    thanks for your help, i believe you may have been correct!!!! did not suck any ink overnight
  4. Falcon Jr. Issue

    so do you think maybe it is not swollen caps? they did not look swollen to me, and i found it odd that black and color did it at the same time since last time it was color only. thinking about it, if your theory is corect and the pump was open, when i pulled the syringe i could maybe see where...
  5. Falcon Jr. Issue

    Today, I looked at my dampers and found them full, so I figured I would change them. While I had the printer apart, I noticed that my pump gears was covered in ink and upon inspection, found a hole in the line. I had a pump, so I pulled the maintenance station out and changed the pump. I put...
  6. Head Deflection

    On a Falcon Jr, if the nozzle check shows all of the nozzles, but a few are deflected, will the all eventually fire correctly if you keep soaking and cleaning? My magenta has several defelcted nozzles and they produce a white line about every 1/32" in colors that magenta is a part of. I have...

  8. Turn off Black on 62" Falcon Outdoor

    before you change the head, you might try a damper if you have not already. i had a black problem i thought and tech guy thought was a bad head but when he came out, he changed the damper and that fixed that problem. just a thought
  9. Where do you get your ink?

    i noticed signs+banners price a couple weeks ago and asked my local supplier if they would match that price and he told me that part of their agreement with mutoh was that they priced theirs at like 65.00 and no one could sell it cheaper, all resellers had to sell at the same price. but maybe...
  10. Weather?

    What kind of issues will changes in temperature and/or humidity cause in printing? I have been told it can cause differences if the same thing is printed when there is a change in temp or humidity from the first time it is printed. Is this true? Thanks
  11. Need help with Falcon Jr Problem

    thank you for your help. i am hoping that capping station is the problem. seems to be ok for a couple days now after changing the station, just think a couple nozzles may have gotten stopped up by the pad touching the head. but has worked ok for a day or two
  12. Need help with Falcon Jr Problem

    i cannot really see that it leaked out around the pump. i think it all went to the waste bottle. after reading some other post with similar problems, i am about to decide it could be the station. i was just hoping it was not a serious problem like a mainboard hanging up in clean mode or...
  13. Need help with Falcon Jr Problem

    I hope someone can help me with a problem on my Falcon Jr. Thanks in advance! Thursday, I woke up and ran a cleaning cycle. When it was over, my CMY were all empty. I figured that was a wierd coincidence they would all be empty and the waste bottle was full, but it never gave me the beeping...
  14. Mutoh Falcon Outdoor 46 Problem..HELP!!

    I recently purchased an older Falcon 46" off craigslist for $300. I have a Jr., so I figured it would make a good companion. I had a tech up here working on my Jr printing problem and while he was here, had him overhaul the 46" When I bought it the guy told me he did not know what was wrong...

  17. Falcon Jr Problem

    This problem may be similar to one in another post, but I will ask it anyway. I have a Falcon Outdoor Jr that I purchased new two years ago but have not put into service until last month. The black ink has given me nothing but problems from day one. When I do a nozzle check in the morning...

  19. Ink Question

    I have recently aquired some Mutoh Eco-Ultra Ink cartridges that have an expiration date of 11/2007. I was wandering if anyone has used ink that has been out of date for some time and what the results of that has been. I would like to use this ink since I have it, but do not want to tear up a...
