the only way that a belt being more or less stretchy would only affect maintaining zero. if the printer is producing vertical banding that might be explained by the carriage hanging at the same points. if when manually pushing the carriage across the gantry, and you don't feel resistance...

i do. you'll need to make custom y-splitters at the manifold. it's a little tricky but it makes the whole printer really easy to use. you'll need to keep the chips arranged the same as in a dual cmyk set up. what's nice is you can have the remaining four ink lines loaded with flush at the...

last year's failed partnership (faucade) new company that i am working on (jaaw)

in that case, i'd set up a file of a tiny grid. composite black then 100% C, 100% M, 100%, 100% Y, 100% K (use a cmyk file and turn off icc profiles). the grid should be about 1cm spacing and the lines themselves should be only one pixel's width. after printing, inspect the print with a...

we had an issue with a 6x10 CET fk that was drifting about 1/8" over three feet into the print. after having every CET tech work with us, a motion control specialist come by, new motor, reset pully, pulled and tested the servo controllers, new encoder strip, new reader.... we finally talked to...

i've seen employees get better, stay the same, and get worse. the general rule is that if you ask an employee to pick it up, and that employee doesn't show obvious improvement in one week, don't get excited about the next 52 weeks. it's just the nature of the human animal at work.

carriage speed or acceleration length? i believe they are different. acc' length is the distance the motor travels to get up to top speed. this would be a temporary state vs the general speed across the gantry. i'd also suggest contacting "ice" or "nicky". they are both far and above the...

one would like to attribute vertical banding to something physical/mechanical. i don't know what this is, but consider a few things that might lead you in the right direction. i believe the HP 45 series printers have vertical banding issues. maybe there are a few tidbits of info in those...

i'd go with something more effervescent. this reminds me of a car wash logo. (i know this is a bit lame but maybe it's a starting point).

just about any polyethylene syringe will work. you can get them at tractor and pet supply stores.

these two points will pull a vacuum. it's not probably that you would be losing ink on all dampers at once, unless none of them are screwed on securely an straight. an air leak at the cap will cause the positive pressure in your lines to drop allowing th ink to drift back down into your carts...

if your carriage is parked and you are pulling a vacuum at the base of the capping station, and get nothing, then you probably have a capping station seal issue. have a partner press upwards on the base of the capping station into the platen of the heads and pull a vacuum again to make sure it...

i think that on that model there is a capping station pump tube right there in the front. pull it, hook a syringe to the nipple of the capping station where the pump tube attached and pull a vacuum. see if you get ink into the syringe. when doing, listen for a hissing noise which would...

i've been able to prove to myself that there's not a lot of profit at the uber high end. i'm phasing it out over the next few years. my art signage sells commonly for $200-$475 per square foot. by the tim agents and designers get their cut and you've revised a design for months to get design...

i was raised in a home based business. had a 33,000 square foot shop with two partners for a year (disaster). now i'm back in the sticks regrouping. actually this week i'm refurbing the vacuum table on my flatbed printer which is planted right in the family room. i'll never have an "in the...

i like to take a photo of the space but then also build the space in rhino and blend the two. it can be done very quickly. ... 1 draw the blueprint in corel (basic lines representing the walls) 2 then simply extrude those lines upwards into the space (exterior or interior) to the correct...

by process of elimination will be the only way to get to a few ink options. OEM mimaki ink is out performed in color and scratch resistance by Triangle. but neither are truly "scratch resistant". solvent ink is basically a micro thin coat of spray paint. and we wouldn't expect a micro thin...

in seventh grade my class was a part of a writing analysis test done by the state. we were taught d'nealian, as well as encouraged to hybrid our letter/script habits to what suited us best. this test went on for about three months. since then my handwriting has been the same. ...very quick...

how to build a toaster http://www.ted.com/talks/thomas_thwaites_how_i_built_a_toaster_from_scratch.html

in that case, i'd pull the main board and send it to macmedia.
