PrismJET in storage...

[Wowee18]

I recently purchased a used PrismJET. It has been in storage for approx. 2.5 months now and I need to bring it back online. As it stands it does not print at all - ink is not flowing. I saw it print before it went into storage so I know it works. My question is how do I best go about cleaning it up and getting it producing again? I am aware this will cost money to do, but does anyone have experience in this type of situation?

Many thanks in Grand Rapids, MI

Was the ink lines washed (head wash) before storage? If so do an ink fill and then a nozzle check to see if the print heads are firing. You may want to soak the heads and then a nozzle check it the printer ink lines are full. A refurbish kit, as well as other parts, for a Falcons can be bought at www.cmykparts.com. GeiCalgraph techs can be hired but they are not cheap. Your printer came from Sign Warehouse but is not supported anymore. I would call a Mutoh dealer in your area or call Gregory and they can point you in the right direction. There could many reasons for not printing now.
