Hello (havent posted much only a years experience)
we have a mw agfa that took a bit to get running properly for a month was running great
now a new issue first the odd time would get waiting data(only on bi direction)and mainly with larger files
worked around that then started getting banding noticed left uv shutter randomly not opening
so printing uni while trying to figure that out then today normal start up and 90 sec in on lamp warm up the
fans usually start now soon as fan starts lights shut off and machine still counting down lamp start yet
lamps shut off and exhaust fan keeps attempting but failing to start
If by chance anyone has seen similar problems id appreciate any input

How long do you have it and did you buy it new from a distributor ?? Sounds like a few things going wrong at once. You're probably gonna hafta talk to who set you up with it.

Hello! Did you find out what it was?
I have my right shutter stuck, and it is not mechanical.

Hello the shutters are air to open and close there is gear that the pressure moves back and forth it could be wore to a point of sticking if the air wasnt working id think it would be stuck closed
