  1. Anyone have a custom trick to track laminate length?

    I know I am gonna go way out in the weeds on this one but... The roll starts at 150 feet, and if we laminate something that's 8 feet long or 20 feet long or whatever... we subtract that from the the 150... next time we subtract again until we don't have any left... then we start over...
  2. (Roland VG2) Veresaworks Printing Grey (gray) prints pink - Solution

    Here is the common issue with grey tones on CMYK that no one ever talks about: If your color swatch contains ANYTHING other than a % of Black, it is going to print a hue of something other than grey. If your Color Swatch has a higher % of Magenta, then it will print pink, if it has a higher % of...
  3. Need Help Roland TruVis VG3-540 Printing Darker Colors

    Did you use a spot color? The image on the screen could be pink, but if there is a named spot color that corresponds with a preset in the printer, it's going to produce the preset color. Other issue, if the original image was an RGB, the rip software is going to convert it to some form of CMYK...

    1) What rip software are you using? 2) Create a print file that is a ruler. Make it 4ft wide and 5ft deep. Markings every 1/4 inch. Have it set up like a T with the 5ft in the center. Calibrate your media settings before printing just to make sure everything is correct in the printer. Set your...

  7. Rant Roland offers big discount but 3 months too late!

    1) You HAVE to own an XR-640 to get the discount. 2) The issue is the XR-640 is SUCH A BEAST they won't die. Ours is 8 years old and is an absolute work horse. 3) My new VG3-640 should be here in a few weeks. Had no intentions to buy a new one, but when they are giving you a 30% discount, it's...
  8. S80600 Bandning

    The issue is multiple parts with feed calibration. They had to replace the feed motor, the alignment wheel, alignment wheel sensor, the media feed reel (on the back). First thing they did was replace the heads, and were very upset when it did it on the first print after. If you want to do a fun...
  9. S80600 Bandning

    Did this start while the machine was in warranty? If yes and it is documented with service or your vendor, they should still honor the warranty for the issue... or at least allow you to purchase the $4000 extended warranty.
  10. S80600 Bandning

    Starts out fine and starts banding is a bigger issue. We had this with our S80600. There are about 5 different things that it could be. We were lucky and ours happened under warranty. They replaced about $10k in parts before it finally got fixed.... took 3 months and 5 total service calls. Has...
  11. s80600 / onyx thrive 19 - color shift on reprint

    Unfortunately, I do not think this is going to fix your issue, only create more as you will be "chasing the rabbit". We have been having this same issue since our S80600 was new (2.5 years). We have printed files one after the other, media never removed, no settings changed, files ripped at the...

    That is the service contract.... its $3500 per year.
  13. Upgrading from VG-540 to s80600

    I mostly agree with your post. The S80600 when it is working properly is a Great Machine. Beautiful print quality and fast. The issue is this, it is not made for heavy use. I was told this by an Epson Service Tech. Literally asked me what in the world we were doing to the machine. Told him it...

    I had this issue after replacing a head and dampers. It took me performing 10-15 powerful cleanings to pull and fill the dampers and purge all of the air.

    We switched to 3M-40-20R. Doesn't have the removability, but installation is 1000 times easier.
  17. So this is looking bad... s80600 has been turned off for a week :(

    Battery Back Ups People! I have them on all of my Printers! (Including an S80600). They usually save me from throwing away whatever is printing at the moment of the outage, but will keep the printer powered long enough in sleep mode to keep it doing its automatic maintenance. $500 investment...

    You had a serious head crash. That is a damaged head, not a clogged one. Needs replaced.
  19. Need Help Advice on printer

    We have an 8 year old XR 640 and it is a TANK! 2 Years ago we bought an Epson S80600 and it is GARBAGE! Amazing print quality and speed, but the machine itself is junk. Over $10k in repairs under warranty and we have spend $6k on maintenance and repairs after that. We are replacing it in 2023...

    We have debates like this all the time. Sometimes the issue is "The Customer is Always Right, even when they are wrong." If they want 9,000 items listed, then list the 9,000 things as nice as you can. If you hate the design when it is done, and they love it... then don't list it in your...
