The RIP handles CMYK values and Spot colors differently so that makes sense. If you send a CMYK gray to the RIP it interprets its according to the color profile. So you might send 50% K to the RIP but it actually interprets it as 3%C 4%M 1%Y 57%K for example. But when you send a spot color it...
Either the cap top has failed or the tubes are clogged. If the cap is older than a year, I would just replace it and flush some cleaning solution through the waste tube to make sure they aren't clogged. If the maintenance station as a whole is older than 2 years, the pump itself could be failing...
Haha yeah usually I will copy and paste in front, offset path, merge all the elements, and then send to back. Then you can make it whatever color you want to match the image.
If you're using Illustrator, you want to use the, "Offset Path" function. Instead of scaling it actually moves the path outward however far you want it to go. I assume Corel and other design software have something similar.
I get that for sure. We usually bring pretty much everything with us on service calls for that reason. But in my experience there's techs out there who simply don' troubleshoot and just change out all the expensive parts and hope for the best. I can't tell you how many times I get a call from...
I've flushed many heads in my career and would say that it generally recovers nozzles but only clears them 100% about 30% of the time. It all depends on how old the head is and how clogged it is. Also, nozzles that are physically damaged simply won't recover. You do run a risk of breaking the...
I have a manual that shows it but I'm not allowed to give it out. They generally go overboard and want you to even change the pumps every year which in my experience usually last many years. I would say the most important things are going to be the cap tops every 1 to 2 years, wiper once every 6...
We have switched our 1204 customers over the Bordeaux brand. It's very close to the same formula as the original Eco Ultra inks.

At the end of the day the damper in that machine is a basic dual channel damper but they put 4 of them into a big unnecessary assembly and sell it for more money. I'm willing to bet you could take it all apart and just change the dampers but I have never had a chance to try to know 100%.

That cap adjustment will always move up afterwards. It's basically asking you to tell it when the cap top touched the head and then it moves up enough for it to seal.
I've been in the printer parts selling business for over 13 years and have picked up some signs that a site is a scam.
1. They are located in Indonesia. I don't want to generalize but I've never heard of anyone actually getting their parts when they use an Indonesian site.
2. They are located...
Ink nozzles dropping out during printing is almost always a bad damper or other ink flow issue. I'd start with the dampers especially if they are over 1 to 2 years old.
If it does end up doing it on the nozzle check, it's a sign that the cyan head is going bad and/or it has a damaged or dirty cable connected to it. These heads fire different sized dots and the circuitry can fail for only one size. The nozzle check and registration marks use the large dot for...
Oh believe me, I'm the crazy uncle who won't use rewards cards because I don't need 7/11 tracking me. The current way ads are done is pretty invasive for sure.
I get why people don't like ads especially when they are plastered all over the place in an unappealing way but at the end of the day, if a site can't pay the bills with ads because people turn them off, they will just start making you pay to use their site. Most of the major and local...
