  1. JV3 160 Print Issues

    So you changed the head and it went away or the new head went out? Have you had any problems since you changed your head? I have used a swab on the "face" of the head gently and it didn't seem to help.

    What size Syringe are you using, mine is a 60 ml and the tip (where a needle goes) is about 1/8". Looking at the ink line to the damper, there is no way that it will fit over my syringe tip. It will stretch it out and then won't fit over the dampers nipple part. I did check the Print head...

    Ok, So I replaced the dampers on the Cyan head. Put it all back together and now I can't get any ink into the Cyan dampers. I tried the syringe technique directly to the damper and got nothing. Reinstalled the dampers and ran an Ink Fill Up Cycle, got nothing. Removed the rear panel and...

    the right dampers should arrive today - hopefully I can change them out in a timely fashion. Probably won't know until tomorrow if it worked. Seems the problem only persists in the morning for the first few feet of printing. Sure is getting annoying. @ Artbot: The ink pattern seems random...

    Shut Up! An Entire plan?? How long did that take? How many installers?! I'll bet that was fun!

  7. Whats the strangest thing you've wrapped?

    Me too. How did that work out when you tried to pull it off?
  8. This is just Crazy.

    :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO: Exactly what I was thinking!
  9. Whats the strangest thing you've wrapped?

    Well today marks a new level of wrapping for me personally. I've been working with vinyl for about 6 years and I've been doing complete vehicle wraps for about 3 years now. I have around 150 vehicle wraps under my belt ranging from HHRs to PT Crusiers up to Utility Vans to as big as a couple...

    The dog house meaning the holding station where the wiper sits when not in use? I just cleaned in there not to long ago as well as changed out the sponge in there b/c the original was not longer working and it was leaking all down into that space below. What a mess. Ever since I changed out the...

    Cleaning did little to help the situation other then frusterate me even further...looks like I'm gonna be trying that line switching procedure... This couldn't have happened 3 months ago when we weren't about to get really busy....

    The capping station was recently replaced. Probably August of last year. The head and the capping station are cleaned on a weekly if not sooner basis so I know those are clean/free from gunk... Head wash just finished so I'm gonna load a file and see what it does...

    Running a head wash now....I think I'll do flips and a cart wheel if this helps cause right now its only getting worse....I wonder if this is all because we switched to Lysons...
  14. new mowed grass....

    Our sense of smell is the highest rated and most accurate nerual memory recalling sense. The slightest hint of something can bring a flood of memories so over whelming we can litterally lose ourselves in the thought process. On that note... Who doesn't love the smell of grass, freshly...

    I have no idea how to do that...and the dampers...what part of the carridge is that? We haven't done a ton of maitenance on this machinge so the parts are fairly new to me. I know the heads, I know the capping station. I know the ink lines in the rear service panel directly behind the...

    I doubt its the wiper - I change that regularily and Iv'e changed the wiper at least twice since this problem has begun. The Capping station is only a few months old - we changed that out a while back when we were getting spotty test run results. Since then our test pattern has been just fine...

    All the print heads are Factory installed original heads from purchase - 2.5 years ago. So I would not be surprised if the head was just going out. We switched to Lyson in the Fall of 09 so 6-9 months ago. Again, I would not be surprised if it was the inks themselves, except we are only...

    Ok, so attached are a couple of pictures of a morning routine we've started recently to correct an issue with our color Cyan. For a short while, in the morning when we first fire up the printer and get it all set for its first print file of the day, I have noticed that the Cyan head fires...
