Hold Up/Down arrows when booting to see if it at least goes into Parameter mode. Might be a bad EPL board.

I would run some flush through the system, might just be gelled up ink screwing things up.

Might need to try and find a manual for the stepper driver, some require different modes to do jog tests.

Check the wiring from the controller to the servo. Might be a bad servo or a wire lug cameoose. Or potentially controller issues.

Circulation is automatic with white ink sets, service mode just unlocks all the extra # menus.

I just want to see a CJV150-30 in person. The thing must be adorably tiny.

White ink circulation only happens in the subtank, as these are not thru-flowing heads. Try doing a subtank discharge and refill on head 4 and see if it times out on the subtank refill. While the solenoid valve (no needles in bottle system) might actuate, it can get clogged bad over time. Keep...

Looks like pretty decent parts in the machine, copies of higher end gear, but still quite decent. Here's a video that shows how to do a jog/test on the servo. If the servo jogs fine, check the wiring to the driver.

Time to pull out the multimeter and get to troubleshooting.

Just fond a software emulator for most USB dongles that I use as of late.

This thread is well over a year old, if you need firmware updates, your best bet is a dealer. Mimaki doesn't publish their firmware publicly.

F699ZZ for the idler pulley. 629-2Z for the drive pulley, for anyone rebuilding both pulleys. Doing that now, notes for me, future me, and everyone else who might need it.

I just have my coworker who is an amazing rigger come along in a bigass box truck with a lift gate. Costs almost $1500 to move a jfx500-2131 from south Illinois to Oklahoma city, but worth it.

Basically have to either feed cleaner from cap, or pull head and set it in a shallow dish of cleaning solution.

Pull cleaner with a syringe on the head, don't push. Might just be wedging the clog further into the nozzle plate.

Emulation to run the software is one thing, but drivers can be far trickier in some cases.

Buy a copy?

As far as I can tell, their drivers are only compatible with x86 32 bit and x64 architectures.

Umm, ok? Any time I see an "Enquire Now" button on a site, I go elsewhere.
