Success! I replaced the other dampers - all 4 dampers replaced now and it is working! Thanks again for all of the suggestions.

Thanks for responding. I am using Mutoh inks and the yellow is a brand new bag of ink with an expiration date of later this year. I am stumped.....

Update - I changed out the dampers for the magenta ink (2 dampers on the right side) and now I am getting yellow ink blobbing onto the media and also puddling like the magenta was before. I know, the obvious answer is to replace the other 2 dampers which I will do today but wondered if anyone...

Thanks everyone for the replies. I haven't been able to use the machine and I took a stab at it today. The issue appears to be a bunch of magenta ink pooling just to the right of the media. I think the head is dragging this extra ink and just depositing it as it goes back and forth. I cleaned up...

Pictures tell the story. I searched a bunch before posting - it looks like on other machines the thoughts are bad head, bad damper etc. I just replaced the head and the dampers with factory parts less thank 6 months ago. I also checked the capping station and replaced the wiper. It will print...

Update and thanks for all who contributed. Turns out as soon as I replaced the cap top the printer came to life. All printing normally with the new head installed. Thanks again! I now have an issue that the printer keeps asking for a head cleaning. While its printing etc which disables...

Dampers are empty - here is a picture of the head *before* I replaced the head and the dampers were full. The tech said he was able to pull some ink into one of the dampers but couldn't get it to print anything. He didn't replace any parts. Captop and felt pad not replaced. One thing that...

Thanks for the tip - I will try filling them up to prime them

Long story is the head got stuck outside of the maintenance station and I was away and didn't know so it dried out. It wouldn't print at all so I just bought a new head and installed it. Now I can't get the new head to pull any ink into the dampers. My maintenance station works and I have tried...

Hi do you have any discount codes? I am going to buy an aluminum 52" (I think I need for 4x8 coroplast) and a 26" Yard sale tool Thanks!

Sent you a pm

Thanks for the feedback. I suspected having top heat would be an advantage. I have a 64" printer so it would make sense to go for the lager laminator. Used is $4900 and new for that Seal base 64 is at least double that.

We need a laminator for low production in house. Thoughts on buying a new Seal 54el for $5700 Or a used 62c on ebay for $4900? I am only working with printed vinyl usually 54" to laminate one side so I don't think I need heat. I like the idea of a wider laminator and possibly could use the...
