Physical RFID boards are exactly the same in both Canon and Fuji printers - the firmware recognizes, which printer is installed on and starts the proper version. Inks were supplied by Fuji in the same pouches with RFID chips (pouches for both companies were filled from the same tanks). Only...

Agitating the white ink pouch daily? Yes, but WITHOUT disconnecting it from the quick connector - it's enough to mix the ink inside the pouch when it's connected. Quick connectors used in the printer are not mentioned to be used so many times, so the printer will remind the operator to...

In theory, it's not possible - firmware recognising the printer as Fujifilm's should accept only the inks supplied by Fuji. The same is for the Oce Arizona printer. Why do you want to switch to Oce inks?

19" on your screen doesn't mean that there is 19" in the vacuum system. I saw many times correct values visible on the screen while the real value (read on the gauge simultaneously) was more than 1" lower or higher. Also, this 10 seconds time frame has to be calibrated, otherwise strange things...

I know that there's no physical gauge - it's part of the service engineer's equipment, not the printer part. It's a gauge installed in the carriage in the vacuum tubing to verify both the meniscus vacuum level and match the meniscus vacuum pressure displayed in the Interface Ink Window to the...

It could be created by the data cable between the mainboard and the carriage. Either some kind of the noise (and delay in data transmission longer than the accepted time) or the beginning of the physical damage.

Quick question - when for the last time the ink vacuum was calibrated? With the external gauge.

Looks like a problem with the linear carriage motor or encoder. Difficult to diagnose without the SDS key.

In older versions of the printer's firmware (before the F model) it was possible to use expired inks, but since a long time is not available anymore - when the ink is expired, it's gone.

I had many LED1600 in my hand and seems that you had bad luck with yours. Usually they work pretty fine.

What kind of colour profiles were used? Generic? Or created especially for the substrate?

Why? What was the problem?

You never said you want to print truck sides. It's doable on the Onset (I don't mean it's effective or profitable). Both Onset and Arizona could print on tarpaulins (when cut into sheets), but anyway it's not sellable - unfortunately, truck sides require better adhesion/resistance than the UV...

If the meniscus vacuum would be too high, ink in other channels would be sucked into the vacuum filters first (before white), as white is the heaviest ink. Playing with the vacuum valve without having the external gauge connected to the vacuum system may cause more problems - inks sucked into...

Ink pumps are located in the box between the ink pouches - the white ink pumps is easily recognisable, as it's the only one with the recirculation valve in the ink tubing, all other channels are straight - ink pouch-tubing-pump-tubing-carriage. If you want to clean the ink level sensor, you need...

The technician verified the meniscus vacuum with the external gauge? Anyway - if you have ink in the meniscus vacuum filter only in one channel, seems that you have a problem in that specific channel, between the ink manifold (meniscus vacuum is separated into channels there) and the printheads...

Have you seen samples printed on Inca Onset?

Unless you have a UV printer with a glossy finish.

I'm not an Agfa specialist but check the connection between the LCD display/keyboard and the electronic board. It may be a damaged cable, board or display/keyboard.

It may be difficult to find a printer that prints metallic silver, as the nozzles in the printheads are very small and metallic pigment could block them. Clear (varnish) could give the gloss finish (also selective), which is not the same, but it's available in many printers.
