    Posted by James@MP on 30 June 2005 at 11:01

    Now Don’t all laugh please.

    Does anyone know where I can get PC-50 Cartridges, im looking for 4 more so i can at least change the colours. Along with a Blade holder. Im not going to be doing anything big with these because the reviews says its terrible but for the small tiny things i want to do with it, i think it will be fine. Im slowly learning how to do things with it from corel draw.

    Any help will be much appreciated, i had thought i had found some @ 50p each for used ones then, i was told they are like rocking horse poop. If anyone has any recommendations please let me know?

    Thanks

    hi James

    There is nothing wrong with a PC50/PNC5000, we started our business and ran it for the first year using the same machine

    You can get 4 colour carts from roland plus you can get refills from thermal products.

    Ask the suppliers of blades for blade holders

    There are some tricks to getting the pnc5000 working from corel if you have any probs give us a ring 01326 210888

    I think Grafityp do blades for the roland

    I should ask them if they do blade holders also

    Got a price for the blades, but they dont stock the holders any more, these are a compatable blade, is there much difference. ?

    James,

    Let me know what blades you purchased and I can check them against the blade holders that we do stock.

    James,

    Good news, the Roland blades that we supply do fit our blade holders, the downside I do not know if the diameter of the blade holder would suit your Roland.

    As for prices sorry but you will have to call our sales office, don’t think I should be posting prices.

    The blade holders for the pnc5000 , pc50 are the same for any roland machine , buy the alluminium one and not the plastic one.
    You can use the pc 60 refils in the 5000 as well.

    Hiya David, Have you still go some cartridges left ?
    Am interested, my collection of cartridge holders is growing now, Mainly black ones at the moment.

    Does anyone still do a jigg for these cartridges ?
    i have put a thermal products ribbon in as the original ribbon is but the machine prints the ribbon but doesnt pull the ribbon back into the cartridge.

    I have noticed that the original PC-50 cartridges i have got have got a much longer ribbon than the refills. ” Comes in handy when trying new things out ”

    Merry Christmas Guys and a properous New Year to Everyone

    Paul,
    I have just been given a roland pc50 from a school that was closing down.I have done a test print and it prints great. I have managed to get the roland to cut, but it refuses to print from corel draw X4. You mentioned that there are a few trick that has to be done before you can print from corel, can you help me?
