  1. Need Help Roland LEJ640 does not measure media correctly

    I tried printing on the roll setting for the first time and things went smoothly, but now that I am trying to print on rigid material again (4mil coroplast) the machine will not measure the width of the media properly. It measure the entire length the machine allows instead of the 48 inches that...
  2. Need Help Latex 310 Error 16.41:10

    Great post! Thanks so much. That explains a lot. We didn't get a reading on the 1st module so we know where to go next.
  3. Need Help Latex 310 Error 16.41:10

    We've been getting error code 16.13:10 for a few weeks now. We would restart the printer and it could be fine for a week and then pop up again. Yesterday we got the same code, so we took the front cover off and cleaned the dust out of the fans with canned air. There was A LOT in there. After we...
  4. Need Help VS-540i not printing

    No. I didn't think to hang on to it. I've got a call into our tech to see if he can give us any clue. So, we replaced the head and dampers because it had not been done in a while. The dampers were clogged pretty bad and ink was everywhere in the head when we pulled the dampers out.
  5. Need Help VS-540i not printing

    Changed the head fuse and still nothing. Any other ideas?
  6. Need Help VS-540i not printing

    Yeah I can pull ink from each tube. I have no problem pulling ink from anywhere. It's not leaking out anywhere. I mean, it's got to be coming from the printhead. I can pull it through the bottom of the cap. Just won't print anything. Even the test print from the printer.
  7. Need Help VS-540i not printing

    Our VS-540i is not printing anything. We have replaced the cap, printhead, and dampers. We changed the head rank numbers, reset the head group, run powerful cleanings, etc. Ink is definitely moving. I've pulled ink with a syringe through the bottom of the cap and checked to make sure the new...
  8. Roland VersaUV LEJ 640 Skewing on Print

    We've actually had quite a few signs returned. The ink basically flakes off even after just a couple of months.
  9. Need Help Weird Shadow Lines - Latex 310

    We just started getting these lines in our prints on the HP Latex 310. Only horizontal. It's like the negative space "casts a shadow". I'm attaching some pictures. It doesn't matter if we rotate the file before printing. We have changed the printheads too. Any ideas?
  10. Roland VersaUV LEJ 640 Skewing on Print

    Ever since I have started working with this UV printer I have noticed that it does not print the images straight on the material. I use 4 mil chloroplast for most of my signs and the issue comes in with double sided signs. When cutting the signs out you can clearly see that the machine is not...
  11. Where to get empty cores

    3” pvc sewer pipe from any big box hardware place. Works great , relatively inexpensive, last forever.
  12. Need Help HP 310 Latex Problem...

    Most likely a leak. Same problem recently on same printer. Giveaway is the blocked nozzles on new printhead.
  13. Roland VersaUV LEJ-640 Hybrid UV-LED Flatbed Printer

    Slow! Good color range. Buy a rebuilt from dealer then it is worth it.
  14. Opinion Opinion on First Flatbed printer

    I bought the Roland LEJ 640 hybrid. We like it. Slower than we had hoped but good quality. Keep it maintained and it will serve you well.
  15. Any experience with 20/20 Color inks for Roland - Alternatives?

    okay Taiwan ... the other China!
  16. Silly Question ... Spray Bottles

    ZEP bottles from Lowe’s or Home Depot. Great question too. Yellow and blue tops with much tougher plastic than you get on the cheap ones. Sprays best. Has a better chance of surviving a drop from the table.
  17. Need an opinions on this printer

    I have one and love it. Easy general maintenance. Techs are all different but most are good. Fast. Easy to buy third party inks that do work. Got others as well with eco-solvent and uv-led but the workhorse is latex! Been at this 30 years and have had’em all at one time. HP is a very good...
  18. Silly Question ... Spray Bottles

    I buy nothing but ZEP labeled bottles. Much better than any others we have ever used. Available at Lowe’s or Home Depot too.
  19. Question head strikes Roland LEJ 640 hybrid flatbed

    We are learning how to use our relatively new Roland LEJ 640 hybrid printer. When printing a full 4x8 sheet we sometimes have a series of head swipes, not hard strikes, with the passing of the head over the very exact middle of the sheet. The marks might cover an area of 6" x 8" and no more...
