Roland VersaCAMM SP-540V Logo
Joyce S Posted on Jun 24, 2012

Roland Versacamm sp540v is not printing yellow or magenta. What could be causing this? We were out of town and it wasn't used for a few weeks.

This was a used machine and we had to have a service tech out to replace so things, but he got the heads working and it was printing ok until we had to leave it sitting for a few weeks.

Your print head dry out, cause is: no use! you should detach the tube between the pump and the caps, the one of magenta and yellow, insert a seringe in the tube (that comes from the cap) and suck some cc´s of ink, .then atatch the tube again and run one or two powerful cleanings, then run the test. A smart advise is: never turn off the machine in the main power, the machine when in stand by, does automatic a check and a cleaning process from time to time if needed.

Even with new inks, magenta and yellow won't print

The ink you replaced costs as much as a new printer that comes with ink. Get a new one.

you should have to use the syringe method to **** the ink before anything, then make a powerful cleaning, test, you may have to do it several cleanings and should be solved.

this sounds like a scan motor error. clean encoding strip and test. If still wavy remove scan sensor the one that reads the encoder strip, clean with alcohol, replace and test. if still bad replace encoder strip and the eye that reads it.
