Thanks, Techman. I'll probably just stick with GS and get more ink instead (for now), but of course carts don't last forever. I'll get in touch next time I need a new set of carts. Thanks, Ken

Yeah, that would be the right thing to do alright. For me though, it would cost less to just buy more GS than to get a whole new set of cartridges just for the little GS+ I have around . . . unless I were going to switch to GS+ (which I currently don't plan on). Thanks! Ken

Hi Paint, It's a start. ;-) I've been using the GS inks for quite a while. The "PLUS means fast . . ." leads me to believe the drying time is shortened, and therfore the "open" time would be different for multiple color passes, given the same media, yes? If that's the case, then the...

Hi all, Probably a silly question regarding my Encad NovaJet Pro 600e . . . How bad an idea is it to mix GS and GS+ inks in the same reservoirs and cartridges? I want to use up some ink on hand and I'm not worried much about the output quality on these runs (basically some "novelty" prints...

Graphix, Raul, Same solution worked for me! I'm having the problem less often now anyway (no idea why not though!). Thanks, EVERYONE, for the help! Ken

I haven't fully resolved this yet, but found a posting on another site offering "support". They said I need a new mainboard (surprise: they sell refurb Encad parts) and quoted me $800 + shipping to repair mine (ha!). I know I've seen used/working/pulls and probably even refurbs of these on...

Hi Techman, My 600e is paid for too: Cash, cheap, for a little bit of a fixer-upper - needed new ink lines, a new belt, a few new quick-connects, and of course new cartridges. And most recently a new paper sensor. In all, I could still easily sell it for less than the $ I have in it, but...

Hi Lavelle, A Roland would be serious overkill for my application. A little more detail. . . * 300 dpi is sufficient * "draft" quality is sufficient * color accuracy only needs to be roughly in the ballpark * very few fills, and not a problem if they look a little uneven or weak *...

Resetting everything to default didn't help. Removing/reinstalling memory didn't help. But. . . I gave "Clear NVRAM" a try, and that fixed it at least temporarily. The problem came back when I tried to load media again. The media I'm playing with at the moment is very thin - almost like...

Thanks Border, Techman, OldPaint for the quick replies! I can only find a carriage-mounted paper sensor, an auto-load sensor, and the two feed sensors that monitor the roll feed and take-up (and the encoder sensor but that isn't related to paper). I couldn't find a "front media sensor" - the...

Hi all, I'm new here - found this place as one of the last likely to have people with Encad NovaJet knowledge, and I'm hoping someone can help me troubleshoot. . . My printer recently started having a couple of intermittent problems. Once in a while, it would unload (backward-feed) the...
