Using NEW GOLD DX4 printheads in you Roland SP VP LEJ LEC LEF PRINTERS 2023

[@BrandsRework-xi8vd]

very helpfull thanks Bro

[@reprint217]

Always a pleasure, glad it helped

[@trueba980]

Thanks for all the tips. Q: For a SP-540v at Digiprint , I could only find the oem cap tops (XC-540 Assy...), how do you identify the oem dampers and wipers? or buy them somewhere else?

[@reprint217]

For the wipers, part number is 1000003390 they are pretty important. The dampers you can get away with cheap ones on the 300v. They have a low defect rate compared to the VS model dampers. The aftermarket wipers are too hard and can cause issues.

Hi Mike, another informative video. Where cab I purchased the GOLD plated DX4 printheads and also, where can I purchase the OEM captops for a good price?

[@reprint217]

Hey Jon, digiprint supplies is where I buy both the printheads and captops. Gold head 491.00 captops I believe 27.00

[@namolokaman2393]

Thank you for the info. I have been burned by aftermarket captops and wipers, also! ☺Note: I have a Roland LEF-200 running an older version of the firmware ( v1.50 ). I just installed one of the newer gold DX4 printheads, and nothing is happening - printhead is not printing at all. Is the latest firmware ( v2.10 ) required with these new printheads?

[@reprint217]

There should be nothing in firmware to stop you from printing with the new heads. Check cables and fuse on mainboard

[@djmegax13]

very useful video. can it be use for mimaki jv3 eco solvent? or is it only for roland?

[@reprint217]

I honestly have never tried them in a Mimaki so can't recommend them.

Where's the best place to get OEM parts what company

[@reprint217]

If looking for Truevis parts, I highly recommend Joining the Roland Digital Printers group and connecting with Ernie Viveiros. He's a roland dealer and can sell to public, some dealers can't sell parts without installing. Digiprint-supplies.com is also one of my go to's

[@stuartcotterill9475]

Hey brother, is a Roland SP300v needing one printhead worth $600? I can replace the printheads, dampers etc all on me own.

[@reprint217]

The sp300v can still produce sellable output, and there are still some good ones out there. If working with small budget it can be a great tool to expand your business and help you grow. If can be in a good one for under 3k you will be alright. I'd still use one.

[@da_nk]

Did you say the gold will work in the SP 300v if both are replaced with gold?

[@reprint217]

Yes, they work just fine. Due to price increases and availability, I haven't ordered any in a while.

[@da_nk]

DigiPrint has them at same price as standard

[@urjnlegend]

My p5000 runs its cleanings just fine, i can see ink shootingnout the printhead and all. It wont print and nozzle checks come back non existant or hardly even there. 3 month old machine, ran cleanings every one or two weeks. Why do you think its doing that?

[@reprint217]

Typically, when your confident ink is going through the printhead, it is a fuse on the mainboard 99% of time

[@urjnlegend]

@reprint217 what does that fuse do? Can i go on your website incase i need support and can pay you for it?

[@reprint217]

Honestly, I do not know much about the p5000 I've never dissected one. There is a group on facebook my buddy leo now manages he knows the p5000 very well. facebook.com/groups/2035359889980675/?ref=share_group_link

[@urjnlegend]

@reprint217 im in his group, i didn't think to ask there because sometimes there isnt alot of true information and im not too well versed on it either. You do seem to know your stuff better than most people i've seen out here. I guess ill change this fuse out and update you, because i am totally stuck

[@reprint217]

Yeah just ask leo in that group. Great guy
