Thanks, mine's a JV3, that looks like a JV33.

I have no idea, I've never messed with this stuff before.

My problem is when I go to move the carriage, its snagging the strip, so I must have something wrong and pics of one installed would help.

Does anyone have pictures or video or replacing the strip? I'm a moron and didn't take a before picture.

Well I managed to screw this up and messed up the strip. Apparently I didn't have it seated properly and when I moved the carriage it bunched up the strip and wrinkled it. Anyone know where I can get a new strip ASAP?!

Thanks for the advice, I appreciate it!

I need to replace the encoder strip on my JV3 and I haven't done it before. Any tips before I do it? I know to have it powered off and unplugged, but want to make sure I don't mess it up.

I've done that and it of course doesn't make the noise then. I went through and thoroughly cleaned and lubed the rails and made sure the carriage bushings are clean and it seems to be working now. I'm still going to replace the encoder strip when it comes in, but for now I'm just happy its working.

What should I look for as far as the bushing goes? I'll look over the rail again to make sure something isn't on it.

I'm having a problem while printing or even when the carriage is coming back into the capping station where I get the Y current error. As the carriage is traveling, I hear a clunking noise and I'm not entirely sure where its coming from. I'm waiting a new encoder strip, but I don't think that is...

Thanks Vander, that's what I was looking.

Kind of a dumb question, but where in the settings is the option have the printer refresh/clean itself when its not in and powered off? I remember on the JV3 you could have the machine do this, but I don't remember the exact phrasing for it and I don't won't go pushing a bunch of settings and...

My JV33 has done pretty much the same thing. It worked great for about a year, then one day just took a dump for no reason. Didn't change a thing with it, just decided to start banding and messing with colors. I've had a tech out several times, replaced several components and nothing has worked...

I am having an issue with my plotter not making adjustments when I enter new values. It was cutting off, so I made some adjustments to compensate for it and nothing happens. I zeroed everything and started over including a new 400mm square and getting that looking good. The main issue is the...

I am not familiar with this model either, but it looks like if you did an overnight head soak in cleaning solution, it would definitely help. Not sure what if its called the same thing, but on mine you do a custody wash where you clean the wiper blade, then fill the capping station ink docks...
