  1. Versaworks Freezes/Quits

    Thanks for the advice guys! :) So far changing the format is working. Yes, I do wish Roland would come out with a 64 bit Versa as our computer has more than enough power to handle this type of stuff. Thanks again fellas! Best, prosigner
  2. Versaworks Freezes/Quits

    Hey everyone, We are using the newest version of Versaworks and are having troubles with a few picky files, large files, but not over 500mb. They are from Wikipedia so I don't think they are corrupt. Is there anything I can do about this to address this issue? Thanks in advance, prosigner

    Bump, anyone? Thanks in advance! :) prosigner
  4. General Sizes of Prints for Frames?

    Hey everyone, Hope you are all doing well! :) We are in the process of adding photos to our site and are trying to figure out if people look for sizes that will fit into frame sizes generally. Mainly, if there is a list of common frame sizes that we should be going by for our main sizes (we...
  5. Versaworks Crash Midprint

    Hey guys! I was recently printing a large print on my Roland XR-640 and as it was finishing up the print I loaded another to queue and versaworks crashed. Now I have a almost completed print that I'm trying to save. The printer says "now processing" but it's no longer finishing up the print. Is...
  6. Roland XR-640 Ink Droppout

    Thanks Crystal!! I'm worried that it's not something on the print head because the drops aren't random. They were on the media clamps and not on the print? Also I'm worried to wipe fibres away from the surface of the print head. Can I damage them by wiping the surface?
  7. Roland XR-640 Ink Droppout

    Hey Guys, I recently ran into a problem. I started noticing "PINK" ink drips on my media clamps but never really thought anything of it because it never dripped on my actual print. Then the other day I removed the media clamps to run a print and there were these little pink drips all the...
  8. Versaworks/XR-640 IPS Monitor Calibration

    Hey Castek, Thanks for the quick response. Appreciate it! If we are not looking at spending 2k at the moment, would the spyder be a good alternative? Or should we just keep doing tests for our prints until we get the print we want? We will consider that option for the future though...
  9. Versaworks/XR-640 IPS Monitor Calibration

    Hey guys, I'm looking to calibrate the IPS monitor we bought for our XR-640 and we are therefore also using Versaworks (the latest version at the moment). This is the monitor we are using; http://us.ncix.com/products/?mode=productreviewread&product_id=69432 I have been looking around...
  10. Color Accuracy Question

    Thanks for the help guys! Much appreciated. We are going to be getting an IPS monitor in and will have to look into getting it calibrated to maximize color accuracy on screen. We are running Versaworks and maybe that is where the issue lies. Will do more research and testing and report...
  11. Color Accuracy Question

    Hey everyone, hope your weekends are going well! :) We are still tinkering with our new Roland Printer and wondering how you guys deal with color accuracy. We noticed on our first test print the colors were different on the print from the image on the computer. Say we have an RGB image...
  12. Wallpaper Lining Up Sheets

    What are some tools you guys usually use to get the straightest lines? We're thinking of ordering a 5ft safetyruler but don't know if there is a easier method or better tool? The longest job we'd have to cut is 9ft. Or is a 5ft ruler even too long??
  13. Wallpaper Lining Up Sheets

    Thanks for the replies guys, really appreciate it! How are you guys making straights cuts on the white margins on each side down tall images that are 54-60" wide (each panel). Because they are being overlapped do you not worry about being perfectly straight because it is being cut off...
  14. Wallpaper Lining Up Sheets

    Hey guys, With the 0.5" margins on each side of each panel that is to be printed, we are wondering with our XR-640 how to do wallpaper. With the 0.5" of white border, are you guys getting rid of the border manually with a straight edge, overlapping both on the wall, then cutting between...
  15. Home Built Flatbed Applicator

    Hey guys, I'm looking to build my own home built flatbed applicator. I have a associate who's working in engineering and mechanics who will be able to provide the service needed to build one. But I could use some tips, tricks, steps to help me and my associate to get started. We are looking...
  16. Material Sizing and Waste Management Help

    Hey guys, My new Roland Pro 4 is coming Thursday and as a newbie I have a question on material/substrate sizing and waste management. We're offering different sizes of art but only bought inventory of 60" rolls. Do I need to buy rolls of all different sizes of the same material? I'm just...
  17. IPS Panel Necessary?

    Hey guys! Hope you're all doing well. Do you guys use TN panels or IPS panels, is the accurate color gamut important for using software like Versaworks? Thanks :)
  18. Lease Rates

    Hey everyone, We are looking to lease a printer/cutter and we are being quoted a final price of ~39k on a 30k printer. Should we lease shop for a better deal or is this a pretty standard quote? Thanks in advance! :U Rock:
  19. High Resolution Images under Public Domain?

    Hey everyone, I was wondering if you guys knew of any places to find high resolution images under the Public Domain such as this one for example; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Plan_de_Turgot.jpg Very large sizes that we are interested in, around 6500x5000 - and under the Public...
  20. Stock Photos Sources

    Thanks for the suggestion, I believe the purpose is so that when someone questions if they acquired the image legitimately - our company logo would be checked with Shutterstock and they could verify that it was. I will have to give Shutterstock another call.. Anyone else have any problems...
