:goodpost: addie, that's perfect!

hahaha. yeah, that sounds like craigslist.

excellent idea, but it won't work. i think i may have blown my only chance with that when i put the new cartridge in.

that was my next thought too. so i looked in the service manual and it has instructions to test the "ink sensor", but since i have the warning to change the ink cartridge, i can't get into the menu to test the sensors!! arghhhh

ok... the pin that punctures the cartridge appears to be fine, as the cartridge is punctured. next, i took off that front cover to have a look, and i couldn't see or feel anything in the magenta lines.

thanks, i will check that out! where would those lines be, in the area where the cartridges are inserted, or how do i access them?

when i first put in the new cartridge it looked like it was going to work. then i ran a cleaning, the pump worked for a while, and it then it beeped a couple of times and said to replace the magenta cartridge again.

well, i tried a new ink cartridge and i'm having the same problem. so now it might be a pump problem?

i have two printers, one was working fantastically, the other was a piece of crap. we brought the tech in, for some reason he thought he could make the #1 printer even better than it was....and it is printing at about 50% the quality it was before, and he had to come out 5 or 6 times to continue...

This is exactly the problem. They were doing things that I could do, but charging obscene amounts of money for it.

I will put a different magenta cartridge in and see if that works. the problem with calling a service tech is that we cannot find a decent one in colorado, i have been doing all maintenance and repairs myself using the service manual...i think with a pump problem i'd be in over my head. i...

yes it is a seiko cartridge, brand new just opened

bump! anyone have any ideas??

This morning, I ran a normal cleaning on my Seiko Colorpainter 64S. When the cleaning was done, it said "Open R cover, change magenta ink", no biggie, I took it out, the cartridge felt pretty empty, so I changed it out. Then I send a job to the printer. It kicks on and starts preheating, but...

completely agree. he is outsourcing one part of his job. i think they are awesome, and they are a huge thing right now.

YES exactly! I will look at these links, thanks everyone!

if i end up figuring it out, i'll let you know!

Adhesive-Backed Foam Rubber...that's the best way I can think of to describe what I'm looking for. A very long time ago, the sign person before me ordered a roll of this stuff. I use it as a backing on check writing mats (it's non-skid). It is black, with a very strong adhesive on one side (with...

Gino, I think you're being a bit irrational here. Don't vote for him if you don't want to, but don't make it sound any different than any other vote-asking around here. BTW, adtechia, you got my vote!

Thank you, Mike. I will look at that! Gino, it's for tshirts for our shop. Not a paying customer. Just a fun little project.
