clemphoto Posted August 24, 2010 Report Share Posted August 24, 2010 We are experiencing horizontal banding line problems with our Copal DPB 1000E printer. This has been a habitual problem,but in recent weeks getting much worse. We have tried all the usual cleaning of print head but to no avail. Anyone had experience of this problem? Anyone service these printers?? Anyone got a refurbished model for sale?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TeriW Posted September 5, 2010 Report Share Posted September 5, 2010 Hi, I have had this problem before also and replaced the print head - very expensive but it worked. In Perth Australia, a local company did the repairs - i believe there is only one person here that fixes them. i am at home today but will look up the paperwork tomorrow if you still need the info. let me know. note i have since sold it on ebay but i got much less for it than the cost of the repair. teri Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colopt Posted September 6, 2010 Report Share Posted September 6, 2010 I have one of these printers, though I have never had banding I have had white spots on parts of the print. The print head was replaced, but its still not that good, and yes print head replacement is expensive. Was never really happy with the print quality from this printer, and consumables are expensive.

TeriW Posted September 21, 2010 Report Share Posted September 21, 2010 the white spots could be dust particles (quite invisible to the naked eye). i used to get medical methylated spirts from the pharmacy to give the rollers and surrounding areas a good clean. I only ever used a lint free cloth. this might help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damit Ink Posted June 29, 2011 Report Share Posted June 29, 2011 I have a Copal DPB-1000 for sale. It is in perfect working order (badly under utilised) i also have a spare unused media set (6x4) to go with it. I am in Perth, Western Australia. message me or txt 0403369234 if you might be interested in it. Not good for spare parts - it is as new, so instead use your existing printer for spare parts and use this as a brand new printer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
