I have also seen this. I am purchasing a new pair from a Japan site I was told about. The reference used them first hand and had no issue with the print heads. 150 is the price. If 10 or more are ordered then the price goes down to 140 per head. I will try 2 and then order at least 3 sets...
old pc
Collin,
Have you tried to use VMWARE as a virtual machine for the old software inside your pc? I had the same issues so I loaded VMWARE on my PC and now run Roland Color Choice V4.5 RIP on Windows XP inside my windows 7 PC. Works like a champ. The windows 7 PC is x64 and I run a x32...

From my experience in a REDO of a large order where vinyl failed. The vinyl source will sell vinyl they stock for up to 2 years. Then they sell it or dump it. So .. 2 years is when I scrap mine after the fresh date on the vinyl is 2 years passed the date of the vinyl made date. So basically...
The issues is the vector art you have. If you use Adobe Illustrator you can select View Outline or CTRL Y and see the lines. The issues is the plotter is attempting to cut everything you told it to cut when you hit send. PM me the file and I can show you if you do not have Illy.

I purchased some parts for my Roland fj 50 and crossed my fingers.. Low dollar really but when the parts showed up and were exactly what they were supposed to be I put a little more faith in the over seas shipment. Best thing is they came one week earlier then stated on the email...
Storage is a reoccurring bill. Drives and remote storage are cheaper. CLOUD computing is good but there is a problem with off site data recovery.... It is very slow but does work.
