I recently changed printheads in my LEC-330 and now the yellow color channel is constantly firing the print head nozzles also known as block printing. The printheads are tested and working because when I move the heads to different color channel the block printing stays on the yellow color...

Hi I have a VG2-540 I completely refurbished with brand new heads with brand new dampers. I checked all the choke valves, pressure pumps, waste pumps and all Ink lines throughout and everything was flushed and ink renewed with brand new ink. The problem I have is some of the dampers seem to be...

Hi everyone, I'm hoping for some advice from people who have experience with the Roland BN-20 and ink-system issues. I have a Roland BN-20 and I use refillable cartridges with eco-solvent ink. This is the first time I've ever made this particular mistake. I accidentally filled my magenta...

I have seen a lot of printers people are installing ESL#-CL Cleaning Cartridges to flush the ink out of the lines and keep in storage while not using. In my experience ESL#-CL Cleaning Liquid will still damage printheads, ink lines and all parts that come in contact with the ESL#-CL Cleaning...

I usually always buy aftermarket maintenance parts but lately I have had problems with air getting in to the ink lines of older printers when using the aftermarket parts like DX4 Dampers and DX4 Cap-Tops for Roland SP-540V, Roland VP-540 and XC-540 Models. I have looked closely at the parts I...

So, if you guys read my thread from over the winter you know I had some serious complaints about the state of solvent machines particularly with Roland and Mimaki. Well, the good news is that complaint is no longer valid. I have gotten to see what Roland’s new VG4 can do and I can finally say...

Hi I have a VP-540 that I need to replace the cutting carriage and print carriage L-bearing blocks since its binding and is really hard to move freely along the rail. So I'm trying to find a good how to video or instruction manual so I can see what parts I need to remove first before I replace...

Hi I have a customer I'm selling a Roland VG-540 Printer to next week and I want to make sure the ink level status is correct before selling them the printer. I have verified there is plenty of ink in the TR2 pouches almost 90% full but still all cartridges are showing near empty on the latest...

Hi I have a VG2-540 that is setup with white ink. Is there a way to switch out the White Ink Cartridge with a Cleaning Cartridge? I’ll still keep the ink configuration the same so when I do need to go back to the white ink all I would have to do is flush the ink line out manually and refill the...

Hi everyone, I have a Roland TrueVIS VG-540 that is stuck in a "Canceled for Pump Protection" error and I can't get past it. Here's exactly what happened: I started a head wash and canceled it mid-cycle. After that, every time I power on the printer it runs for a few seconds, I can hear the...

Hi guys. I'm from the UK. I recently moved home and have space in my garage for a 30inch print and cut. Inside my home I currently have the BN20 running at draft 2 which isn't really fast enough for my needs. I also have the Roland VS540i which will be going on sale as it is too big for my...

Looking for the good , the bad and the ugly truth. Upgrading from a VS series and can't really find any unbiased information on this model. TIA

Does anyone have any supplier/distributors that happen to sell semi/eco-solvent digitally printable .030 Polystyrene?

Whats been people's experience switching from a Roland VG series printer to an Epson? The shop I do production at is looking to upgrade away from our VG2-540 - its being a pain. My first simple inclination is to go for the new XG offering from Roland, but with how new it is I haven't heard...

Evening all, I wondered If I could ask a quick question about my Roland VS-640i? It doesn't seem to be drawing ink through or print. I keep it clean and do regular maintenance on it but I must admit I haven't properly printed anything for a short while, the white ink cartridge is also empty but...

Hello! It appears I’ve got some banding with anything solid black. I’ve adjusted bi-directional & calibrated. Any suggestions from here? I can go into service mode and make sure everything is setup correctly.

My machine works with the CMYKWhWhGlGl program, I asked me to change the white ink, and I did it, and since the new ink packs are placed with new dates, this problem appears to me sometimes 0001, other times 0002, and when the machine is running, it washes 3 times before giving me this message...
