  1. I think I have a solution to drying Falcon Jrs...

    I'd like to say that this works... Printer is stored in a warehouse - but is plugged in to a computer running the batch file. You can see how many days it has been since it was used by the number of strips on the piece of throwaway. Did have a problem in the late summer - things gummed up...
  2. More Members MIA

    Had pneumonia, then life generally went south... Trying to find job, and begging gas money for when I get interviews...
  3. Any hints on moving a Falcon Jr?

    It's gotta go up a straight flight of stairs, and then a 45 minute van ride into an office in my girlfriend's dad's warehouse.
  4. Mutoh Jr 38"

    I live. Almost finished moving this whole shebang to Jen's... It's fall already, and I'm still not really over last winter - it's like I need 12 hours of sleep a night, and have zero stamina. But hey, every day is better. Rebuilt the Falcon with help from CMYK, and I think I've figured a way to...
  5. I think I have a solution to drying Falcon Jrs...

    At least for the ones that are plugged directly into the parallel port on XP machines. There's also a workaround for network shared printers and USB printers, but I need to hunt it down... Make yourself a CMYK job that takes up a quarter inch or a half inch of material. Print it to a file...
  6. Mutoh Jr 38"

    I used Monoject 412 (you can get them off the internet/ebay). The tips are tapered to a very small hole.
  7. How to make your printer perk right up...

    Order a refurb kit for your Falcon Jr., after you get tired of looking at funky weirdness from letting the thing sit too long over the winter. After you have the thing, and have resigned yourself to taking everything apart, the printer will perk right up.
  8. Soaking The Print Heads

    Where does anyone get anything - Ebay! I'm using oem eco-ultra. Got a refurb kit on the way, but I may try to stretch things out somewhat...
  9. Soaking The Print Heads

    Well, we're gonna learn if the stuff eats a Kendall monoject 412 curved tip syringe... I've got a whole bunch of 'em...
  10. Musicians - Let's hear your stuff

    I can play the stereo... Tube preamp into a Hafler amp into a pair of Maggies... Otherwise, if friends gig, I'm the guy who carries stuff. BTW, if anyone is looking for a nice affordable tube preamp, google aric audio or check ebay for his stuff...
  11. Soaking The Print Heads

    What do you use for a cleaning cloth? And you just take hemostats or something and slide it back to the capping station? Or are some of you guys taking the sheet metal off the thing once a week?
  12. need help with printer problem

    Is there a good source to buy heaters? That seems to be one of the things that croaks...
  13. I am thinking of buying a Mutoh printer.

    What benefits do you get from a 48" printer? Seems like the standard sizes are more like 30", 54" and then above... When I replace this stuff, I'm just going to get a 60" or larger...
  14. I am thinking of buying a Mutoh printer.

    I think the main reason that folks unload Falcon Jr printers is that they'll only do 38" material and under... You can always stick a roll of 15" stuff in your 100" printer, but you can't go the other way...
  15. Well, if you don't use these things...

    Not walking down to the basement a whole heckuva lot has taken a toll. I'm ordering a refurb kit from imprintech... So y'all had better get ready for a buncha stupid questions. You know, it'd be nice to replace EVERY one of these damn screws with finger screws, as often as one needs to take...
  16. My falcon outdoor jr will not print black.

    Oh heck - I usually start out the bit with... "There may be an electrical glitch. I want you to unplug everything, and then plug it back in again." Wouldn't you know that a lot of times you hear someone mutter "Who the bleep unplugged this?" right before the gizmo miraculously works?
  17. Will Mutoh Falcon Jr accept 38" Media

    I've been running 38" stuff from Seattle Textiles with no problems. My local guy has been pushing some 39" LG material (two sided, not that pricey...), and I'm probably going to talk him into giving me a few feet first...
  18. Determining ink usage?

    I'm wondering if there is a way to find out how much ink was used for a job? My Epson's stuff will tell me down to 0.01ml how much gets used... And since you know you've got 220ml in a cart, and that they cost you $60 a pop, if you can figure out how much you're spraying, you could figure a...
  19. Large format printer/software

    Well, I print bumper stickers, various collateral, and large bloody art prints... On two different printers (altho I did get quite a deal on some vinyl for my Epson 9800 - and next week, I may even try lifting a roll of it...). These beasties are not going to be happy with sitting dormant and...
  20. Need Emergency CNC Routed Letter

    The left coast can't fedex for next day? I've dropped a coupla hundred to ship 50# but it was in east outlook virginia the next morning...
