ripples in vinyl are generally caused by the heat, either too high or sitting on the heater when not in use, like if you print and leave the printer on it will generally ripple the vinyl, if not right away overnight as it cools down.

Great review! We are about to order this machine.

We upgraded from a BN20 to a Roland Truvis SG2-300 for our heat press business, the productivity gains were amazing. The only con at the time was the lack of profiles other than the standard ones that came with the machine. This is all sorted now and we haven't looks back! The only wish I would have is that media should be able to be loaded from the front like HP machines, but for some reason (just because HP do it?) the think it's cool the we have to pull the machine away from the wall load the media and push it back. Roland, do better.

I have a VG3-540, beauty of a machine! I was instructed to never leave the rollers down when you’re not using it. That’s most likely your issue with the ripples developing the next day.

Never leave rollers down or vinyl loaded. That will cause headcrashes when selfcleaning.

I have found with all the different machines I have had in 20 years, avoid leaving the pinch rollers down on the media. Also paper that is sensitive to moisture and temperature its best to leave the air conditioner on at room temperature as well, this will save cockling of the paper the next day or at least have the air con on 4 hours prior to printing so everything climatizes. I am enjoying my VG3 as well. :)

Ripples in the vinyl is humidity. Also, not good to leave rollers down overnight

Is it full time business or hobby?

[@SPDesignsFL]

Full time business.

I've had this machine for a couple weeks now and it's done nothing but cost us money. There are way to many problems and not enough positives that I've encountered. Would not recommend this machine to anyone at this point.
