I am having a little issue with my printer and until I can get some board fuses I am just thinking ahead.
Where is the best/cheapest place to buy a printhead and cable from?
I am based in the UK but do not mind international delivery.
Many Thanks
Sean
Can I test this fuse with a multimeter with the board still in the machine connected?
The Machine has been knocked off, disconnected and discharged?
Sean
Does someone have a picture of the layout of the motherboard and positioning of fuses that could have possibly blown.
Desperation setting in!!!
Thanks
Sean
Do these fuses just clip in?
Or are they simply soldered to the board?
What I am asking is "Is it a relatively easy job soldering them in and will someone with basic soldering skills be up to the job?"
Does anyone have a picture of where these fuses are?
thanks
Sean

I will check them in the morning.
Is their any special way of powering down the machine (disconnecting) that I should be aware of?
I just don't want to make anything worse.
Cheers
Sean
I am in the UK so that is not an option!
Also a fuse only pops for a reason (I was trained as an electrician many years ago) so repairing the fuse may not help.

Our VJ 1604 has stopped printing.
I set a print of earlier and realised there was a wrong colour on it as it was printing.
So as usual I stopped the file processing on the computer and canceled the print on the printer.
I changed the colour and set it of once again.
I was out of the room for a...
This is the sensor on the rear being to sensitive.
Can sometimes be the branding on the liner causing this.
Just cover it over mine has for 4 years.
Just never let the stock run out!!!!!

I do not think it is advisable fixing a 8ft x 60ft banner to a chain link fence as it is way to big and it will cause loads of damage either to the chain link or even ripping the posts up.
I have our advertising 20'x5' banner on a fence into our industrial estate.
After 3 years it has had 3...
As of today I have changed my company policy.
If someone comes in my shop and "wants a cheaper option".
They will be told "The cheaper option is not an option if the job is to be done correctly"
They will be handed a rather large disclaimer revoking us of any responsibility due to them insisting...
Hey some good replies here.
Firstly I always wanted to use the more expensive materials and yes he had spoke to other sign companies and this is were he got the idea for the foamex.
At one point he wanted to flex a banner across the whole thing but was warned away from that.
The panels do have...
I can't force customers into spending more money I can only advise.
Yes I should of walked away from this job. But this guy was insistant and he knew the problems and issues cutting corners would raise. Sadly all they see is how much cheaper it is!
Luckily being foamex it caused no damage and it...
LOL that is exactly what I told him at the time of placing the order.
Previous to this it had 2 pieces of 1/4" plywood as a fascia!!!!
It is just a shame he thinks this is my problem.

Since about the may of last year this customer had contacted us to refurbish the sign on their shop.
At last in early December he gave us the go ahead.
The sign was a 36' x 4' light box with acrylic panels, but the 2 middle panels had been removed by the previous owner leaving 16' blank.

You do realise the printer should NEVER be turned off (On?Off Button on front panel)?
When closing down at night it should be put to sleep not turned off.
Do not worry I only found this out last year.
If you knock it off with the cards in it will require restting when you switch back on...
