New printhead, new cap top, new dampers. Cyan went out and all colors are out. It sounds like the lines are pinched off. Depending on how much printing you've done since all of the work was done, it could be that the tech never opened the lines up after doing all the work. I wonder if your...

I remember watching a Mimaki turn into a paperweight in a situation just like this. One channel went out and all of the work shifted over to the other printers. Then the Mimaki sat there because it was too expensive to fix. Eventually, the ink started clotting and settling and when the tech...

I'm not sure that I can offer much insight, but just so we have a complete picture of your issue, correct me if I'm wrong on any of this. The band shows up on any media you run through the printer. The band does not repeat at regular intervals - it appears seemingly at random. The band happens...

I run an EFI UV printer in my shop. From time to time, we have weird issues pop up. One of the things that works for us is to deliberately trip the safety and then let it re-set to home. Obviously, you could also cycle the power, but I'm guessing you've done this. Good luck.

5 grommets? How heavy is this sign?

I use a Roland VersaCamm VS-640i. The manual says: "Perform this cleaning when printed colors are unstable or uneven, e.g., when color density is inconsistent, even if the same data is printed with the same settings. This will stabilize the output colors by agitating the ink. Light choke...

...fingers, too, I bet. That thing makes my OSHA sense tingle.

Had a big bubble in one of my yellow lines. I've been running cleaning cycles, swapping cartridges, giving it time, and nothing was working. That brought me here. Did the choke clean and that did the trick. Thanks for the info!

Go, Texas! Texas proposes gold and silver-backed currencies to compete with fiat money "In a quest for sound money, a Texas lawmaker has filed two bills that, if passed, would create gold and silver-backed transactional currencies, backed 100% by the underlying asset, that would serve as legal...

I predict this thread will be very entertaining soon.

So, they don't like the thread, but they won't unsubscribe to it. They aren't interested in the topic, and yet they swarm around it like moths to a flame.

This is a fantastic idea. I would be extremely happy if Gino muted me and unsubscribed to this thread. I wish him the best.

If this thread irritates you, you can always just ignore it. Simplest thing in the world. Just look at something else. If you're genuinely not interested, then don't participate. Hope that helped!

I never suggested that we should all just lie on the ground and let life just happen around us until we die. I'm saying that you take actions in life and you face the consequences. I'm happy with my choices and the preparations I've made. I'm willing to face the consequences of the future...

The valuation of stocks and commodities go up and down all the time. You can't measure how well anything is doing by comparing it to the highest point it has ever been. It would be like comparing the Texas Longhorns against their 92-0 win against Daniel Baker College in 1915. Did the...

Ha, is that just another way of saying that it will always boil down to personal preference?

Yeah, bitcoin smells like a scam to me. I don't know, maybe I'm wrong. Blockchain is cool, and the promise of anonymous but completely verifiable transactions sounds great, but when you really really look at it, bitcoin is just a ledger of ownership - it isn't anything tangible. I mean, a...

Is it any weirder than trading little pieces of printed paper back and forth? Also, tell me how many dollars it takes to purchase a single shell necklace. If it's more than one dollar, technically the shells are worth more than the paper is.

Well, Nixon and FDR did the legwork to decouple the dollar from gold already. Right now, gold can be valued in dollars per oz, but it's not tied to it any more than the price of pizza is. Right now, gold and silver are just commodities with a long history of perceived value and industrial...

I'm all for going back to actual gold and silver currency. ....although, then they wouldn't be able to tax every transaction. ...which I'm also okay with.
