Head pausing

[ykaldes]

Anybody using Versa with XJ640 have this experience: the printer is pausing every so often for a few seconds and then continue back printing? Anybody know what this could be? I'm using the most up to date version and this happen from time to time - not on all jobs.
take a look at this video:http://vimeo.com/34707160

almost looks like theres a pause in the data flow from the computer?

 

[ykaldes]

Yea, but the busy light keep blinking and why it is always stop at same side?

 

[WYLDGFI]

Are you ripping/printing at same time? or is the file pre ripped to print?

 

[ykaldes]

Never do that. Always RIP and then print one task at the time. The computer is clean with no internet connection (only manual connect), no virus programs - just Versa Acrobat and operating system. 4GB memory 2.3 Intel...go figure!

Make sure windows firewall is turned off. It wants check all the data and will sometimes do that.

I was having the same issue with large files. Tried new cable and even a new network card. The card helped a bit but not much. My old PC died so I got a new one and the problem has been solved. It's definitely a data flow issue. Open your task manager and click on network (the one that looks like a heart monitor). You will see the information being sent drop to zero just before the printer pauses. Than it'll spike and the print will continue.
I wish I new the exact cause of the problem but like I said, a new comp fixed the issue for me.
