  1. MUTOH ROCKHOPPER I PROBLEM pls Help me

    encoder will not do that. is it in the black only? i'd look first at the cheapest possibility, ...the data cables. reseat them, trade them with a working one (see if it follows the cable), etc. intermittent data printing like this is usually shorting at the head.
  2. SP-300 not printing yellow only

    dampers are like $8 each right? if you clear that line by backwards flushing it perfectly clean then there no reason to replace it. only replace it if it's damaged. otherwise never wash your car, just trade it in. you are real close to the printer working again. inspect for needle damage or...
  3. SP-300 not printing yellow only

    don't change the capping station that is throwing a part at the printing. since the head shares with magenta there's no way it can just cause an issue with the yellow. when you were pulling ink, did you make sure that your pumps were set open and also that the capping station was vertical...
  4. Black overspray...why?

    damper swap isn't for that. damper swap is for isolating ink starvation. one thing to consider is if the overspray is, when rip related, due to running variable dot vs. non-variable. i've been having overspray issues for the last six months. it's really not an issue in that i print 360x360...
  5. Printing on plastic?

    i've seen several "dtg" style and dedicated inkjet printers with cup rotating jigs.
  6. Half a million Mac computers 'infected with malware'

    ??? a work station hooked up to the internet? is that what your "internet computer" is for.
  7. Roland, Ink Starvation or What?

    you don't really need the bar if they won't fit. i tossed mine long ago. along the with the head raising lever. just too much stuff in the way. when i mentioned "damper swap" that's not meaning replacing them as a fix. ....it's a diagnostic procedure. you keep the dampers hooked to the...
  8. JV3 INK waste bottle

    yeah, that is because it's sucking the ink like crazy now. i'd play with the cleaning schedule in the firmware to dial it in for your needs. but that thing will dump about $75 (oem even more $$$) worth of ink every month. good reason to go with a third party ink
  9. Roland, Ink Starvation or What?

    is it both side of the black head? or just one side. i'd definitely do a damper swap to see if the issue follows the dampers. i'm pretty sure it will. also, have you reverse flushed the black lines? if not, set the cleaning cart, fill a syringe and aggressively force the solution into the...
  10. Falcon 48 Ink inconsistency/dropout need advice

    flush the line in reverse. set the cleaning cart, fill a syringe and agressively force the solution into the cart (you'll hear a rush of bubbles when the line is clean). the needle can trap neoprene from a cartridge, or a fragment of paper that will only come out going toward the cart...
  11. Move over resin, here comes... alcohol?

    dallas is a really cool city. lots of money (houston too. not as upscale but rich). but the weather is wild. covered in ice to tornadoes. back in the day i did art festivals. one festival several people were killed by hail at the show. we have hurricanes near the coast but they really are...
  12. Move over resin, here comes... alcohol?

    seriously, if you look at the data from the amount of tons of food and man power and diesel that it takes to get one steer to slaughter and the whole time that steer is farting up so many cubic meters of methane,,,, it's way worse than you can imagine. i'm not a vegetarian. i could care less...
  13. Move over resin, here comes... alcohol?

    i had a cable guy come by yesterday to work on my shop tv cable box (i don't print in this area) it's down the hall and there is a door shut, also there is a lot of fresh air. he mentioned "man, i am getting a serious headache in here, what do you do?" i was baffled. this to me was a...
  14. Converting New Epson 7700 to handle Sepiax Ink

    you i want to retract my warning... i had rubo discuss with me the other day that he's using sepiax in a mutoh flatbed he built. that it even works decently on his material without heat (he mentioned the colors pop a bit more with heat). so maybe other's have had bad luck, maybe sepiax has...
  15. Direct Color Systems 1324 - any feedback?

    Inwear recently updated their small format uv printer (uv-120x). it looks pretty sharp. also i really like the people at inwear. you can skype the engineers directly and get answers.
  16. Vutek PV200 Bios

    you should take a picture. i'm very impresses with that work around. please do take pictures and post them as a tutorial for everyone that owns a pv200/600. there are a lot 200/600's coming on the market used for great prices. but most likely being purchased by smaller shops that can't...
  17. Hi! from a Graphic Artist in TX

    there are a few "signs" but mostly i do commercial multi-media installs along side my art line.
  18. Converting New Epson 7700 to handle Sepiax Ink

    do not do it. the epson head is not optimized for sepiax ink. any amount of reading will tell you that you will be pulling your hair out. i'm very mechanically savvy but, machines are machines... then chemistry is chemistry, then there's where chemistry meets the mechanical with viscosity...
