Hi, we have a roland camm-1 cutter plotter. It has been showing "fan error" on the display these last few days but would correct itself when turned off and on again. Now though,when I put vinyl in and send the blade across to prepare to cut it comes all the way back to the right. I then manually sent the blade over again using the left arrow button and hit enter but when I send something to cut the vinyl rolls out a few inches and stops. Do you have an idea of what may be causing this? hank you for your time, Kevin

I had a similar problem. The issue was that I would receive a "fan error" notice but the fan was still spinning when the error displayed and then the machine would stop. I took plotter to my garage, removed the covers and used my air compressor to blow out the dust from the fan and the circuit boards. When I blew out the fan, a ton of dust and "dots" from the punched material came flying out. After a thorough cleaning, I put it back together and have not had the problem since - it works like new. I think what happens is that the fan becomes clogged with dust and dots and slows the fan enough to send an error signal to the plotter. No dust, no dots, no error! Try that - hope it works for you!

I have a Roland Camm-1Servo GX-24, and I am getting a "Report" message and it's powering off or anything

It sounds like there might be an error with the internal software of your Roland Camm-1 Servo GX-24 vinyl cutter. Here are a few troubleshooting steps you can try:
  1. Check the manual: Refer to the user manual to see if there is any information on what the "Report" message might mean. The manual may also have instructions for resetting the machine or troubleshooting common issues.
  2. Check the connections: Ensure that all the cables and connections are secure and properly connected. Also, check if the power source is working correctly.
  3. Check the firmware: It's possible that the firmware of the machine has become corrupted or outdated. You may need to update the firmware by downloading the latest version from the Roland website.
  4. Perform a factory reset: If nothing else works, try performing a factory reset on the machine. This will erase all the user settings and restore the machine to its original factory settings. Refer to the user manual for instructions on how to perform a factory reset.
If none of these steps work, you may need to contact Roland customer support or a qualified technician to diagnose and fix the issue.

I have a Roland Camm-1 CX-24 cutting machine that has a parallel connection. I have recently bought a Dell Inspiron 1720 with a Windows Vista OS. I have a USB to Parallel cable to connect the two. I have...

connect the printer and the comp. and boot up....windows should recognize the new device.
did you add the plotter to "add printers" and its driver and to the correct port?
make sure your plotter is on and loaded and function key pressed.
also some cable manufacturers supply a driver...so download one if need be.
what software are you using? is the software cutter driver set to the correct printer and port?
(by default it never is)!!
