Prepare your Roland ready for Christmas

Roland Machines:

The following advice has been recommended by Roland DG UK directly, please follow it with care.

The Roland Printer pretty much looks after itself. However, there are a couple of actions you can take to ensure you will be back up printing straight away upon your return.
  1. Ensure your cartridges have some ink to use to run through. As long as there is enough ink in the printer it will clean itself and circulate the ink to keep it happy and healthy.
  2. There is no need to flush your printer.
  3. Keep your Roland plugged in, with the switch on the back turned on. This will enable it to run it's built in maintenance clean without supervision.
  4. Check and empty the drain bottle before you leave to avoid any spillages.
  5. If you're using white and metallic, the very last thing you need to do is tell printer that they've been shaken. To do this, whilst the printer is turned on, take out the white / metallic cartridges, tip them end to end a couple of times before putting them back in. This will essentially re-set the clock on the printer until you need to shake them again.
