The AS5 inks are super cheap compared to the SS21 but they are brand new so you probably will have a hard time finding a lot of user experience so far. I'm installing a new JV100 with the AS5 inks in about a week. Will be my first one with that ink set as it was just released in the US. If I...

The spec for cutting master 4 only goes up to CC2021. If you just upgraded to CC2022, it's probably going to take a little bit for them to catch up unfortunately. Can you go back to CC2021? I'm still on CS6 so I don't know how it works these days lol.

I though they had them on there but I just double checked and they aren't for some reason. Try Ordway Sign Supply in southern Cali.

The most effective option is the flat bed for sure. It cuts the labor of applying out completely and also the vinyl cost. But the machines are much more expensive. 23" is an unfortunate size because it's over the max of most desktop flatbeds which would be in your budget range. You'd need to get...

I'm with APC on this one. It sounds like the ink has just separated and needs to be flushed/refilled.

Air slowly filling the dampers is a sign that the seal is bad for sure. Make sure to change the o-rings when you change the dampers. They seal the connection between the ink line and damper. When air gets in the system, ink naturally flows back to the cartridge which is counter-intuitive to a...

Did the setting that tells Flexi to Hold the job maybe get changed? Maybe the cut file is being sent but it's being sent to the cutter which isn't ready to accept the job yet? Just spitballing.

Flushing the head can cause damage internally. If you pushed solution through one channel and it came out of another one at any point during your flush, that signifies damage. When you flush you should be able to see each nozzle spray solution individually as well. You can actually see the...

The first error is the ambient temperature being too low. Is the printer in a climate controlled area? The second error straight up means the heater on head 1 is broken. The only problem is that head 1 is not the white head.

The cleaning solution pumps into the cap only during the custody and nozzle washes. During cleanings it does not.

Also, don't tighten it down too much. The manifold should not look bent after installing it.

Make sure the CutContour is setup as a spot color and not process. Maybe the setting got changed by accident somehow?

Unfortunately the capping adjustment really only tells the carriage where to stop in certain parts of the cleaning cycle. To get the cap more centered you want to take a look at the part of the carriage that hits the station. Yours looks like it hitting late. I've even shimmed that area before...

Air dusting with a normal air can shouldn't harm anything. You just want to get dust and debris out of there that may be causing a short or bad connection. You might have a blown transistor on that board judging by the picture. I don't see any burn marks but it can be damaged internally. I do...

I would take the carriage cover off and make sure you don't have a leaking damper or something. The cap top seems to be off center as well. It doesn't have to be perfect but yours is very close to the edge of the head which could be causing ink to squirt out during the cleaning cycles.

You've got a short somewhere in the system. Usually it's going to be around the head cables and the boards they connect to. Look for ink splatter, damage, or corrosion on the cable leads and replace as needed. Never hurts to air dust the connectors too. Just make sure that you unplug the machine...

I was going to say head as well. I've had similar issues with JFX200 installs with the white and it ended up being the head. But it seems like you've already tried that. If it were me I would make sure the firmware is up to date. The Ricoh Gen 5 heads have had a couple revisions that required...

Other than the deflecting nozzles, it looks like the ink isn't curing well. Try upping the heat settings and maybe try another profile. A feed calibration is in order for sure.

The machine doesn't actually know what percentage of it is full. It just guesses and when the high sensor trips, it goes to 100%. Since yours is stalling at 98% my best guess would be a clogged valve, bad high sensor, or even the cartridge being empty and not flagging the machine properly so...

The only reason I don't post prices is because we end up getting calls from people who saw a post from 10 years ago and the price has changed drastically.
