  1. SP-540 overspray

    When was the last time you changed the damper? If the damper is semi-clogged, it is restricting ink flow to the head and ink will spray out deflected rather than straight out. Kent Mac Media USA, Inc. Chester, NY 10918 USA www.macmedia.com
  2. Mutoh Valuejet 1604 black and cyan ink problems

    The Valuejet has valves right in back -near the cartridge and sub-tank. Those valves to get stuck over time and may need to be replaced.

  4. Roland RS-640, M & Y print head does not fire

    We repair Roland and Mimaki boards (at least 3-5 a week). If your fuse keeps on tripping, then it's one of these problems: the printhead is electrically bad (if so, it has to be replaced - can't be fixed) the transistors/resistors on the board need replacing As CiberSupply mentioned...
  5. DX4 head -> convert to solvent

    Do not use the old plate nor the old manifold. All you have to do is put the new double o-ring and new manifold on and it's good to go. Remember, that you have to carefully flush out the head afterwards before introducing the solvent ink Kent Mac Media USA, inc. www.macmedia.com

    You either have a damaged head (either by inserting the flush too hard or received that way) or the slider/main board is damaged (in which case you need to get that repaired or replaced. Kent Mac Media USA, Inc. www.macmedia.com
  9. jv33 printhead not genuine

    It sounds like you might have damaged the head or Main board. When you changed the head, did you disconnect the power cable (not just turning off the printer)? If you still have the old head and some nozzles are working, you can try reconnecting and doing a test print. If you still get that...
  10. A Little Help

    With any CPU errors - you may need to cycle the printer on/off quite a few times (10-20 times). If that doesn't get you through, then it may be time for a replacement main board.
  11. Installing your own heads?

    no need to flush out inks when you change the head/dampers. The ink will automatically flow back into the cartridge area when you remove the dampers. Make sure you have a large syringe (60cc) so that after replacing with a new damper, you put the syringe to the bottom of the damper and draw...
  12. sp 300v question

    Take a large syringe - perhaps a 60cc one. Put it to the bottom of the damper and slowly pull the syringe. Ink will start going into the syringe. Just do that until you see the air bubble come out. When replacing the damper back onto the head, make sure it is only 1/2 full so that you'll...
  13. Black prints fuzzy and with lines

    I don't see any pictures regarding your problem.... Stupid question - but did anyone replace the dampers? Do a test print from the front panel. does the black print fuzzy then? Kent Mac Media USA, Inc. www.macmedia.com

  16. SP300 printhead swap?

  17. error message in Versaworks after changing Main board in Sp300v

    One of our customers had a problem with their main board with their SP-300v. We sent them a new one and had them put in their Head Ranks as well as the current Firmware. Now, when they start up Versaworks, they get the message: "the printer and ink type detected differs from the one...
  18. VP 540i or SP 540i

    One thing to mention. Faster always seems to be better. However, if you don't really need the speed, the SP is probably the better way to go. The reason I say this is that with 4 head design - means the potential of a lot more money to replace the print heads - which run $800 or a lot more...

  20. Is it too risky to buy SP540 that doesn't print?

    At the very minimum, you will need to flush out the lines. Easy enough for you to do if you either buy cleaning cartridges OR, get the flush and use 3rd party carts and fill them up. After flushing, and then doing an ink fill up, you can do a test print. If all 4 colors print ok, then you are...
