Need Help Roland RF-640 : Ink dripping problem

[harperwenson]

The Roland rf-640 at my workplace is having an ink leak issue. Specifically, the cyan ink is leaking. I can see the ink pooling under the gold plate of the printhead. Does anyone know what's wrong with the machine and how to fix it? View attachment 179116

Original head on a RF? Quite old then, they do go bad.
Run the Light Choke Clean in User Menu.
If it still drips, you will need dampers for sure and possibly head.

I would first replace the dampers.(use genuine!!! and all looking in the same direction)
Should do the trick. If not, replace the head as well.
