Printhead caps need to be changed first when you have this problem.
Also check the wiper alignment. I teach my customers to pop off the cover over the capping assembly by pressing the little tab that keeps the pins in the covers mounting holes.
Then when you do a printhead recovery you can see...
I agree with Signmeup.
I’ve been selling all of these makes for 20 years.
On solvent printers I sometimes add a BBC infrared heater which fully cures the ink so customers can laminate immediately after printing.
It’s one head firing in one position. If you replaced the K-C heads then it’s an electronic problem.
It is usually the cable in the carriage track folded in one area. Need to have service replacement.
Looks like a good deal.
Not a major company.
I’ve had friends buy things like this because they save 10-20 percent but in a year or 2 when they break, company and repairs are gone and then they just take up shop space while they buy equipment from the majors

We are occasionally seeing non curing problems on the newer latex printers that use optimizer rather than a heater for the printing area. High volume print shops have seen their curing heater get congestion in areas which gives you a wet banding look.
Technicians can come disassemble and clean...
If you have to print tons of vinyl tiled out on large images and want identical colors and lengths for tile matching and perfect wraps, go to Low Solvent OkiData Colorpainter Printers. The E64 is affordable and faster than the best HP latex printers. The M64 will print a 150' roll in 2 hours but...
I've seen many adhesion issues on several materials. Never had anyone concerned about Coroplast because they are short term signs. Shops that are printing on acrylic can have issues when cutting with a router afterwards.
Once they pretreat the acrylics with an adhesion promoter, the problem...
I have had many customers experience this problem- primarily with clear acrylics. Many started spraying with Bulldog adhesion promoter and eliminated the problem. Supply 55 also has some good products for this.
