This printer is about 4 years old and is a work horse. I do printing work part time. So, it hasn't been used much. I have used 9 or 10 ink cartridges per year. It is in need of a new printhead and I need to move on. I have the service manual and service program. But, the best advice you...
I've had my s40600 printer for about 3.5 years. And it has worked very well until February when about 75% of jets in channel 1 (cyan) disappeared. Because I have the service manual and service program, I thought about replacing the head and duct assy and pump assy myself. Then I thought...
Is there an easy way to access the ink drain tubing that's under the cap tops on a s40600 to see if one is plugged? Or is this something that only the most competent tech can do? All of a sudden I have lots of jet dropout in the top 5 lines of C1. Running cleaning cycles just makes it worse...
I've had this printer for 3 years. There were no real problems the first year. Then, one day, I ran a light cleaning and it wouldn't stop cleaning. As soon as the 3.5 minute cleaning cycle ended, it started another cleaning cycle, and another, and another. It did this for 5 times, before I...
A customer emailed me a file to print, laminate and cut. The file has 165 8.5"X11" pages with the cut lines around each page. Each page has a different identifying number in it. Looks to me like Flexi v21 can only import files 2 way: one at a time or all of them at once, side by side, in one...
In the middle of a 4X8 print, nozzles drop out causing horizontal banding on a reflex blue background. Nozzle test was 100% when the print started. Does anyone know what causes this? Also, can you pause in the middle of a print, do a head cleaning, and resume the same print? I've never had...
Is there a way to slow the speed that the plotter advanced vinyl? I'm not talking about cutting speed. That's not a problem. For example, if I have a 15' job to cut in 48" cut vinyl and the plotter always cuts "holes" first. Let's say that there is a hole at the beginning and a hole at the...
I'm looking at a Muse60 plotter sold by Signwarehouse. If you have ever used one of these, please share your opinion of it. If you have heard anything about it or even the smaller Muse plotters, share that, too. Thanks.
I'm looking for a Summa D140 or D160 plotter in good, working condition. Might consider other brands, but nothing with only the 4 corner registration marks. Need something that's at least 54" and will put reg marks every 10 to 12 inches along both sides of a contour cut file.
A couple of weeks ago, I had a 4'X8' print to contour cut. It was printed on 3M IJ180cv3 cast vinyl and laminated with 3M 8515 cast laminate. My plotter is a Summa D120. I loaded the vinyl in the plotter like a big sheet and fed it forward enough to see that tracking was OK. I sent the file...
I don't know if this is a Flexi problem, a CorelDRAW problem, or a me problem. Maybe some one here can help fix the problem. My best customer sends me Corel files to print. So, I have to open the file in Corel 19 and export it as a PDF file so that Flexi 12 can work with it. For example...
I always liked Forward 13oz banner. But Grimco has stopped selling it. I was going to try their Briteline 13oz banner, but was turned off by all the bad reviews. Now they don't sell it any more. Grimco's Duratex 13oz gloss gets some bad reviews, too. Any suggestions for a good, everyday...
Up for sale for $1000 is one Gerber Edge LE thermal printer. Some call it the Edge 1. It is in good working condition with no blown pixels. I bought it as a backup printer and have never needed it. So, it needs a new, working home. Local pickup is very much welcomed, but shipping is doable...
Up for sale here is one, Graphtec Cutting Pro FC7000-75 plotter/cutter, which I am selling for $500. I am the original owner. I make a few signs part-time, so this plotter has seen light use. For cutting out lettering and graphics in cut vinyl, it works great. No problems. A few years ago...
Up for sale here is one (1) lightly used Mutoh ValueJet 1204 large format, eco-solvent printer. I am the original owner. I bought another printer a few weeks ago. So, I need to find a new home for this printer. ALL jets are firing as they should except for 2 black jets. I think those 2...
