  1. Need Help Can I use a 2.5A fuse for a vj 1304 in a vj x1324?

    As long as the fuses are the same rating, you can use the one from the 1304. The F2 fuse in my experience is 750mA not 2.5A so make sure before you swap them.
  2. Question Give-away - pick up only

    Here in Denver we simply chuck it out in the alley and it's usually gone within a couple hours. If you don't find a home for it I'd be willing to bet that works for you too.

    Sounds like the fuse is probably good. Unfortunately it could be some other electrical issue in the machine.
  4. SP540 Precise print area length measurement

    As my mother always says, it's a trick I learned in the Army. She was never in the Army.
  5. MIMAKI CJV 30 MAINBOARD AND OLD ELECTRONICALLY WORKED PRINTHEAD .

    Most voltmeters have a setting for continuity. It should have a little speaker icon next to it and it beeps if the fuse has continuity. It should also just read 0 on the OHM setting.

    It could still be blowing for some reason. I'd check it with a volt meter to confirm.
  7. Need Help Graphtec CE3000-120

    It's pretty old of a cutter to bring back from the dead. But an old Windows XP computer and Flexi should work.
  8. MIMAKI CJV 30 MAINBOARD AND OLD ELECTRONICALLY WORKED PRINTHEAD .

    If everything works fine except it doesn't print, check the F13 fuse on the main board for continuity. If it's blown, the head won't fire.

    I don't have one anymore unfortunately. If you can find an old one, it should work. Newer boards don't have the jumper anymore and just have different part numbers depending on the model.

    We've all been there!
  11. SP540 Precise print area length measurement

    Tape some material to the end of the banner sheet. It will allow the pinch rollers to continue to hold the material and cover the sensor it needs to.
  12. Powerpoint files... Can we use them?..Is there a way to use them?

    If you have Power Point you should be able to print the file but choose the PDF print driver instead of a printer. That will save it as a PDF.
  13. Printer Problems

    Magenta or green hue in grays is a fairly common issue with CMYK printing. The fix is to make and maintain your own profiles. If you can't do that, it's basically down to trial and error with your CMYK values. In your case, since it's a solid object with no gradients or images, you should be...
  14. Recession

    If we do end up in a recession, the used equipment market will come alive again. The last decade it's been cheap to borrow money so people have just been buying new. We used to sell used equipment all the time but now it's very far and few between. Once that cheap money isn't an option anymore...
  15. Why do some PDFs print cyan in transparent areas?

    That looks like it should be working fine then. It must be something different. I'd be willing to bet it's a color input or output profile though.
  16. Why do some PDFs print cyan in transparent areas?

    It's probably the rendering intent settings in Rasterlink. Rasterlink defaults to two different rendering intents for vector and bitmap. This is fine if your file is all solid objects as the RIP just renders whatever is on top. But if you have a raster transparency layered on top of a vector...

  18. Thoughts on new equipment installation and training

    I've installed printers for over 13 years and have leaned a lot about how people like to be trained and what works well. I learned very early on that the goal of the initial training should be to teach the customer just enough that they can get a basic job done. If you go into the bells and...
  19. Machine Reading "Y over current Ave" when in use.

    It's possible. I am always reluctant to recommended motors because in 13 years working on these machines I've only seen 1 motor ever fail. Seeing as this model is a little older, maybe the motor has just run it's course.
