Great! Answers I was looking for - thanks, all!

That's the one I'm looking at - but it does say 'PrismJet', hence my confusion. I'm ok with a slower speed...heck, this Outdoor Jr. is about as slow as they get! And yes, I didn't clarify where I was looking, I apologize. Now, knowing that Mutoh doesn't make the 48" models anymore, would these...

So the 48" PrismJets that SIgnWarehouse is selling are Falcons? The reason I'm asking...and I know I'll get slammed...is I have no need for a 54" printer. Almost everyone will be saying 'but that's what the material comes in' or 'you can sell more stuff', etc, etc. But the truth is my little...

Between a PrismJet and a Valuejet? Is it just different packaging, or are the internal components different?

You'll need some sort of rip program. You won't be able to output directly from Corel and get the correct result.

Orfeo: thanks - kind of figured that was the step by step. I'll wait to hear from you about the sale. ddarlak: none whatsoever. But if you're selling internationally, then a grammer check is only cursory.

So how, exactly, do you order anything from that site? Send an email to the "inquiry"? I got really excited when I saw I could buy a 64" VJ for $9999...until I saw the fine print of "5 units" minimum. And I wasn't too dure about this description on parts " We provide virus kind of wide format...

He automatically assumes a quick shipping requirement, hence the high prices. If you call him and tell him you're in no rush, or to send it out ground or USPS, then he will do that and reduce the costs. I buy quite a bit from the guy and he's always treated me right, and even walked me through...

I don't know if the 48's are much different mechanically than the 36's (Jr's) that I'm running. In the two years I've had mine I've had to replace the heads once, the entire mechanical station once and the capping station once. They can be finicky machines with the ink and drain lines in the...

The timing fence is that clear strip across the top of the rail. You can't see it without taking the top cover off. Check also that your carraige isn't getting hung up on the capping station or capping station hoses. I have had the same error numerous times and it was nothing more than a hose...

I would replace the entire capping station and pump assembly. It's pricey, but will eliminate any issues with used pieces. Call GEI and order part # DE-335599. It's marked as MY-24114 in the service manual. Cost me $312 last year so be prepared. Might as well order two new heads and a set of...

Almost sounds like there is gunk in the feed lines. A pain, but try flushing the magenta line from the cart to the head, flush the head (not recommended, I'm sure, but I brought a head back by forcing cleaning solution through the damper nipple. Make sure you've got towels handy!), and...

Slight update...fiddling with it a little this Saturday morning, and tried the syringe method to get the juices flowing again while the heads were over the capping station. Applying a very slight (well, maybe more than slight) downward pressure on the head carraige I was able to pull a vacuum -...

Looks like what I'm dealing with...cross contamination of the dampers and a couple (or more) deflecting/bad nozzles.

Yeah, checked that first (the little vacuum thingy). It seems to be seated ok; the sound is actually coming from the head/cap junction when the carraige is seated on the capping station. I wound up blowing that particular head (cyan) clean with solvent via a syringe through the damper nipple...

Once again my Falcon 2 has let me down for the third time this week. For some reason the heads keep clogging up - and everything, everything is new. I reset the capping station height and all that good stuff, and there are still issues. In an effort to clear the heads, I tried drawing a vacuum...

Are you able to pull a prime from the drain tubes at the capping station when the carriage is homed? You should be able to pull ink right through the heads if you have a solid vacuum at the station, otherwise the setup isn't right. Did you enter the correct head rank for the new color head? Are...

Good to know, Henry. It's the little things like that you won't read on the literature. I can't really complain too much about the printer. When it works, it's great. A little slow, but that's just fine. I can set it and basically forget it and go do something else. When it breaks...ah...

It's a Falcon II Outdoor. I'll check for lint again...there were a couple threads from the large black spit pad on it, but I thought I got them all. I am also considering the possiblilty of the uneven ink levels in the carts. I did read where a low cart can siphon up a color next to it, and the...

I've searched through the threads and kinda narrowed down this as an only possibility. My yellow damper has just recently started becoming cross contaminated overnight. It's happened twice in the past two days, and I can't quite figure where the leak is coming from. I'll put a new damper on...
