  1. Roland SP-540V Cutter/Knife Replacement Question

    I was having problems weeding "easy weed vinyl" for football jersey names so I replaced my knife but I'm not sure if I replaced it correctly. PROBLEM SOLVED...I JUST NEEDED TO SCREW THE BOTTOM IN TIGHTLY SO THE BLADE WAS SHOWING THROUGH THE BOTTOM AND NOW IT CUTS GREAT.
  2. "Carriages are Disconnected" Error on SP-540V

    Thanks for all of the input! I finally got the printer back up and running like a champ. Talked to the Roland tech on the phone and he walked me through replacing the encoder strip that I purchased locally. Very simple and it's now working great. Appreciate all the input.
  3. "Carriages are Disconnected" Error on SP-540V

    Not sure how to run the service menu encoder calibrations? I ran the menu calibrations print selection, and then ran the test print and cleaning (and deep cleaning menu option) and that enabled me to print the attached test print along with a perfect decal with perfect cut line...but the menu...

    If appears that the head has redocked and capped...see last closeup picture and let me know. I left a voicemail for a Roland technician to schedule an appointment for him/her to come out and tune up the printer and fix the problem, but I'm getting behind on print jobs in the mean time...would...
  5. "Carriages are Disconnected" Error on SP-540V

    A friend who has the same machine said to do a "Environmental match" which I did and it said that it doesn't match. And now I am getting an error code "service call 0110". I guess that means I need a Roland technician unless someone has another idea? When I turn the machine on the head goes...
  6. "Carriages are Disconnected" Error on SP-540V

    I researched replacing the strip and nusigns says it's $262 just for the OEM Roland encoder strip (they call is a "sheet linear scale...part #21475188). Does that sound correct to replace the encoder strip? I see them on ebay for $19.99 with free shipping, but don't think those will work.
  7. "Carriages are Disconnected" Error on SP-540V

    I turned the machine off and then back on to get the head to go back to the start position (so no dried up heads), but how do I reconnect the carriages? When I run my print job it moves to the same position on the far left side and then stops and gives me the error message "carriages are...
  8. "Carriages are Disconnected" Error on SP-540V

    Can someone please give me a suggestion on where to look to reconnect the carriages on my SP-540V. My decals were printing and cutting poorly so I cleaned the encoder strip which I have done in the past to fix this problem, but now I have a new problem...error message "carriages are...

  10. Help Please - Need Smart Car Dimensions for Vehicle Wrap

    It is overkill, but on my first few wraps that is how I have done them (and I shared my rookie method just for laughs). Learned from my carpenter dad to "measure twice and cut once". Since the brown paper is practically free and the 3M vinyl and laminate is expensive and in limited supply in my...
