I found your email in a different post. My apologies, as after exploring the search results, I see they are all for the 1324, not the 1324X. I'm sending you the correct manual. Check your email for a link to download it.

An alternative to replacing the lines is to disconnect the ink lines at both cartridge side and the damper side. Connect a syringe to the ink line at the cartridge end with some flexible tubing. Place the other end in a container of acetone and pull ink through the lines until the line runs...

I presume you mean VG640? Look at the head speed. You will find it under the quality setting section of the Queue# settings. You can override the current setting by checking the box next to ignore default settings. This setting will only apply to that particular media and quality setting, i.e...

Google works very well. A simple Google search - Mutoh 1324x service manual. Try it... Much faster doing it yourself...

Damon, check your messages.

Fortunately, the Q1 transistor is available, after much searching. I have ordered a couple of them for my board repair stock and will have them in a week. If you do decide to order a used board, make sure it is returnable. The key will be if you have voltage at the fuses. Troubleshooting...

To clarify the cable I'm suggesting, it is a 4 wire cable going from CN4 on the servo board to CN9 on the mainboard. The head power voltage goes from Q1 on the servo board through this cable to the mainboard and on to the printheads. In addition, it supplies the voltage for both fuses that...

My bet is a micro crack. That's the only way you could get that much cyan over into the magenta head. A damper wouldn't do that.

As the sequencing of test prints is important, I would ask if you did a cleaning before doing the green and cyan tests? To properly troubleshoot this issue, print red until you see the streaking get pretty bad, then immediately print the green and cyan tests, without doing a cleaning. To...

Don't see the test prints. I would especially like to see the green and cyan tests. Certainly, you should replace the cyan damper first, as it's the cheapest thing and simplest thing to do. If there is no change after that, then it's likely a micro crack. The ink droplets could be caused either...

Have you made any progress with our suggestions?

Suggestions never need an apology, and as you said, someone reading this thread may find your suggestion solves their particular problem. Keep 'em coming! My remark was meant to educate, that's all...

It's possible Q1 on the servo board is the culprit. See this thread - https://www.signs101.com/threads/xc-540-printing-blank.167937/. On the XC-540, it is on the headboard. BUT, on the SP-540V it is located on the servo board and the circuit connects to the mainboard through a wiring cable. I...

Just remember to use calendared with calendared and cast with cast. They have different physical characteristics that can cause issues when mixed. Due to how they are made - calendared has a memory characteristic that can cause minor dimensional changes depending on temperature, as well as other...

First, it is best to use the correct type of laminate, as opposed to clear vinyl as an overlaminate. Second, when doing contour cutting, if you are doing a bleed cut, i.e., no white border, you need to give it 24 hours before cutting. This allows all the solvent to dry and outgas. If you do a...

FYI, the SP-300V is USB only. I agree completely on standard network type of connections. Has the USB cable ever been snagged on and pulled out? As previously suggested, replace the USB cable, not exceeding 15 feet. If that doesn't work, then it is likely there is something wrong with the...

So, not using channels 7 & 8, which would be Wh & Mt. That makes sense.

My experience with this printing behavior where it starts out fine, then gradually gets this kind of color bleeding, and clears up with numerous cleanings and then gradually comes back again, is you likely had a head crash at some point and your printhead has a micro-crack between the cyan and...
