Roland SP540 Lightbar Configured
Hi All
Long time lurker, first time poster…. be nice 🙂
Firstly, please note that I am posting this on behalf of a "friendly rival" as I think there is something very wrong somewhere.
They have a Roland SP540 configured with a LIGHTBAR. Everything is fine except the amount of print heads they are going through. At a rough guess the machine is about two years old and they have been through at least 5-7 print heads that I know of, it is likely to be more. I found this out as I had asked them to run a couple of jobs for me personally and each time I asked they were waiting on head replacement.
I got talking to them and they explained the issue with the Magenta ink which seems to have a much heavier viscosity and is causing the head to block.
Does anyone know of any common issues with Colorific ink or this machine configured with that ink?
Lastly, the printer prints a maximum of 5 meters a day (if that) of MDP only. The supplier of the machine has been excellent in supplying a new head each time and this post is not to insult/embarrass them.
