  1. Simple and good flexi tip

    You can place the following after your number ft, in, cm, mm, m, (not sure what all units of measurement) to quickly convert a unit of measurement to the unit you usually use. So 7+5/8ft = 91.5000 inches in my design central window. :D
  2. Printing on grommeted banner with Mutoh 1204

    I read about this in one of my Signcraft magazines, but have been to afraid to try it as well. There is a material called "ready 2 print banner" by Banana Banner that a couple of my suppliers sell, it has the very low profile grommets and supposedly has been tested by the company in a versacamm...
  3. New head installation (need assistance)

    I am guessing you are talking about the falcon jr, on the valuejet printers the capping station is raised by a spring and the simple design of the capping station. The problem is fixed, I simply added a washer at each of the four screws between the chassis and the maintenance station. It now...
  4. New head installation (need assistance)

    The problem is the capping station isnt pressing up enough against the head, so now how do I adjust this? Could it be as simple as adding washers under the entire maintence tray?
  5. 1204 INK Question

    What they said is true, usually when it says my ink is out I still have quiet a bit left in my cartridges. The machine guesses how much ink is used by how much the pump runs, I have 4 cartridges that are half full right now that the machine thinks is empty.
  6. New head installation (need assistance)

    I hooked a rubber hose onto one of the nipples the dampers sit on, then put a syringe on the other end of the hose filled with water. I wouldn't recommend doing this on a good head though, I dont have a clue if it would damage it (although i couldn't see why). Have you tried the cleaning...
  7. New head installation (need assistance)

    MacDaddy, I appreciate all the help I can get, I didnt mean to sound harsh, just wanted to give some background information about my abilities. I will send you a pm in just a few minutes. Neil, so far I have replaced the maintenance station (capping station, pump, lines, etc), head, dampers...
  8. New head installation (need assistance)

    I am 100% sure that the cables where put in correct. Before I started working here, I was a electronics technician repairing 2-way radios, so trust me I know how easy it can be, but also knew to mark them before removing them. I did talk to a tech from where I bought it from yesterday...
  9. Mutoh Service Manual

    Most of these look like user manuals, but anything here that would help? http://www2.mutoh.com/public/Manuals/User%20Operations%20Manuals/Falcon%20Outdoor%20AND%20FO%20Junior/
  10. New head installation (need assistance)

    What could it be if no ink can be pulled from the lines? Again in the middle of testing I poured a small amount of cleaning solution onto the capping station (I hope im calling that right), which was easily pulled thru, however no ink has came threw yet.
  11. New head installation (need assistance)

    none print No ink is being pumped, I can see the cleaning solution pumped threw when I pour a small amount on the capping station when the head is off of it. I will try those suggestions and see if it works tomorrow. Thank you.

    I just checked, there was 2 fuses on the mother board near where the ribbons connect, they are both fine.
  13. New head installation (need assistance)

  14. New head installation (need assistance)

    Due to stupidity on my part, and the stubbornest of my boss, I have been forced into fixing our valujet 1204. To keep this thread from being a novel, I will keep out all of the details from what I have done to this machine, however I will say you should be extra careful when installing new...
  15. PrismJet VJ 1204

    True, but the best way around that is to set the last digits of the ip address high so that the isnt a chance of any other pc getting the same address. Which is why my printer is set to 192.168.0.140 and the dynamic numbers start at 100 and go up from there. btw, I am using a wireless router...
  16. PrismJet VJ 1204

    I have my valujet hooked up to my router with a static ip address and my computer hooked up with a dynamic ip address and am having no problems communicating with each other. My computer can also see the rest of my network and I also have 2 plotters (one connected to the computer, another is...

  18. valuejet print lines

    Has anyone found a repacment hose for the clear lines going from the dampers to the splitter (where the ink lines split from one to two lines)? Thanks to stupidity, I am needing to replace all 8 of those lines and have jobs that will need to be finished before I can get in replacments. I only...
  19. Anyone running Flexi on Vista?

    The one thing on vista (this goes for most programs), when installing you need to right click on the actual setup file and run it as administrator. If you dont do this, it will not install propperly 90% of the time. What problems did you have with vista?
  20. Anyone running Flexi on Vista?

    I just finished installing and updating flexi on my new laptop (with vista premium 64-bit). So far so good, I have opened and print/cut a test file so it looks like I am good to go. It wasy very painless and didnt give me any problems at all. I am running flexi 8.1v1 with the updated hasp...
