    Is the board in working condition ? If yes, before you buy a new one, disconnect and remove it. Get a big painting brush, a dish washing liquid, and give the old board a good wash.

  12. 1614 lever position. do you usually use light or hard?

    There is a step adjustment procedure in the user manual page 63. Using this you can check and adjust the forward step of your 1614. You need to set the lever at the second position, high pressure. I don't think the mechanism gets worn out. The only can get worn out in my opinion is the...
  13. 1614 lever position. do you usually use light or hard?

    I think it depends of the material you print. In most cases the light pressure is ok, if the material is slipping when moves forward then you need the extra pressure. The rollers condition also effect the right material movement.
  14. printing bad colors

    Does it turn off on every head cleaning ? When printing is it ok ? When the Valuejets turn off they need some time before power on again. Check your power cables if they fit well on their housings.
  15. printing bad colors

    My opinion about the spots, on the previous photos is... Too much ink, can not dry well. If you set the head to move only on the width of the sign, bidirectional, and the room where the printer is installed is quite cold, then you may experience this problem. The sprayed ink can not dry before...
  16. Valuejet 1614 head position

    Hello, as i know you should print thin materials in low head position. This makes the printing more accurate. The high position is only for thick materials. When you power off the VJ 1614 it prompts to lower the head, if it is in high position, otherwise it doesn't power off. Regards :thumb:
