pepe21 Posted February 28, 2012 Report Share Posted February 28, 2012 when running the 8" magazine reg. print stops before the exposure unit. I can run regular 8 " prints but i need to do the setup on 8". I ran the sensor adjustment and replaced the printer I/O 1 and still get the same problem.

Dave S Posted February 28, 2012 Report Share Posted February 28, 2012 Check the CVP printer is not set too close to the paper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave S Posted February 28, 2012 Report Share Posted February 28, 2012 By regular prints I guess you mean 8x6 8x10 & 8x12? Have you tried an 8x14 sized print? (around the same length as the setup print) I suspect the tail end of the print is being held back by something at around 14" (356mm). Maybe something is bent slightly out of shape on the brackets for the CVP pressure plate. On shorter length prints the tail end is completely clear of the CVP etc so it does not cause a jam.

pepe21 Posted February 28, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2012 just change the paper supply unit and I still get the same error. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave S Posted February 28, 2012 Report Share Posted February 28, 2012 I really think the problem is purely a mechanical one due to the fact all the other shorter prints go through normally. Check the print slides through the area where the CVP print head is easily by hand. Ensure the arm slides smoothly from left to right. I personally don't think you have any electronic/ electrical issues that are causing this problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pepe21 Posted February 28, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2012 I h ave adjusted the heights where the paper supply sits and I already got two prints but the third did not went trough(8x14) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pepe21 Posted February 28, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2012 The top roller on the exposure unit seem like it does not close when the paper feeds on the second print/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave S Posted February 28, 2012 Report Share Posted February 28, 2012 But why is it only doing that on long prints? I think the print is being held back, so the machine times out and stops everything. The problem is on the trailing end of the print not the leading end. If there was a problem in the exposure advance unit, it would effect all the prints, not just the long prints. I'm guessing the print does not even enter the exposure advance unit? Maybe gradually reduce the advance length from 356mm until you get to the point it does not jam, then you will know exactly where on the trailing edge of the print it is getting caught. Basically anything longer than your non jamming advance length value on the left side of the print (trailing edge). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
