OK - just to fill anyone who may be curious in - I got the carts out....Here was the situation. At the front of the cart slot where the ink line comes out, at the bottom where the base of your cart sits, there is a 1"x1" foam pad. Not real sure why it's there, but it is. When the ink drained...

Well, some of you know about the problems I was having with my printer a couple of weeks ago. Got back from vacation and got it up and running. Been printing great. HOWEVER - my Y and K cartridges are stuck in the printer?!?!?! There was some ink drainage when I originally started having my...

I would highly recommend using Moto-Mark or Convex. You need to super-aggressive adhesive.

Ummmm.....Yeah. That's not a logo. That's some words. But hey - the good news is that there's no way that you actually PAID very much for that - right?

10 of the same design, double sided digital print is $28/ea here. I don't sell many of them though :smile:

I hear where Gino is coming from, but in my experience, not all "brokers" are bad guys. As a matter of fact, a couple of my largest customers are brokers. I've had bad experiences with brokers as well, but i've had bad experiences with plumbers, electritions, etc. Where are you at in Ohio? I'd...

In our shop there is a difference between a Quote and an Estimate. A QUOTE occurs when we have done a full site survey and have all specs, etc. That is a FIRM number. An ESTIMATE occurs when a customer is too cheap to pay for a full site survey (if a bucket is needed, etc.). On the Estimate...

Thanks to everyone for their help!! After taking nearly everything apart, finally came down to simply needing to re-seat the head. A couple of head soaks and a couple of heavy cleanings, and I'm back in business! Thanks again to EVERYONE who chipped in with help on this. It was an education...

Thanks Stealth - I'm MIA until probably 9:00 PM ESt.

So - today I got in new o-rings, some more dampers, and the correct syringe. I get everything put in properly, and lo and behold, I'm able to draw ink through the lines using the syringe.... HOWEVER I can't get ink into the dampers. It's like it gets to the valve at the top of the lines...

LOL - no worries :) A lot of people do that. We are really much more Central (20 miles south of C-bus).

Sean is about 70 miles. He has a good space for wrapping. I do too, but I'm about 120 miles. So, his shop, and the two of us knocking it out.

I may be able to do Cleveland. Sean and I could team up on it if he wants to.

But would the capping station be the cause of the problem so suddenly? The printer was working just fine (other than banding in dark saturations) before I changed the dampers...

It is a 1304 - I bough it new and other than regular maintenance (wiper, and basic. Leaning), nothing has been done to it until I replaced the dampers today.

Well, I finally got the damper cover off - and unless it's absolutely necessary, I'm never putting that stupid thing back on there again!!!! That isn't the issue though..... The reason i replaced the dampers is because I was getting pretty serious banding issues across all media on...

Uh-oh....I got the dampers changed. I thought all was well. Now I tried to re-fill via a few little charges, and I've got ink bleeding out of the cartridge ports and I'm getting next to nothing on my nozzle checks. What did i do wrong???!!!

Hallelujah!!! I got it open and the dampers changed!!! Now I'm refilling ink and hoping like hell I didn't break anything :)

Thanks man! I tried to call him yesterday. I'm doing what you said to do - but the part won't rotate up at all. I'm afraid to put too much pressure on it for fear of breaking it. I'll try the friend again today to try and have him connect me with you. Thanks for the help!

Seriously? No one has any ideas here? I know lots of you have changed dampers...I e got a wrap to print this weekend and I'm at a standstill...
