I was in the process of relacing my print head and going through the steps where you unscrew with the hex and I accidently hit next and it moved the print head so I didnt have access to lift up the scewed in area. There was no back button at that point so I just clicked next through all the steps so I can restart from the beginning (or so I thought).

After the last step the printer assumed I put in a new print head and it needed to initialize before I could do anything. It would not let me go to the replace the print head steps again as it kept saying busy. Anyway I initialized it, it injected ink and it ran a test pattern but its now at the camera calibration and it fails. My print head doesnt print black anymore so its going to continue to fail at that point and it will not let me go back to the replace print head (still says busy, probably until I finish the initialization).

What options do I have to get past this camera calibration screen if my printer isnt printing?

I tried coop pillow and multi other brands and they aren’t doing it.

As of last year I started getting pain in my neck that led down to my arm. I went to a specialist and we did PT for a month or so and got some new pillows and the pain disappeared. It seems it’s back now as I feel it in my neck and arm (could be getting a continuous pinched nerve or something who knows).

Anyway looking at the Purple pillows now. I am a side and back sleeper. Can’t decide between the Harmony, the Freeform or the DreamLayer.

Any opinions on any of them?

Injected ink today since my printer was in moisturize mode for last few days. The cyan doesn’t print. I have done 3 deep cleanings, a few medium, etc. I have done the test print and just focused on blue and nothing. I tried printing 3 blue boxes (of different shades) and all I get is red. Is my printhead done? Hopefully there is something I can do to get it to work again. Any ideas?

I have had this printer for a few years now I feel like this wasn’t always the case and it’s more of a recent thing. Anyway my colors are never consistent. Some days they are too blue some days they are too warm and yellow. I am using the correct profile and nothing has changed. I heard humidity can play a part but it’s hardly that hot here. What else would be causing these color shifts?

Stopped taking semaglutide because of non stop diarrhea and burping. It’s been about 12 days since my last injection. Since stopping I am getting chest pains (feels like burps are stuck on my upper chest). I already went to the ER where my EKG and blood work were perfect. Has anyone else experienced this terrible gas buildup (I am assuming that is what it is)?

I tried many over the counter meds but nothing is working. I can’t even get myself to calm down which isn’t helping since my heart is racing from this anxiety.

Just seeing if anyone else experienced this or any ideas or suggestions on what to do.

(Edit* meant to type 12 days and not 1/2)

Been using a low dose for a couple months now (down some decent weight) and the last two weeks I have started with these terrible burps, insane stomach gurgling and diarrhea. It lasts a couple days each time. I am assuming something is setting it off but can’t pinpoint what it is. I don’t eat that much to begin with, so there are no big meals.

Does this happen to anyone else? Looking for ways to avoid this as it’s horrible when it happens.

Been having this problem all day and looking for answers hopefully. I am printing on acrylic as I have done hundreds of time before. The last top layer is smearing. Happens everytime around the same spot, and this is only happening on one specific image. Other images seem to be printing fine. I am doing CMYK - White - CMYK. The first CMYK layer is perfect, it seems to just be affecting the top most layer. No idea why or how to even fix this. Any ideas?

My machine is in maintenances mode or whatever it’s called currently. In the past it was always quiet when just sitting there once in that mode (every 3 or 4 days). Anyway today since I’m not using it and don’t need to inject ink I keep hearing the machine moving fluids and it’s being noisy. Was there some update or something? Again in the past it was always quiet once it’s in the moisturizing state and stays quiet until I I inject the ink and start using it again.

I am noticing in my reverse uv prints I am seeing some lint under that first layer(which is then magnified when lit up). I clean the acrylic with a clean microfiber cloth and never notice anything on it before printing. Since I’m reverse printing and not building ink on top of the acrylic I notice every little spec that is getting stuck under that first layer.

Anyway what else can I do to prevent this? Any tips?

*unless of course I should be just printing straight on for backlit instead of reverse and on the inside? That would solve my problem but it offers no protection to the image.

Not sure if this is the right spot to post this but hoping it is or someone can give me some insight.

I make smaller size signs that I travel a bit around with to sell at trade shows etc. I originally bought some 1/8” and after leaving it outside for about 20 mins (it’s not even real hot out yet in my area) it started to warp. Now it was in the direct sunlight as I was just curing some UV ink, so maybe that had something to do with it.

Anyway I feel like I need to go back to the drawing board. For signs (roughly 15”) that will sit in my car in the summer (packed away in boxes but stacked on top of each other in the boxes) would it be better to use 1/4 or can I get away with 3/16?

I am going to assume the 1/8 will bend in the summer heat just being inside a car without direct sunlight?

Any help or guidance. Thank you!
