  3. Creeping temps

    I have a Soljet II (specifically an SJ540) which has the tendency to sometimes creep in temperature. I'll set the thermostat at lets say 31 and sometimes it will stay put all day. Sometimes it will creep all the way over 40 in the matter of a few minutes. Any idea what this could be? Its...

  5. ICC Nightmare

    Ok here is the deal. I bought a printer (Roland SJ540 SoljetII) about a year ago with little knowledge and a lot of ambition.

  9. Expired Ink

    Hello all. I received a bunch of ink when I bought my printer and haven't been able to go through it all. Specifically they are 1L bottles of Prime PRMS Bordeaux Ink. The catch is they are all either expired or close to expiring. Visually they look ok but I want to know are these as good as...

  15. Feeler: New Seal EL54 possibly for sale

    Hey everyone. Thought I would check in to gauge interest in my Seal EL54 which I bought new from Sonoma Graphics earlier this year. I just haven't used it as much as I though I would be using it.

    Hey everyone. I just got done calibrating my Roland Soljet II (sj540) and started printing the days' queue. I notices that a banner I was printing had this faint magenta ghost around all the negative white areas. Any idea what would cause something like this? I checked the head and it looks...

    Hello. I usually use wrap cast on decals but used 3165RA to create some decals for a road trip this week. Think police type shield on the drivers and passengers door of a new dodge pickup.
