The cartridge reports to the machine and program in two different ways - one through a chip on the cartridge and secondly by a tab that emerges as the ink decreases. I stated the other day - I…"

DanielTF3 replied to Gilbert Herrera's discussion Ink Reading"I have heard of people using the mask 50 times... But i find that difficult to be the truth if you're using it on materials or garments which give off alot of fluff."
Steven Jackson - Admin replied to Gilbert Herrera's discussion Ink Reading"The machine will tell you to replace the cartridge.
I re use mask until it will not lift the media off of its backing anymore"

Have a SP300 and have checked the ink level. Slots 3 & 4 are blank. I have used the unit and do not know how long these two are empty. Will the unit signal a "Replace Ink Cartridge" or do I automatically change the cartridge when it shows blank level?Also, when pressing the shirts with Heat Soft Polyester Transfer Mask, how many times can the piece of mask be used. What will notify me that the piece is no longer to be used?Any help is greatly appreciated.Thank YouSee More

Steven Jackson - Admin replied to Gilbert Herrera's discussion Banding?"John - easy on the slowing head advice! That is for spcific issues only and was recommended in your case due to a know issue on your printer with a specific media. I do NOT recommend slowing a head for banding issues.
Banding is caused by a…"
Gilbert Herrera replied to Gilbert Herrera's discussion Banding?"John - I am using the same media I have used in the past without issue. I am not at shop and do not remember exact name/number of media. I will certainly try slowing down the speed.
Thank You"
John H. replied to Gilbert Herrera's discussion Banding?"Yep I see it, what are you printing on and do you have the correct profile selected, some times slowing the head speed down will allow it to drop more ink but you need to make sure the profile is correct for the media your using."

Have a graphic that was emailed to me for some labels. Not sure what "banding" is but I think I just experienced it. I am using a Versacamm sp300. After printing the labels, I noticed that the black part of the graphic had some sort of vertical streaks. It is not a solid print. Would appreciate some direction as to what is causing this. I use Corel x4. I have attached a picture of it and hope they are noticeable. Thank YouSee More

How to get a file into VersaWorks
Posted on March 19, 2012 at 11:19am 12 Comments 0 Likes
Hi to all. Just acquired a used sp-300 and am anxious to get going. I have tried to transfer a couple of files from Corel into VersaWorks but have not been successful. From Corel I tried Exporting one file as EPS, another as JPEG and one as TIF. I then send it to desktop and from there I drag it into VW. It quickly gives me the message "Stopped processing the input file C:\Users\trooper Desktop\eagle flag-shortcut.lnk "Unsupported Format"
I have a Windows7 laptop with Corel…
