Been idly messing with a MK1 UJF and thinking it's time to find it a new use. Thing was left on a top shelf in a warehouse for a couple of years before it came to me. Has a bad head, slider board printhead connector clips are all rotted, head plate has a broken screw, one head is trashed. Never...
Not really seen any good guides for firmware updates on these printers. Every printer I use gives me a message of "Your product has the special version of firmware or It is a product that cannot be updated by this application.", even when in service mode. I can connect to the boards with jumpers...
As it says on the title. Not a big fan of either Illustrator or Corel draw, and I work with a lot of bitmaps that look like utter crap if vectorized. I don't mind RasterLink in the least, so that's not an issue. Just looking for some nice basic path cut tracing and I wished that FineCut could...
Working on a recently acquired UJF and got it all up and running for a bit. Started getting temperature messages for the LED unit. Pulled out the thermal imager, looked good. Heat was being pumped out, filters were all good. Looks like the unit was replaced very recently as the black plastics...
Picked up one of the TS300P sublimation printers that is in bad need of head cleaning. Since solvent ink cleaner was used, it resulted in nightmarish clogs. Also, having issues with gunk built up in the lines. No luck sourcing a service manual for the thing either, but it seems to share most...
Less of a request for help, more of a handy tidbit of information for folks getting the same issues.
Had constant overfill errors on the 6042MKII and found to be not the sub-tank that was the problem, but the filters (part #M022219). Seems that over time, the clear membrane (covered in foil)...
After spending a few long days working on the scrapped UJF6042 I got a while back, I am still having issues getting any ink from the heads. I've flushed the lines with ethyl acetate (LF-200's primary chemical), replaced the dampers, flushed the heads directly and gotten great nozzle flow on what...
Looking to acquire some test heads that are electrically intact, but otherwise out of service. We're testing some new ink formulations and don't want to use new heads until we're sure corrosion, abrasion and other such things aren't an issue. Flexible in price and not in a huge hurry. Located in...
Managed to get ahold of a retired UJF-6042 printer and am currently having a helluva time getting the thing back up and running. The unit was left in storage with ink still in it for a couple of years and finally have most of the gelled inks cleaned out. Had a heck of a time getting more than 1...
Title says most of it, looking to acquire a proper Graphtec (It cannot be the Vinyl Express version) to do a full ROM dump on. I am looking at modifying the loader to be able to convert and install proper Graphtec firmware on Vinyl Express Q series cutters. I know these aren't the most common...
First post here and I have been wandering the forums here for quite a bit picking up info on my apparently cursed combination of hardware. I am running an Epson 9900 and a Vinyl Express Q160 cutter. After a few days of tweaking, cussing and trying my damnedest to get ARMS to work properly, I...
