Hello , my uv flatbed printer has "stuck" in a way and it can't fill the reservoir and pours all 8 ink from the heads continuously.
The message i get is ink vacuum system problem. I tried numerous things to stop the ink purging but it only stops when im turning off the machine.
Here is the log files and some photos

Most likely the meniscus is the problem. The filters for the meniscus are the white disks in the print carriage. If you have spares, try replacing those, should take care of the problem if its filter related.

I don't think it's coming from the filters. All 8 ink are dripping so i think it's something that has to do with all of them. I'll leave 2 video links so maybe you can understand better. At the first video you can hear the vacuum trying to suck and continuously do this

When ever I've seen this error, it's related to the meniscus. If the filters are no good, there is no negative vacuum keeping the ink in the heads.

Ink can drip from a single head or colour if the vacuum filter is blocked. If all heads drip, the reason is somewhere before the meniscus vacuum manifold - connectors, valves, tubings, pumps.

I've fixed it! it was the meniscus vacuum ,which had low pressure. The monitor showed me that the pressure was about 1 (H2O unit of measurement) and after i fixed it is 18-19 and everything seems to work fine
