  1. Generic Cleaning Solution for solvent ink

    Actually, I find it a good deal to purchase generic 220ml eco-sol cleaning carts, and extract the cleaning solvent, pour it into my little plastic bottles for cleaning, way cheaper than the Roland brand, and as most have said, it's about the same stuff and works great for cleaning! Here's some...
  2. SP540V Static Hair On Blue Only...?

    Most everybody on here knows how plotters and printers work in this industry, but not sure if you are failure with how circuit boards are populated, here is a short video showing how FAST a PICK and PLACE machine (chip shooter) can populate a circuit board ready to be wave soldered in the next...
  3. SP540V Static Hair On Blue Only...?

    How can a dirty encoder strip effect just ONE print head? Also, I thought you did this a little while back? I don't think it is something you should clean very often, I remember one poster used the wrong cleaner and removed the small indicator marks on the encoder strip, and had to get a new...

  8. SP540V Static Hair On Blue Only...?

    Well, the cable swap is one way to determine if the problem is the PRINT HEAD or something else, if the swap procedure is done correctly (without zapping the fuse), and the static-blurred image transfers to the other print head you know it's NOT the print head that is bad, however if there is NO...

  11. is there any way to fix this blur? Roland SP54V

    Yes, the two small surface mount fuses are loacated on the main board in the back of the printer. If one of the two fueses is blown (open), you need to replace it. They are very small and difficult to solder if you don't have experience with theses very small SMT electronic components. If too...
  12. solvent printing on fabric

    Yep, that's what they did for me, also some of their solvent printable fabrics are listed as 58" and 126" wide, and they slit them to 54" for me ultrasonically to eliminate fraying and head strikes. Good company. :thumb:

    :goodpost: Please slow down and read all the posts or you are going to mess up! Player had clearly told you where the fuses are located (see above in red), also read his thread, he is going through the same problems RIGHT NOW. USE CAUTIION when working on the electronics, make sure the power...
  18. SP540V Static Hair On Blue Only...?

    Hey Richard, I'm just trying to help, I'm sorry to hear about your problem, and how it has escalated. Many times on here people have posted about the misting-blur problem, and some time when they change or wiggle the print head cables, it fixes the misting-blur problem. However there are...

  20. is there any way to fix this blur? Roland SP54V

    Yes, do you have a multimeter that has a continuity setting? My multimeter has a continuity setting, when set to continuity, the meter makes a beep if you have continuity (closed circuit). If so, set the meter for continuity, and hold one probe on each side of the fuse, if you get a continuity...
