Depends on how much it's going to cost you. You'll probably have $3000 or so USD in just parts to get it up and running. Anything with ink in it probably needs to be replaced. If you know what you're doing and can do the work yourself, it *might* be all there is. But in reality, you've still...

You're going to be pretty short on options on that one as parts availability will be pretty thin. I would guess that most likely you have an ink flow issue - especially if the printer has just sat around for a while. If you can try syringing ink through the captop, that will tell you if ink is...

My first guess is that you have a fiber of some sort - banner scrim, hair, etc - on the bottom of one of your heads and it's pinstriping your print. On rare occasions I've seen ink build up significant to cause that as well. Get a bright flashlight and look at the bottom of your print carriage...

If the wrinkles are even left and right, then the roller pressure is set accurately. That leaves pressure and tension to adjust. Usually inexperienced people try to use too much of both. Back off of the tension and try using the second notch for laminating your print. Laminating is part art...

I'm not sure I understand your question, but if you're trying to learn how to use Flexi, there are quite a few free videos on YouTube from SAi. They also have training classes at various times around the country. Check out LearnFlexi.com. Mark is a great instructor who knows Flexi inside and out.

Hand refers to how much you can feel the print on the fabric. The softer the hand, the less you can feel the transfer material. I don't have much experience with Latex printed transfers though. Sorry I can't help.

You may be able to connect the hard drive as a secondary drive on the new computer and be able to access the files that way. It kind of depends on what's broken. This is a great commercial for having a good data backup system in place and using it religiously.

Are you using the same model of Roland printer to print on? The Roland Color System works great if you're picking colors from a swatch that was printed on the production printer. They use fixed CMYK colors to print out the colors and if you're not on the same machine - even similar ones will...

Flexi? Onyx? SignLab? - The probably all have the drivers for it.

A proper PM visit on those included new cap tops and new prime assemblies. Have you replaced those? Have you tried a new ink cartridge? I'm afraid if you left it unplugged you may have a very big boat anchor. Sometimes it makes more sense to involve a dealer who can help you avoid such gotchas...

You've prooved my point about what we would know about laws over there. I couldn't even get the form of government correct:oops: I didn't realize it was the same person either till I did the search to prove the point that this question has been asked and answered.

Try cleaning the grit encoder disk and sensor on the left end of the machine. This is what tells the printer how far the grit wheels have turned. I would suspect an error code would pop up, but this might just be the cause. It's a clear plastic disk with tiny marks that the sensor counts as...

Actually the whole "using copyrighted or trademarked artwork without permission from the owner" question has been hashed out before. This isn't much different than your previous post: There are about 10 pages in my search for the word trademark. And no, it's not a totally different question...

Is your black print head still misdirecting jets? Can you change the color to cyan and print again just to see if it is color related?

This? Again??

Have you done your feed and bi-directional calibrations? What print mode is that?

No. As VanderJ said, replace the clamps (contact a Roland distributor). I wouldn't use them till they are working properly. Also, if the corners (edges) of your media are bent up so much that they're hitting the print heads, they may have enough force to lift the edge guards into the path of...

Something's amiss here. If ink flows through to the waste ink bottle when cleaning, it should flow through when pulling with a syringe. Are you pulling directly from the captop or trying to pull through the pump? If you move the carriage aside and put cleaning fluid on the captop, can you pull...

Are you syringing from the captop directly or doing it from below the pump? If ink comes through when doing a cleaning then it should come through with the syringe. If you move the head out of the way and put some cleaning fluid in the captop, can you pull that through? If he's been removing...
