  1. FB 950 Wiper Service Station Failing To Home

    i don't know if this helps, but I get wiper errors on my JV3 when ink builds up over time. the sensor is actually a trigger/switch that, when ink builds up, cannot open/close properly. i've also had issues when the ink builds up on the gears that control the belt that moves the wiper. a...
  2. Fantasy Football Pay league UPDATE

    ProRated is paid up! can't wait to take ur guys' $$$!
  3. JV3-160 opinions

    solid machine. best of luck gettin' it up and runnin'. only major problems I've seen from these, have been the ones inherited from previous owners/transportation to new home. nothing a few new parts can fix, however.
  4. aura ink ???

    never heard of em. worth a shot, but keep the money you're savin' handy... printheads are pricey if you want to take the gamble, but I'm a proud operator of 3rd party inks (bordeaux) and couldn't be happ$ier.
  5. Signs101 Fantasy Football

    if anyone else wants to join, i'll fill in the even-slot. but i'm already in 4 other $ leagues, so it don't matter if not.

    heck yes!!!! cannot wait for fantasy football 2k12!!!
  7. High impact acrylic sheet?

    lexan, no doubt. ...can be folded in half dozens of times before it will even tear. Only thing I would trust acrylic to do, at those dimensions/conditions, is shatter. also, yellowing is going to happen and its just the nature of the product. It still comes with UV resistant coating that will...
  8. App tape that sticks to 3M IJ or 180C backer?

    i leave "frames" of material around my print/cuts or simply mask/apply as a whole and weed-out the negative on the sign panel (but i always weed-out the centers before masking, to save time)
  9. issues upgrading firmware

    slow reaction on this one, but lol @ "no sheet"
  10. issues upgrading firmware

    nah, i'm talking the rear sensor on the carriage that detects the position on the encoder strip. buut if artbot's swapped that out, then i'll keep rattlin' out random ideas as they pop-up while runnin' my printer today.
  11. issues upgrading firmware

    osnap, i remember that thread now.... thought you had it "fixed", lol. This is making me not want to ever power-down my printer...ever! :) haven't finished reading yet, but since the boards checked-out then maybe you're in need of new sensor cables? particularly, the rear encoder strip...
  12. issues upgrading firmware

    o man, heck of a read here. i'll dive-in, as well, but lotta catchin' up to do on my end. noted: i've gotten "error 07" messages before, after installing new printheads. but a quick re-connection of the cables cleared it right up so I must have just had them seated improperly or in the wrong...
  13. Who posts at signs 101? What's your title?

    lol, was gonna say... "what if all options apply?", but then again i'm just the "boss' kid" and option #1 is merely an honorary title at the moment.
  14. Do you 'tag' your signs?

    got a thread from a while back where I brought up the discussion of "do you replace other people's tags with yours, if you're just applying graphics to an existing fabricated sign" got a guy from the next town over, that does vinyl for dirt cheap and has been replacing our manufacturer's decals...
  15. Signs101 Fantasy Football

    i'm in! got the request to rejoin last year's league. I'm also game for money league. already in two-$250 12man leagues this year and another $20 20-man.
  16. CNC Router Regrets?

    no regrets here. our MultiCam is still running strong, now a decade later.
  17. Broken JV3 160s and my quest to make it run again

    o wow. love how they just simply strapped (more like CRUSHED) it down! also, "padding" shown has no real use whatsoever, except most likely filling the internals with loads of debris. best of luck on the restoral. hope you got a great deal on it, since at the very least you're looking at...
  18. Used "C" channel letter

    edited: my bad, I "had" a few C's lying around but looks like the kid scrapped em' this week :(
  19. jv3160sp - i fixed my printer, how?!?

    y-current errors, as of late, more and more frequently. bout ready to buy a new $700 motor, but the issue comes/goes so I haven't really gotten around to making the expense just yet... But now, to top it off, this morning while running some test prints, i'm getting a squeeky-grinding noise as...
  20. JV3-160SP (ink goes through heads but won't print)

    so much to diagnose that I don't know where to start. define "bring back from dead", as when i use the term... it means it wasn't working, but now it is. seems like you're still just, dead. where did you get the printer? how long did it sit? when was it working last? how well? how did you...
