Hello All.
I have purchased an almost like new PC-600 that looks to be a unit that was warehoused somewhere or refurbished and stored. It was suppose to be in prime condition but I suspect it was dropped on the way here to me. The top plastic smoked window is cracked at the screw joint on the left siide, but otherwise the unt looks new and is very clean.
The cartridge dropping and mishandling is an alignment issue I believe. If I bind the right side of the cartridge door by slipping something like a matchbook into the hinged right side as I close it, the pressure pushes the cartridge door to the left just a bit and the jamming will stop. It does however occassionally fail to secure the cartridges into the holders leaving them ready to drop when the door is opened.
Is there a hidden service setting for the alighment of the mechanism in relation to the cartridge position on the door panel? Also, is there a setting for the distance the cartridge is pushed in order to insure it is pushed a bit firmer into the holders? I have no way to know if that is an issue or simply it is still not aligned correctly.
Secondly, I',m having a problem with text. the lines are too tight and they lap each other. This is based on the data printed on a self test. The text is almost unreadable. There are some color issues also but I"m not sure yet what to make of this. Maybe it's all related and maybe it's an expensive problem or a simple one requiring some deeper level programming not shown in the user manual.
Anyhow, This machine is the perfect addition to my business. I need short run small sized runs and this will be ideal for me.
Unsure if I can post a picture here, I put a link to the self test ColorCam logo printout for anyone that might be able to give me some input after seeing this.
I appreciate your help, and thanks!
