Hi all. I've just bought a Roland TS-30 and just can't get the driver to work in Windows 10. I read that the MDX-40A driver will work and it seems to install ok but when I plug in the usb the pc adds the TS-30 as an unknown device with a generic printer driver. I've tried to force it to use the .inf for the 30 & 40a but the print spooler just sits there not communicating.

 

Please help.

 

Thank you.

Fixed my own problem.

 

Upgrading my TS-30 to MDX-40A how do we use a Z probe sensor with this? And what is the pin out for the 3.5mm jack on the right side of the machine if this is the Z sensor (not left side)

Did anyone save these drivers?

 

I don't mind getting our TS-30 working on Windows 7 or 10, just need a way to get it working!

 

Ok, so we recently had to get this working from Windows 7 32-Bit to Windows 10 64-Bit, in case any of you are still using the TS-30's we had to update the Firmware from a Windows 7 machine to the Firmware for the MDX40A, this is what we had to do...

 

On a Windows 7 machine, download the UpgradePackage.exe from 3D | Download | Roland DG Corporation (aka http://download.rolanddg.jp/en/upgrade/program/UpgradePackage.exe) and run the package to extract the installer files into a directory.

 

To update the Firmware you will need to be physically at the printer for the multiple times you have to press certain button combinations. Run the MDX40AUpdater.exe and follow the instructions, when asked to install the Printer, use the same information that @adhutton provided years ago for installation. (http://www.edugeek.net/attachments/forums/hardware/17745d1365160100-roland-ts-30-drivers-_installation_instructions_for_rotocamm_ts-30_printer_driver_march_2013.pdf) and select the drivers from the WindowsDriver subfolder.

 

Once this has been done, you can now configure the device on Windows 10 64-Bit.

 

On Windows 10 64-Bit, download the latest 64-Bit drivers from here https://www.rolanddga.com/support/products/milling/modela-mdx-40-3d-milling-machine (http://download.rolanddg.jp/en/upgrade/program/25D_WIN8X64_v120.zip) and extract to a folder.

 

Go to Control Panel -> Hardware and Sound -> Devices and Printers, at the bottom of the list should be an 'Unspecified' item named MDX-40A. Right click on this and select Properties.

 

Select the Hardware tab and click on RolandMDX-40A and then click Properties. Click the Change settings button on the Window that appears. Select the Driver tab and click Update Driver.

 

You will be asked 'How do you want to search for drivers?', select 'Browse my computer for driver software', then 'Let me pick from a list of available drivers on my computer'.

 

Click 'Have Disk...' and select the location of the 64 Bit Drivers, 'Roland MDX-40A' should now appear, click 'Next' and when asked if you like to install the Roland Printer, click 'Install'.
