  1. 1614 68 encoder error

    Looking for some advice, in the last week changed the fence, encoder sensor, trailing cables, head board, is there something we are missing? In December last year replaced the head, head cables, main board, cr motor, pf motor, fence and encoder sensor (which was the problem). Something else...
  2. Mutoh 1614 troubles

    Printer ran all day today, good quality, no banding, no errors. Looks like the gremlin has moved on or just took a nap today. For now it looks like the $80 sensor fixed what thousands of dollars in main boards(3), motors, and heads(2) could not. I appreciate all the input, and Mr. Turner I...

    I may need that help, thanks. Printer powered up and is printing a test print now. Too soon to call but at least the orange data light is on again!

    Yes we did, at the end of the day today we will make the call. Thanks
  5. Mutoh 1614 troubles

    Brings up a good point, they are coming back today to change the encoder sensor. If this part swap still does not fix the machine is it reasonable to ask for a refund? After 5 weeks of lost production and parts (3 main boards now). I think the take up reel and the casters are about the only...

    After the second service call I did talk to another service company, initial estimate was 7K, said they would have to start over. So your advice is dead on, no second trips.

    Tech changed cables today, no change. He also changed cr board and put in a new main board (2nd new one). He thinks its the encoder reader. Will be back next Tuesday when part comes in. Machine won't get thru power up sequence to see if cables may have helped. Is my situation normal? They...

    Makes sense, thanks - will post after we get those changed. Appreciate the help.

    They have not replaced those, only the ones from the CR board to the head. Should replace all three while we are at it?

    They are "working in the background" with GEI. That's all I've been told, I'm trying to stay as professional as possible. I wouldn't wish this on any one but I was hoping maybe someone here had a similar problem. I would welcome any advice. Thanks

    No, I wish it was. We are on our 4th year with it. Absolutely no problems until now.

    Yesterday I put our old main board back in the machine and got the same 74cr errors in the same place.

    Looking for help with our Mutoh 1614. I will try to list step by step what was done to the printer. The initial problem was one complete yellow channel was not printing when doing a nozzle check. We changed the yellow damper, and the same channel still was missing from nozzle check. We called...
