  1. Gerber Edge Printhead Needed

    We have a Gerber Edge FX with a printhead pixel starting to go out. We have had this problem with an Edge, Edge II and with the Edge FX about 3-4 times in the past 12 years and I have always been able to avoid the absurd (to me at least) process and expense for buying one from Gerber. Between...

  7. Epson L1440 Printhead for CJV150 - is it worth it?

    Hey there! I was suggested by a local dealer to replace my damaged DX7 printhead with this Epson L1440, because it's less expensive. My machine is CJV150. I wonder if it's worth it.

  14. HP 360 Printhead mark

    Does anybody know what is causing these marks? Obviously the printhead, but always in the same axis and never in multiple areas. It repeats every once in awhile. Doesn't make sense with a printhead in motion to have a non-strike or smear mark. I have physically cleaned

    Are there head replacement kits for Mutoh available?
