Probably one or few blown transistors.

S&F Supplies successfully serving northeast east region for decades as far as I know.

99% try/fail enthusiasts end up with even more expensive replacements. I understand most of you guys technically handy but even with head replacement there are so many tiny little nuances that even service manuals fail to describe. Everything comes with time invested in reading and learning...

Clean encoder strip and detail recalibrate your print/cut. If cut offset on crop cut, adjust crop mark VR on service.

Increase vacuum by 5 and decrease heat to 200-210.

There is not such a manual. SMK3 is all about replacing certain individual parts which is clearly described on service manual. Replacing and calibrating certain parts requires skills accordingly.

Can you send a small print/cut job on left and right side and then post the result picture here?

Check media flanges and left pinch rollers. Check feed motor hours, run feed motor aging test. Clean grit encoder.

Could be bias/horizontal, the physical alignment. Nozzle test print would show clearly where to dig.

That cable will disable the ink tank board thus technically should prevent system from initializing it during the boot.

Hmm... turn off the printer, open printer’s chassis cover, disconnect cable from “CN8” slot of servo board and run the printer again. Just curious what will happen...

Air leakage due to improper seal. Flushing position adjustment and capping station stopper adjustment.

You need to adjust crop mark voltage “VR” settings in service menu. Recommended range 2.7V +- 0.2

Load it in service mode where cleaning procedure skipped during boot up.

Test print would be nice.

A new sensor should come along with strip as long as I know.

Go to Menu->Image Quality Plot->Scan Axis Check. If there any defects in the encoder strip, it will be shown on the pattern. Also make sure you clean the encoder with regular water and lint free cloth. Something telling me you have to replace the encoder strip. If you are on NY or tristate area...

Have you swapped flex cable from tool carriage to servo board? Seems like you have force problem on scan direction. Try this: 1. Under user menu go to CUTTING MENU->CALIBRATION->SCAN SETTING and set the value to 0 2. Perform PRINT-CUT ADJUSTMENT under user 3. Perform ADJUST-BIDIR under user...

Did you do limit initialization?

Depends on thickness.
