Looks like either you need a new cap top and/or the line is clogged/partially clogged from the cap top through the pump. Some nozzles are firing so you didn't pop a fuse. Ink just isn't flowing enough to fill the head completely. On an SP300 you should be able to fill the system with 1 maybe 2...

Unfortunately I don't know of anyone at the moment. They definitely exist though. I've also had minor repairs such as fixing a USB port etc. done at music equipment repair shops before. But maybe someone else on signs101 has someone they use.

Unplug the printer and wait 15 minutes before you do anything. That will avoid popping fuses etc. Good luck!

Whenever an entire head stops firing it's pretty much always the fuse, transistors, or the head itself. Since the head is known to fire with the black and cyan signal, we can rule out the head. Make sure you test the fuse outside of the machine. Sometimes when they are installed they can give...

If it's not something personal in his life, in my experience, unhappy employees tend to be upset about bad pay, bad boss, or bad co-worker in that order. A lot of the time the best employee ends up getting saddled with all of the responsibilities because they are reliable but if they don't get...

Haha, I wouldn't mind trying a real Australian beer that's for sure! I had an Australian roommate in college and he went on and on about how Fosters is NOT Australian for beer lol.

In the special plate menu you can tell Rasterlink to put a white back for the whole image. The valid pixel option will put white behind any pixel that isn't clear or has no color value. The picture below shows the menu you want to be in. You can also use Rasterlink Tools for Illustrator or...

If you push the head out over the platen, does the gap between the head and platen look even?

The problem with magnetic is, is the convenience of not having to print on vinyl and then laminating it on the magnet worth a possible head crash costing $$$$ in repairs? The answer will be different depending on how much risk you're willing to take and how much you're making on the magnets. A...

In the slant adjustment, the main concern is getting the cyan and magenta dots on the same horizonal plane. Since yours are overlapping, it is correct. Post a picture of the graininess.

I'd ask them if they are ok with it being printed on clear with a white back layer on the dots. Should yield similar results with a lot less work.

The official end of life for the Roland LEJ-640FT, which uses this ink, is October 2025. So, according to Roland's policy, the ink should be available until then.

The same channel not firing anything tells me that it's either completely clogged, the manifold is cracked, or it's not being pulled on by the cap top. I would take the damper off and inspect the manifold to see if it's broken or cracked. If it's in good condition, I would hook up a syringe and...

The offset setting isn't something that needs to be dialed in and is a set number depending on the blade angle. If you are using the 45 degree blade it should be set to 0.3 and if it's the 60 degree blade it should be set to 0.15. If you set it properly and it still doesn't finish corners etc...

There was a reset a while back. You can actually change it to whatever you want now.

Those are all signs of improper offset setting and/or the blade is too far out. What's the offset setting set to right now?

It looks like your blade offset setting is not correct and/or your blade is sticking out too far. I would get a 60 degree blade, Mimaki part number SPB-0003, and make sure the offset setting is correct. That should clear up the cut for smaller details. You probably have the 45 degree blade which...

Fallout New Vegas has a lot of good old style and neon signs. Great game too. From some of these comments, some of you need to take some time off! Work to live not live to work!

A lot of my customers have switched to Bordeaux brand inks. I had another customer simply upgrade to the 1000mL bags and that seemed to fix her issue as well.

That's an odd one then. It is far more common for the opposite problem to happen where the cartridges flag empty when they aren't. Did you actually shake the cartridge to see if it was empty? Sometimes the symptoms of cartridges being empty and not flagging is actually bad dampers. I can't think...
