  1. Question Valujet Maintenance Station

    a while back, I know I saw somewhere on someones website that they offered a kit to rebuild a valuejet maintenance station. I think it had maybe a pump, tubing, a new wiper rail, and I do not remember what else. does anyone know if this is still available somewhere? thanks
  2. Need Help 1204 Ink flow problems

    My 5 year old 1204 has been printing fine up until a couple weeks ago. I started having black issues (not strong, vibrant black). I have suspected I needed to replace my maintenance station for a couple months due to it sounding a little weird when it was cleaning, but I had not. my nozzle...
  3. Flexi 8.5 not opening

    anyone else having trouble connecting to the server to open flexi 8.5? I cannot get my computer to connect to their server and their website seems to be down for me. thanks
  4. Generic Parts

    What are some opinions on third party parts for Mutoh printers. Some parts I see no way there can be a difference (i.e. dampers) but what about maintenance stations, printheads, etc. There cannot be that many companies that make these parts one would think, but what are some experiences with...
  5. Mutoh Service Tech

    Hopefully someone has the answer to a question I have had for a while. If you use a Mutoh Service Tech that is listed on the Mutoh Website and they do something to cause a problem (i.e. while changing a damper, they crack the nipple on a head, or they change a maintenance station and ink keeps...
  6. 1204 Waste Tray Wanted

    If anyone happens to be parting out a 1204, I would be interested in the waste tray. Please let me know if anyone has this part. Thanks
  7. Why no yellow?

    Went to print this morning and my yellow quit printing about one inch into the print. Now the test only has intermittent yellow (a couple lines maybe). The damper is full, so it seems my problem is between the damper and the head. Kinda like it is not getting ink to the head or it is not...

  9. Two Version of Flexi on one Computer

    Have version 8.5 on my computer right now, recently aquired version 10. If I have a softkey for 8.5 and a USB key for 10, will there be a problem running both at the same time, will there be a conflict? Thanks
  10. Mutoh Take Up Reel

    Anyone know if you can adapt a take up system from a Falcon outdoor 46 to be used on a 1204 valujet? Thanks
  11. Falcon Parts

    Anyone else heard that EPSON has discontinued production on the DX2 printhead used by the Falcon Outdoor, Roland, Mumaki, and other printers? I was told by my EPSON supplier that they will no longer be available from EPSON and they will probably start phasing out other parts that are based on...
  12. Can anyone help?

    Today, my Falcon Jr. started something new. When I manually, or it automatically, goes into a clean, it beeps three times before starting. No error messages, nothing that would suggest a problem, just three beeps and then it starts cleaning. If I do a nozzle check and it does not clean first...
  13. Falcon Jr Print Server Issue??

    I have a Falcon Jr that is not well. This morning I tried to print and flexi did its thing ripping, but when it should have started printing, it just acts like it is sending info to the printer, but the printer is not moving. If I unplug the SEH server from the wall and plug it back in and...
  14. Just Wondering

    I woud assume that Epson makes the ink cartridges for mutoh printers and that probably is done in Japan, so will the tsunami cause any disruption in the supply of ink? Maybe not the most important thing to worry about concerning Japan, but it does concern me if there is a potential problem
  15. Need Falcon Ink Cartridges

    I hope I am not breaking any rules, if so, I apologize and plesase delete, but if anyone has any empty Falcon Outdoor Ink Cartidges (the new ones that have been giving trouble) lying around that you are going to throw away I might be interested in them if the price is right. do not want...
  16. Anyone Else Think?

    I replaced a capping station about a month and a half ago on my falcon jr. due to cap swelling and now i am already getting cross-contamination on the new assembly. i looked at the caps and they are swollen again. I understand that it happens, but i do not expect it within a two month period...
  17. Mutoh Ink

    I guess most of you have noticed that mutoh ink now comes in a different cartridge. if you hold an old one up to a new one they look a little different. ever since they have come out with this new cartridge when i put one in my falcon jr. i get an error message (whatever color) CARTRIDGE. if...
  18. Cleaning Falcon Jr Head

    is there a trick to getting to the bottom of the heads on a JR to clean them. it looks a lot easier on a 46" where you can remove the plate on the end, but it looks a little harder on the JR. just thought i would see if anyone has any little tricks to get it clean around the bottom of the...
  19. Falcon Jr. Issue

    Today, I looked at my dampers and found them full, so I figured I would change them. While I had the printer apart, I noticed that my pump gears was covered in ink and upon inspection, found a hole in the line. I had a pump, so I pulled the maintenance station out and changed the pump. I put...
  20. Head Deflection

    On a Falcon Jr, if the nozzle check shows all of the nozzles, but a few are deflected, will the all eventually fire correctly if you keep soaking and cleaning? My magenta has several defelcted nozzles and they produce a white line about every 1/32" in colors that magenta is a part of. I have...
