Success No More Lines
Information from Doug Williams at Fellers on where my lines are coming from. Doug has been working on these for 25 years and has forgotten more than I will probably learn. Here is what he told me.
Since the lines are always at the same location it tells us there are three...
Location
Yes the location is always the same if the print is larger than 33" up to 38". Less than 32 there are no lines. Greater than 33" they will show up between the 33" to 34'' area.

Kill the lights
Ok I tried killing the lights and I still get the lines.
I tried printing other sizes and as long as the print is at 33 to 34 inches from the right edge it still prints the lines.
Flat cabels or "Y" cabels have been replaced
I have just now replaced the Flat cabels or "Y" cables as Mutoh calls them. I have also replaced the short 6" head cables. Problem lines remain. Any other thoughts on this?
SC 850 drivers
I have drivers for the SC850 that I believe will work. It also has a pdf that instructs you how to install the drivers. Basically when you plug plotter into Windows XP via a USB cable it will then show up in your Device Manager with an driver error message. At this point you can...

Please realize I have only been repairing my own LFP (large format printer) for less than 6 months.Mine is a first generation LFP Mutoh Falcon Outdoor Jr so the newer printers have newer technology that I haven’t begun to delve into. My first inclinationis that...
VJ 1618 Manual
Its too big (51 meg)to send as one file but if you give me your email address I can send it to you in 7 separate files. Or if you have a SendSpace account you can get it that way. http://www.sendspace.com/file/zhhsju
Endoder strip replaced
OK so I switched out the encoder strip with the one from the Mutoh in the garage and I am getting the same lines at the same exact place on the print. This does bring up a different question for the future. Can the encoder strip be installed upside down and still...
Encoder strip
I see others have had this problem. Maybe time to switch out the encoder strip. After another clean I get a error 74 http://www.signs101.com/forums/showthread.php?89409-What-are-these-marks&highlight=mutoh+encoder
Encoder strip
I have cleaned the encoder strip but tell me if I am doing it correctly. I am using 70% alcohol and using a lint free towel to go back and forth on the clear plastic strip on the very top of carriage. I have never used cleaning solution but if needed I can use something stronger...
I just replaced a colored head in a Mutoh Falcon Jr. What adjustment do I make to close in the gap between the black and cyan on my nozzle test print. Blown up Pic enclosed.
101rs My falcon Jr has had this problem since I bought it a few months ago. I needed a new color head so after I installed it two days ago, I am now striving for perfection. -Quit laughing- The head made the prints amazingly gorgeous but I still have these little black marks appearing...
101ers I have seen it published – “Ultrasonic machines will ruin Epson Heads.” And also “I used a small ultrasonic machine and within a day my heads were back like new”. So now I need experience to balance out opinion. Have you used an ultrasonic machine on a DX2 or DX4 Epson head, and did...
Cattle syringes. Now what line size?
Ok so I went to the farm and feed store and found the cattle syringes. Looks like they will work great if I can find the solvent resistant line to go on the end of them. Any idea what size so I can search the supply houses for a few feet? Thanks. -James
They say necessity is the mother of invention. Well my Mutoh falcon Jr got a plugged spit reservoir. I found a baby snot sucker in the medicine cabinet and thus I now have a tool to flushing out the reservoir drain tube. I filled the reservoir with cleaning solution and inserted the new tool...
