Recently purchased a Roland VS-640 used and I'm discovering that take up systems for these printers are rarer than hen's teeth. Not sure why a take up isn't just integrated into the printer's design. Do they think you'll never, ever print anything longer than 4 feet? I have the rails (Roland...

New print head New maintenance station New set of dampers After several strong cleanings, little charges, and using a syringe to pull air out of the lines, the dampers in the black ink channels won't fill all the way and I can't get a clean nozzle check. All other colors are fine. Anyone?

Oce Arizona 360 TX Onyx ProductionHouse 10 Any time I try to run a job on black or clear material where there is heavy coverage of white ink (spot layer or flood fill) the white will band and drop out almost completely about halfway through. I've had a tech out here three times to attempt to...

Judging by this code and the fact that the front of the printer is cold to the touch, I'm guessing that the after heater has gone bad. I looked in my service manual and replacing the heater seems like a fairly time consuming task involving extensive disassembly using some expensive-looking...

My shop does a lot of large indoor wall graphics. Looking for a decent print media that I don't have to laminate and won't fall off the wall in a week/month/year. The vinyl we've used in the past (3M, Oracal) doesn't want to stick to painted drywall, or much of anything else apparently...Anyone?

Any minor flaw in the media (scuffs, scratches, streaks, etc.) will appear in the finished print, even with heavy coverage. This is especially true with styrene. The sheet will look spotless before printing, but scuffs and scratches will magically appear. Even with more than adequate curing...

Ok.... About one month ago I performed a simple damper change on my VJ-1604. Not a complicated procedure, and one I've done on other printers but never this one before. I have a service manual and followed the directions to the letter, being very careful as I know how fragile some parts of a...

Printer ran flawlessly until I changed out all dampers, then it ran fine for a little while, now even after numerous "Little Charges" and "Strong" cleanings I still can't get clean test prints on half of the black. Lately it's been throwing wiper sensor errors as well...New Maintainence Station...

Printer: Roland Sol Jet Pro II SC-540 RIP: Roland COLORIP ver. 2.2 Sometimes when I add a cut path to images in Illustrator, two identical cut lines, one on top of the other, will appear when I open it in the RIP, causing the plotter to cut the file twice. There is only one cut line in the...

Running Flexi 8.1 and when I send an .eps file with a cut line it won't print the print/cut marks and only prints one copy no matter how many I tell the RIP to print....Only seems to happen with files that have clipping masks. :help

I'm trying to print onto black pegboard/MDF on an Oce Arizona 360XT. The ink doesn't want to stick. I've cleaned the board well (50/50 mix Simple Green & water followed by denatured alcohol). Turned the leading lamp off and set the trailing lamp at 7. We're printing three layers of ink. The ink...

We just recently switched over to Onyx X10 ProductionHouse RIP software for all our printers and I can't get it to run a Roland SolJet Pro II SC-540. It was up and running for a little while (slowly..then jobs would quit in the middle, now it won't run at all, and the cutter never worked.) Can't...

Greetings. I've been lurking mostly, posting sometimes and have recieved some excellent help and support from a lot of folks here but have never formally introduced myself so here goes. My name is Lon and I work for Victory Display and Store Fixtures based in Gardena, CA. We do a little bit of...

When I try to print on 60" media the carriage makes it's first pass and gets about a third of the way through the second pass, makes a slight rumbling noise and quits. Drops this error code:[E074Err CR2 Current]. From my searches within this forum I've found that this is a common catch all code...

Just got back from the ISA show in Vegas this past weekend and the owners of the company are about to purchase one of these. I'm just curious if anyone here has had any experience with one (or it's Fuji equivalent). Hate it? Love it? How's customer support? Reliability? What can I expect?

Our shop has 3 printers (Mutoh VJ-1604, ColorSpan UVR72, Roland SC-540) which are often running simutaneously. The area is fairly well ventilated with windows that open and 2 doors which see a lot of traffic (One leads out to our wearhouse, the other to outside.) but no exaust fans other than...

I'm sure this has been talked about here many times, but....How do you guys do it? Generally, to save time, materials and my sanity I'll print out a Pantone color chart and an RGB color chart (clean, sharp, vector-based .eps files I found on the web.) on whatever printer will be used and try to...

I'm CONSTANTLY having to adjust the print feed..even when switching out rolls of the same material. Paper, vinyl, banner..doesn't matter. PF Motor was just replaced. Belt tension seems okay. Performed micro adjustment. Problem persists. I get banding and can't print tiled images because the...

I'm sure this issue has been addressed here before but I'm hoping for some information that I can use to apply to my specific situation: Roland SC-540 Roland COLORIP ver 2.2 I recieve files in various formats (.jpeg .tif .eps .pdf) with various color settings (RGB, CMYK) and I'm having...

I'm getting little irregular white dots in my prints...Tried different media, different files, cleanings..problem still persists. Seems worse with black. I've been getting these two warnings lately: Life Times [Pnmp] Life Times [PF Motor] Has something finally gone bad?
