the nv concept van was sweet... but then something went horribly wrong. also attached is an insane mod with sleeper, plus diy modified home depot racking. i'm gonna go do a ford business vehicle dealer and check it out. gas at $5 a gallon over the next five years eliminates full size vans as...

the "hideous" is debateble. i think they are uber-nerdy. hideous would be the new nissan nv2500. it's barfbag ugly.

oh yeah... the green is a terrible option. i digging around and it seems there are some over head sleeper upfit kits for this van. just not sure if with all the interior moulding and visor storage area the 96" fit up there. i'd like to fab' some horizontal removable rack bars so that i could...

i've got a grand caravan with sto and go seats. it's great but the roof is very low coming in. when needing to store four or five large pieces they get stacked. also you can hold a 4x8 no problem. but it leaves no place for my daughter to sit if pick her up while out on business. she has...

this weekend i am going to go check out a ford transit connect. earlier, i wrote the van off because it couldn't carry a 4x8. but after a closer look it seems that the substrates can be stored over head(?). if anyone has one of these, could you do some quick measuring according to the...

as far as changing out the capping station, before you break everything down, i'd suggest doing the spring adjustment to the one in the machine. you've got a lot going for you in that it was just working a bit ago. the new capping station will be stiffer ...the caps may need some breaking in...

i assume you are running CMYKx2? i just had this issue with my jv3. ended up taking apart the capping assembly and stretching out the springs a bit to give them a bit more push. nothing else worked (i replaced all the cap tops, realigned like crazy, reshimmed, etc)

the long story will help the diagnosis. unless it's too horrible to repeat. mikepro is right, a good soak is the way to start healing the head. looks like a head strike scanning to the right. or the head slammed into the cap wrong and the cap came loose. (missing middle portions can also be...

i just fought with an issue similare to this with my jv3 when changing the cap tops. adjusted everything i could with no result. in the end i opened up the capping assembly and stretched out the cap top springs a bit so they would have a bit more "push" against the bottom of the head and that...

first when changing pumps, do a pump tube swap to make sure it is the pump and not interface betweent the cap/head. also flusing out that pump and or replacing the tube inside will make it good as new. are you pulling ink to the damper via a syringe (through the damper). what do you...

sure it wasn't IR? uv wouldn't have any affect on the ink other than the slightly warm radiation coming off the bulbs.

yeah... never get paint thinner or xylenes/xylol near your printer. the head adapter is the "least" solvent resistant part of the printer. horrible little plastic. possibly because the shape can be molded out of a long chain polymer... from what i've seen ketones are the way to go...

bump.

i have a complex issue. 1) i need the printer/main board properly diagnosed 2) i am wondering if there is a perimeter change that will allow the printer to ignore the fourth head. after an exhausting vacuum leak search in my printer (caused by weak cap top springs). i am now...

me too, same type of overspray? my jv3160sp just the other day started doing some wild overspraying and i've ended up with two suspiciously blown heads. (one head was a terribly clogged head that was clogged with white. hadn't been printed from in a year. figured it died because it deserved...

i clean the nozzle plate frequently on my jv3 (gently... of course). yes touching the plate can cause damage. but remember the wiper is beating the thing to death, head crashes, cap tops. i get a solvent swab very soaked in solution and put it completely flat against the head and do a gentle...

i'm almost positive that your head will be fine after some cleaning. what is suspect is the missing colors all on the same side. the head may not be meeting up flush with the capping station at this point. i'd reset your head height, inspect for level, inspect for contact with the capping...

you'll want to locate a reseller in your area. i'd contact them and ask for distributors. http://www.inxdigital.com/alternative.aspx

think i got it. the suggestion to use the caps with ink was a great suggestion to get an eye on the interface between the head and cap. also used a small mirror to get a view on the upright on the capping assembly that comes in contact with the foot on the carriage. that solved the black...
