Last time I had a head fail I couldnt even start the machine up to get to the settings to disable the head. Kind of defeats the point doesnt it? Now that my LM is about dead in my head2, I want to disable it so I can still print fine with head1. And if the head completely fails, I'll still at...

Hi everyone! I have a rastek h652 thats past end of life and can no longer get support for it (though this isnt the sort of thing support would help with anyway), and we're wondering if its possible to replace the UV bulb set up with an LED UV set up. In theory this doesnt sound impossible at...

Hello everyone! Our 652 just stopped turning it lights on. We checked the thermal sensors for continuity and they seem fine. We've tested the capacitor and it seems to be doing what it should. We changed lights just in case they both burned out at the same time and they still wont turn on...

Just wondering if anyone has bought any print heads from these guys and can tell me how it went. Thanks! Ivan

Hey guys! I've been working with this printer for several years now. You always have to purge the heads before printing, and while white purges just like the rest it takes a little bit more effort to get the white acceptable. Thats always been the case. However, now when purging white takes...

Hey guys! We're buying another XC-540 from a few states over and will be driving it down in a trailer. I've done a lot of reading up on it, but one thing I'm confused about is where to lock the carriage. Im looking for some sort of blue head lock something and I dont see it. Thank you!

Hey Guys! XC-540 Changed my black print head a few weeks ago. Everythings been going great. Been printing a ton and everything looks great. Took the day off yesterday and came back today and Yellow and Black are not printing anything during the print test. I switched cap tops. There was...

Okay, so this XC-540 was our backup, but is now the primary so its seeing a lot of action. I was never a fan of the take up reel, but now it doesnt matter and I HAVE to use it. So i use the rollers you stick into the side of the vinyl. I lock it in place. It tracks fine out of the...

Hey guys! I have to replace the black head due to dropout and cant find any info about CE4W vs CE4W1. Anyone have any ideas?

Just as the title says, thank you!

Dampers, probably cap tops, sub tank, print heads. I think I can do it all, but what software will I need to get everything working correctly in the end? Where can i find information on this?

Hello! So over the course of 4-5 years I've had the black ink drop out on one side of the head then the other head to follow. At one point this was happening every six months. Had decision one out several times, replaced head and damper, and everything was fine for six months. Last time they...

Ran into a really stupid problem, and wanted to post it here in case someone searches for this issue (as I found absolutely nothing in my searching) they have something to go off of. Anyway, summa one day just started cutting normally for most of the print and then randomly some part wasnt...

I've profiled plenty with Caldera. However my greys always end up looking like they have too much magenta in them. Anyone familiar enough with 9.2 to maybe suggest something I'm missing? Thanks!

We run Caldera and it takes care of all of our needs including profiling. However, we also have a rastek H652 uv flatbed printer, and caldera is not compatible with that. So for the UV printer we are using firey 4.5. Fiery has a built in linerization tool, but the profiling tool is an...

I have an XC-540mt and its no longer cross cutting things deep enough. I've never changed the blade so I think its time for that. Can anyone provide me of a picture of the blade so I can confirm that this pile of blades on my desk is what is actually needed. Any kind of tutorial or walk...

http://imgur.com/a/Svd3R Just wondering if anyone had a suggestion as to what may be wrong. If the head is fine after sitting for several hours, is it really a head issue? Also, I can replicate this every morning if I wanted to. Thanks!

it completely craps out. We just had the head replaced 6 months ago, and now were having an issue again. Ran my first print of the day 47"x123" mural that printed fine. Then when the printer started on the second mural, the black just completely dropped out. It LITERALLY happened at the end...

I've recently taken over responsibility of our Graphtec FC8000. Today while perf cutting the blade assembly just fell apart and I lost the blade that was in the assembly. I have a few more assemblies around and even more blades but they all look the same. So before I try one of these blades...

Okay, I have a graphtec FC8000 and its controlled with Caldera. My issue with perf cutting is that later on in the cutting process the machine will start to get off course. I assume this is due to the fact that when I'm cutting, the rollers will go over things that were cut, and since the...
