Hey everyone, I'm Matthew, and I run a small print shop. I've been lurking here for a while, learning a ton from you all, and figured it was time to actually introduce myself. Like most of you, I got into this business because I love the work. But after a few years, I found myself spending...

We print onto phone and laptop cases, what would be the highest end flat bed uv printer you would recommend? Leaning towards roland co-i. But wasnt sure if we should look at any others before pulling the trigger. Max quality and max durability are most important. Not as worried about speed...

Hey everyone, looking into the roland co-i series printer to print onto phone cases. It will need to print onto slight contours, be very durable ink and adhesion, and highest quality color/print as we can get. Would anyone push me into the roland? Or is there a better option?

Hello i am new hier. I need help for Windows 10 Drivers for VP-540. please send me more info about connection . Thanks in advance

Hey everyone. I’m new here and wondered if anyone has had any issues with getting a strong white on the Roland LG series printer? We had it installed this week, and we need to get a super strong white while printing onto the substance hyperneon yellow materials. We have it setup as...

I've owned two vg2's for about 4 years now and have never had any major issues. However I can't seem to diagnose the problem I am having here. My orange print head just stopped printing after being unused for about 10 days. I've tried every cleaning mode available to no avail. Cap tops were...

Bought in 2023 and in consistent use since. Excellent printer with some natural use. Still prints great. Only catch is it HAS to print unidirectionally. Otherwise, it’s a hard working machine that’s great for long prints or sheets. Can do textured prints. Color is vivid and ink is extremely...

Hello, I have been using the Roland MO-240 printer with the additional rotary rack attachment, but I would like to print white and CMYK simultaneously. Currently, to print a white layer followed by a CMYK layer on top, I create one job using only the white special color, then another job for...

So just over 12 months ago, one of the reasons I decided to upgrade our printer was the included take up unit. This basically allowed us to set our printer on a long print run and leave it printing unattended while we get on with other things and occasionally printing overnight if we were...

We just relocated our shop down the road, and the printers are back up and running in our new space. All is well, except our VG-2 screen says "setup sheet" where it used to say "roll", with the option to toggle over to "TU" or "TU2". The takeup is plugged in, and functions when tension is...

Hello, I was getting ready to sell a Roland VS-540 for my company and one of our designers went to perform a test print with it and it came out poorly. It has been sitting for a while but has been on the whole time with the auto clean running from what I've been told. I have attached a picture...

Hello everyone, I’m having a serious problem with my Roland printer and would appreciate your advice. The Light Magenta channel completely disappears. When I do a CL Shock / Powerful Cleaning, it sometimes comes back but only partially, and then other colors start to break up as well. After...

I'm interested in getting a cutter/plotter to complement my bn-20 roland printer. Looking a bit I've got some ideas but would love to hear what you masters of the cut might recommend? I would like to be able to make them appear die cut (not just jagged perf cut.) Thoughts? TIA!

Hello, Can anyone tell why is my Roland sp540 V is printing dark maroon instead of the black color?

Hi Guys, So I have an issue with my VS540i. So my old printhead has been leaking whilst idle. Ink droplets would just drip from the printhead whilst nothing was happening. I've noticed this when I did a manual clean as I could see under the printhead. As well as this the printhead will often get...

Left side is from my test. Right is a sample of how it should appear. Prints still look very good coming through, no banding, though would like to correct this. Where is the fault -and- how to adjust? Thanks in advance.

Cable just snapped, manually moved head carriage to the right, though don't know how to get the caps up to seal the heads in this state. As well, need guidance on cable replacement. Thanks in advance.

Recently replaced my beloved Roland XC-540 because I was having problems with 1 of the print heads, and because the printer was down a BIT too long while I was waiting for the parts to arrive to repair it, I had a second head get clogged and expire! So, since the printer was getting old and...

hello I would like to get some advice. I originally used BN-20 (printer A) to run a small business. However, one day, blue ink started to seep into the yellow ink area as shown in the photo below, and the resulting color came out messy. (The photo shows a nozzle test after cleaning, so the...

Hello everyone, I recently got a Roland VS-640i from an auction. I bought it without knowing if it was working, and as soon as I got it, I tested everything, and it worked well. It was running with double CMYK and some non-branded cartridges, so I changed it to the same aftermarket ink that I...
