Fastek, You are correct. I know of machines you can get for 25k that are in working condition. But if I was going to buy one used, I would want it refurbished and calibrated. I would also be interested in support and warranty. I don't know of an

I found this pot, and tried adjusting it. It was already turned to its maximum, and the histogram did not look good. I tried replacing the board lamp and this helped the histogram a lot, but I am not able to get the bars centered in the green. The

Brad, Thanks for the info. Now that I have my align data set correctly I'm having this problem. I've greased and realigned until I'm blue in the face. If I do a nozzle change then a function 30, press the nozzle on with my finger and do a functio
