looks worn, I'd replace that and the damper (cheapest part 1st)........if that doesn't solve it could be time for a head. How many shots are on the head? Are you using 3rd party ink? I have seen heads at 2 billion shots overspray when using 3rd party inks, replaced with OEM and...
  8. printing out profiles

    Under the "Mark" section in Versaworks, select job properties, then select Color Mangement, or any other info you want......selected options or notes will print on the bottom of the image (there is some spacing, doesn't print on the image). My .02 GTSTech_1
  9. versaworks not cutting

    In VersaWorks, confirm you have Convert spot colors selected and an EPS margin (.05)......4 tab in Que Properties. Once confirmed, make sure you have the CutContour color selected on the design side. If you don't see "marching ants" in VersaWorks, the file will not cut. My .02 GTSTech_1
  10. How to set head alignment on VP540??

    Run your Bi-Dir calibration.....adjust if needed. If the Magneta is overlapping on the North or South then your Vertical Adjustment is out of wack.....if the magenta is east/west then your Bias is off....both of these are adjustments are done in "Service Mode" and best left to Roland Tech, or...
  11. Calibration issue.

    Feedmotor encoder could be dirty (or the encoder reader), or could be a Pinchwheel issue. My .02 GTSTech_1
  12. Mimaki jv33 display in local mode

    Cart #1 is empty or the chip reader not making contact with chip on cart. My .02 GTSTech_1
  13. SP 300 issues...

    With that test print (nozzle check) your heads have to be towards the end of their life or your using 3rd party ink. You have way too much deflection going on to produce a great quality print. For your "Drop out" on magenta, look at the captop, is the sponge swollen to the point the sponge is...
  14. convert xc540 back to full color?

    You can't go back with the VS series, not sure about the XC. Also the inks have no bearing on resolutions. Try lowering the heads or using a different profile for resolution problems. My .02 GTSTech_1
  15. roland sp540v carraige cable problems

    Your or the tech is leaving too much or not enough slack in the cable. Your Roland tech should have the PDF on replacing the guides and cable, it show the right and wrong way to install. My .02 GTSTech_1
  16. VP-540 problem

    Could be ink dropout.....create square boxes of Black, Cyan, Magneta and Yellow to confirm droput. another possible canidate....do you have "full width" scan enabled? if not enable it. I have seen werid color shifts/banding on long panels, when "full width" has been turned off. Having it...
  17. Roland sj-640 VS VersaWorks

    You need to select "Mutiple" printer in Versaworks...i think it's under the prefences tab. My .02 GTSTech_1
  18. Inks mixing

    More than likely it's a worn out Captop, and is creating a vacum (sucking magenta into yellow damper or ink line). Could also be bad damper on the yellow. Pull the yellow ink cart from machine and verify there's ink in cart, have seen the tab not work and thus creating the vacum effect. My...
  19. SP-300 to SP-300v

    No dip setting will change the serial number of the printer, which is the reason VW is not seeing the ink.....serial number no good with VW. Dongle Key for VW is only way for 1st gen printers. My .02 GTSTech_1
  20. SP-300V Fuse Blowing Problem

    Your mainboard may be bad. After you replace the fuses and put board back in machine, unplug the 2 main ribbon cables (cables go from Main board to print/cut carriage board). Turn the printer on, then turn off...check fuses, if ok then board is ok. Items that can cause the fuse to...
