carriage

We have a JFX200-2513. Recently the movement of the head started to get very loud. It seems like the head is having trouble or added resistance moving. I am thinking that the slide units on the linear rails are starting to go bad. I see that they have grease zerks on them, but they have a...

Hello signs101 guru's, im having very odd problems with my mutoh valuejet 1324x. i was having 1 in streaks of pink/magenta at the start of my prints and pretty bad banding (pic with the pink and banding) i ended up switching out the dampers and maintenance station. the problem persisted...

Need to replace the line sensor on my 360. Was getting a 55:10 error and the machine won't boot up now. I was able to locate the sensor on the carriage, but does anyone know how to remove the silver part on the carriage [highlighted in red]. I need to get behind that to remove & replace the...

I wanted to share a very bizzare problem that I had in case anyone else runs into the same issue. I have a Mimaki CJV150-130 printer that is about 2 1/2 years old. I recently bought a new computer and I use Flexi 12 subscription service. So I downloaded the newest version of Flexi and...

I had the problem, that my L25500 didn't accept the printhead 3! I thought, updating the firmware to the newest release will help! After I did that, a failure 86:01 showed up in the initialization routine for the carriage. The carriage moves shortly to right and the starting process stops. I...

Currently firmware version 5.0.0.8 is on my L25500. The latest version for download is GG-CAL_07_00_01.5 ..but that won't load on the machine. There was a version 6.0.1.6 that is no longer available for download. (anyone have that by chance?) So, now I need to figure out how to get that...

We turn on our Roland RS640 and straight away a message come up press power key to clean. When we press the power key after a few seconds the carriage motor seems to lock up. It does not matter if the carriage is in the home position or up the other end. We then get the service call 0102 message...

I have been working with a Mimaki CG-FX 130 for a couple of years that likes to scratch thicker or laminated substrates. Blade depth is good, pressure adjusted and the carriage bearings are tight. I was in a sign shop (I manage a printing co) the other week and they have the same plotter albeit...

I did a rail lubrication like normal and then the carriage moved back and forth to spread the lubricant. When it got to the left side it made a loud noise and gave the 86:01 Substrate Jam warning. There was no substrate in the printer. I did get a spot of oil on the encoder strip while...

I need some help. I've had this plotter for several years without any problems. I tried to plot with it and it asks for type of media (ie:Roll, sheet) so I pick either one and the blade carriage moves slowly to the far left then hits the end and gives me "ERROR E01019" message. I've installed...

Hi Our JV33 has become very noisy over the past 2 weeks when the head carriage goes back and forth. I have spoken to an engineer who gave me a price for a new motor, but thought I'd check with other JV33 users before I spend a bunch more money on it. I just spent over $2.5k on a new head after...

I appreciate any info I can get. My problem exist somewhere. Basically, my cut pressure is going away. Where I use to cut htm2 vinyl at 50 grams, i'm now at 95 and when Im trying to cut 3 mil lamination, it barely cuts trough it. Then of course when I cut 11 mil and above for MX graphics, it...

I have a Roland SC-500 that gives a motor error because the print carriage stops moving part way down the track when printing but when I use the SC-500 as a vinyl cutter it works fine. If I turn off the power and manually push the print carriage with the cutting carriage together down the track...

I have an unusual issue with black ink on our Colorspan 72UVX. It appears that black ink is leaking into the carriage, but I'm not sure what is causing it or how I can fix the problem. A couple months ago, in the middle of a print, our Colorspan 72UVX quit putting out black ink. We printed...

Hey just wondering if anybody has run in to this problem before and if they had any solutions. We are kind of out of the way of any technicians. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/62247391/printerbelt%20noise.mp4

Hello, We have been having a problem for a few months now. We are getting a faded banding that gets worse as the carrige goes away from the starting point. It is happening in uni and bidirectional printing, fast and normal, 8 pass 4 pass. We have adjusted the room temp and humidity,changed...
