Yeah, that raises so many red flags I wouldn't touch that at all.

I have seen too many scams come from Indonesia to ever order from there. Also you have to live by the famous line "If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is..."

Solventinkjet will probably know. Might need to wait for him to wake up.

Not sure how to fix it, and this is a shot in the dark, but have you checked your coolant level recently?

You can create your own and save it as a graphic style in Illustrator.

There may be easier solutions to this. Last time I had a weird noise like this I just lubed the white toothed drive belt with bar soap (go very gently with it) and noise went away. Another time it was just a bearing replaced on top of the motor. Just some cheaper options to try before replacing...

I do lots of printing direct to Powder Coating with good success. I run the jfx200-2513 with the LH-100 inkset and https://www.kolorcure.com/products/additives-primers/ KolorCure Metal and Glass primer. You can also test P2 primer (I get it from ITNH), that stuff seems like it would adhere...

We don't run a ton of it. We have 1 client that orders a lot at a time once a year, and it is on brushed silver.

We run the same machine and same inks as you. For us we have bonding issues on certain brands of ACM. The best we have found is to be Maxmetal from Grimco. I am able to peel and print full coverage with 0 issue. Since we had so many problems with ink adhesion on other brands, Maxmetal is the...

Usually when I do this I copy the dieline, create a new layer, then on new layer hit Ctrl + F (Paste in place on top). Change the...

Have you tried turning the machine off and on again? I know it sounds ridiculous, but that fixes 75% of issues as well.

Have you tried changing the cutting strip? How big are the jobs? If it is messing up on longer jobs, it could be the rollers. Check those to make sure they are clean. Any hidden lines in the dieline that it is picking up? Is there tension in the rollers? Perhaps the tension on one roller is...

nyprintasign did you ever get this issue resolved? If so what was the solution? I was able to get my cyan ink back, but now my black ink dropped out and nothing seems to be working. The next step for the tech is to replace the head, which I am trying to avoid if at all possible.

Have you tried doing it in service mode? Hold down Function and Remote when powering up.
