  1. Need Help Flexi 21 Continuous Cutting on Graphtec FC9000

    Thank you for your reply/suggestion Joe... Much appreciated Sir! Actually, what I figured out was that (it appears) the continuous operation feature does not work using the segmented area reg marks. As soon as I changed 4 point type, it started reading jobs continuously without stopping and...
  2. Need Help Flexi 21 Continuous Cutting on Graphtec FC9000

    Hi All - I've been snooping around here for a little while now trying to learn as much as I can from you smart professionals however, I have a couple of issues I can't seem to get figured out... and they may be related actually. I've even spoken with SAi however to no avail. Please forgive me...
  3. Need Help Whole Magenta Block Missing Nozzle Check vj1204...

    Thank you both... Awesome advice! There WERE air bubbles... I changed out the dampers with new ones, did normal cleaning, now no more bubbles and magenta block is back! Whoo-hoo! We'll see if it holds but for now, things look good. Hopefully no leaks anywhere else...
  4. Need Help Whole Magenta Block Missing Nozzle Check vj1204...

    Hi All - I need a little guidance please. I installed a brand new oem printhead in my 1204 a week ago (maintenance station oem about 3 weeks ago). Since installing the head, I haven't printed a ton but enough to keep things moving and it has performed very well. Today however, as I was...
  5. Question Weird spots in black print...

    Awesome news... Thanks a lot Manuel! Unfortunately for me, this might be the end. I really want to make this work but it's proving to be quite an expensive venture. While trying to figure out my issue, sound of the printhead going across the wiper started to sound weird and now my new...
  6. GA Mutoh pinch rollers for vj1324...

    No, I have not... but I will now. Thank you AMGearhart!
  7. Question Weird spots in black print...

    Thanks Saturn! I tried alcohol initially and still had the issue. Unfortunately I went with the solvent cleaner next and perhaps not knowing how to properly do it, I think did more damage than good. So, as I think a couple people have mentioned on this forum, the culprit(s) appear to be the...
  8. GA Mutoh pinch rollers for vj1324...

    Hi All - I am in need of 68 pinch rollers that would fit a Mutoh vj1324. The black ones are what I need. Thanks so much!
  9. Question Weird spots in black print...

    Thanks henryp! I wiped them and took a good look at them and I agree... most of them look (and feel) contaminated. One side of most of them is sticky (how, I have no idea) and that sticky area is probably leaving something on the media disallowing the ink to adhere. Now all this makes perfect...
  10. Question Weird spots in black print...

    Hey Andy D! My printer is a Mutoh vj1324... and yes, I backed it up to show that the patterns seem to line up with the wheels... and yes, I "attempted" to clean them after this pic actually. What's the most effective way you've found to clean them?
  11. Question Weird spots in black print...

    Busy, busy weekend so not much time to work on this... however, I did manage to purge the black ink line and change out the black cart... no printing though. Hopefully I can get to that tonight to see the results. Thanks what the! I guess looking at those things will be the next step if the...
  12. Question Weird spots in black print...

    sorry for the delay... yep... it was quite warm...
  13. Question Weird spots in black print...

    That is actually what I did... 1440 and unidirection...
  14. Question Weird spots in black print...

    Thanks ewded! Yes, I did check to see if the areas were getting hot and they are.
  15. Question Weird spots in black print...

    This matter is getting more and more interesting by the day! I've tried (I think) every suggestion made here and yet things appear to be getting worse instead of better. Posted are the latest pics today... here is yet more new self adhesive so I'm convinced now it has nothing to do with the...
  16. Question Weird spots in black print...

    Great advice Andy... Thank you!
  17. Question Weird spots in black print...

    Thanks again Andy D! I am definitely going to revisit the rail lube for sure... but let me ask about the "too much ink" because a few have mentioned that. How do you regulate ink other than profiles? Can it be done another way. Can I tell the printer to use this profile but not "as much" ink...
  18. Question Weird spots in black print...

    Thanks Joe House! Yes, I did recently lubricate the rails. Perhaps I didn't do the best job wiping off the excess. I'll definitely check that out! I didn't use oil though, I used the silicone grease. Does that matter? Also, when printing those color boxes, it only shows up in black... no...
  19. Question Weird spots in black print...

    Thank you ewded! I can handle heat adjust in Flexi but how do you slow down the head on this machine. Sorry but really new to eco solvent printing and these printers.
  20. Question Weird spots in black print...

    Thanks Andy D! I guess... I mean that looks exactly like what those spots could be... but from where would that come? I mean I printed well for a while after the flush, then this showed up seems like out of the blue. I think I'm going to drain the black lines, change black ink cart and see...
