the yellow band going across means that head is bad, or the cable (or of course that board) over the years 3 of my black heads have gone bad that way IT'S ALWAYS POSSIBLE one of the capacitors is leaky, or one of the small transistors further back is bad. if you actually removed the...

That answers my question. (What happened first?) REALLY CAREFULLY unplug head cables & be sure 1 foil isn’t folded over. isn’t there 1 cable on this machine that is different? (It has 1 foil More or less than the other?) it is possible one of the large transistors that power the heads has...

what caused you to replace the 2 heads in the first place?

we have bought EVERYTHING from one of the auction services or from a shop going out of business. several of my guys say i never buy anything under 700 lbs. (probably true if you say 300 lbs.) when i bought my mutoh hybrid, it came from dallas tx in a church basement. we are in nj. i did really...

why yes, i suppose it is

i was thinking i would register an .EDU domain & give everyone a complimentary email address

the solution would be don't upgrade

very true! i am incredibly cheap. i only purchase new when i am cornered with no way out. ebay gives the widest audience but i have purchased many pieces of equipment within as little as 20 miles. several pieces i didn't have any intention of purchasing until i saw the offering

(1) buy a service manual. (2) do A simple voltage check comparing the working channel to the bad ones there are 4 pairs of transistors. From collector of the npn to emitter of the pnp is approx 41 Vdc. on each pair there is 41 volts from center pin to center pin. IS IT PRESENT ON ALL 4? IF YES...

it's too bad i can only click agree ONCE we have seen the sad experience of serious damage in transit make your time frame flexible one way or the other. if the worse happens, AND IT DOES, are you going to find a tech in a strange area, where you know no one, OR pay to fly a tech you trust out...

just wanted to be sure you didn't have to splice, introducing the chance of reversing the motor rotation. that would CERTAINLY give you excessive drag. i have gotten chinese motors with wrong connector,, etc & saw the chance of this happening to you

stupid question. was POLARITY obvious? did you end up splicing the wire? i imagine you would have quite a physical drag if the motor was wired in reverse

i am very sure it is NOT visible light in the days of repairing VCR's and different types of industrial equipment with infrared sensors,we used something like this...

there is an assumption that craigslist, offerup & facebook marketplace favor local pickup i have bought most of my equipment IN NOT WORKING CONDITION from online sellers from EBAY, CRAIGSLIST, OFFERUP AND FACEBOOK MARKETPLACE i listed them in descending order of price (i expect to pay the most...

andy BY THE WAY the floppies said Aldus, it was the year before Adobe bought photoshop from Aldus the people who developed it according to google, they developed it in 1990 & sold it for $34.5M in 1995

wow, 30 years ago, when my copy of photoshop came on (2 ) 1.44 floppies, i bought a copy of "adobe streamline" it was a great thing to be able to trace somethinng. we have come a long way

You know, Digi still makes a thing called USB anywhere. Like a usb print server would be, if it were smarter. you assign an up and have 1, 2, 4’ 8’ 16 usb devices. Rock solid. I have seen these run for 2 years without a reboot. we use them to virtualize a server where the program uses a dongle...

We almost always kill the little usb interface chip. SINCE YOU ARE ASKING BEFORE IT GOES BAD go to Walmart buy a usb hub in the aisle by the printers double face tape it to the back of the roland leave the cable plugged in to the printer, NEVER UNPLUG IT use An a to a extension from the pc a...

we are sidestepping this whole issue i think. i never found a paper that "liked" the mutoh, that i liked. we are still using photo 8 solvent paper on the old roland sc545ex (a lot of extra work for a 20 year old printer, kind of like insisting that your grandfather shovel the snow.) i got a...

this would be my guess.
