  1. Question PPF vs Lamination?

    PPF is generally a thicker film, usually made from urethane. It has self healing properties that allow it to take abuse like rocks or scratches from other things. This film applies very differently from a wrap film and requires different techniques to apply properly. A cast laminate is...

  3. Roland RV versa express 640 cleaning before every print

    It could be an ink system protection feature. Look in Versaworks at the ink status for your printer. do any of cartridges show an error? This can happen if you have expired ink or a bad chip on a cartridge or the chip reader is not reading the cartridge correctly. Have you recently changed...

    Make sure that you have an EPS margin set up on the File Format tab of the default queue properties.
  6. Near Portland, OR & Print Metallic Ink?

    It's not very common. It was a great idea, but in reality, it only looks metallic when you print on gloss vinyl and don't laminate. Most of my customers that set up their printers with metallic ink have long since replaced it with a cleaning cartridge. It would be more effective to print on...
  7. Need Help rTape - Brushed aluminum profile - SG-300

    You're probably going to have to do what Z signs says. I doubt there's going to be a profile for it. The profile is dependent on a white point, which I'm sure the metallic doesn't provide. If the generic one you used is satisfactory, just stick with that. Otherwise, test, test, test... Good...
  8. black line on edge of print

    I believe its called flushing in the menu. (It's been a while since I've used a 1204). I think the options were on the edge of the vinyl - as you have now, which is quicker - or on the pad, which takes slightly longer due to the head having to travel a little further. Good Luck
  9. Squeeze Roller - getting wrinkles

    Try working in the center of the roller. Some of those are slightly crowned in the center and will cause wrinkles if you're working at the edge of the table. Good Luck,

  11. Suggestions Constant Head Misalignment - HP Latex 365

    If your take up is pulling to the side, that could cause the paper to lift up, maybe not enough for a head strike, but enough to throw off calibrations. Try printing a roll without using the take-up. If you still have problems at least you know the take up isn't causing them. Check the dates...
  12. XR-640

    The XR's are a very good, very stable printer. They've been out for quite a while now, so any bugs have been worked out of them long ago. Good Luck, Joe
  13. This grainy print is relentless

    Have you tried printing unidirectional? Double check your calibrations. Also, when things happen "all of the sudden" check your environment. If the temp is higher in your shop, or humidity lower, the ink will dry before it has a chance to spread out like normal. I've also seen static...
