Make sure the cable that connects the main board and servo board is plugged in properly. If that is good, then the servo board or main board could be damaged electronically. My guess would be servo board as it handles the motors.

Not all DX7 printers are setup the same but should be similar. The dampers are inside the head. The general procedure is to empty the machine of ink, disconnect the ink lines from the dampers, pull the dampers out, clean the manifold with cleaning solution and then slide the new ones on. You...

Most Epson print heads are rated for 6 billion fires. In my experience that means about 3 to 5 years although for dye sub it tends to be more like 18 months to 2 years. I have seen a solvent DX5 last for over 10 years.

Since you have the tech manual, go to page 336. It has the testing procedures to figure out which board or head might be causing the issue. I'm thinking power surge only because the error is electrical in nature. The noise filter is related to the power supply. It makes sure the power to the...

You can try running a the GR/PR adjustment. It's in service mode and is the procedure to calibrate the pinch roller position. Unfortunately I can't give out service manuals but you should be able to find it on Google. That will have instructions on how to carry it out.

Here is a screen shot of where to look.

Ok so the fact that LED 8 turned off could mean both heads are fried. The tech manual advises changing both heads. However, the fact that LED 7 turned off could mean there are more electrical issues deeper in the machine. Did you have a power surge recently? Unfortunately at this point I would...

I don't know anyone in Kansas but you can try James McGill. He's based out of Kentucky but travels all over. 270 243-0599

Take a look at the HDC board and tell us which LEDs are lit up.

It's in the, "Quality" tab where you choose your profile. That way you can see the time difference between certain modes etc.

Is color correction turned on? If not, it tends to print way too much ink which makes things dark.

If I remember correctly, it ended up being an old filter and bad bottle holder.

Only way to do it is through a program like Parallels or a VM. Flexi stopped making a MAC version many moons ago.

I just set up a CJV150 for a customer who was using a JV3 and he's having a ball. I have installed about 100 Mimaki printer/cutters and they are good machines. One main difference between the print only and the print/cut is the pinch rollers. The print only has a better pinch roller setup that...

There are designated spots they need to be positioned at to work which I think you already know. It's a pretty common issue with the SP series to get a pinch roller position error. Usually you will also get a measurement of 0.0" as well. The fix is to replace the cut tool trailing cable.

If you do the math on a DX5 print head, you can get around 181,440 ml if you run it to it's expected life. It's not 100% accurate because it fires different sized dots but it's a close approximation. Interesting question!

To get around the problem quickly, use Illustrator, Scale down to 20" and then scale up in Onyx by 1200%. That will at least get your job going. Can't help with the Corel part though.

Their customer service is top notch for sure. The only gripe I have with them is they rasterize everything. Why ruin a perfectly good vector file!?

Maybe try printing to the bad printer with the good computer. That way you can start to see if the problem is software or printer.
