Re: lines extend beyond the print

2006-01-31 by Steven Karafyllakis

Hello Lea,

Unfortunately I have no good news-that problem is caused by the head 
controler board or the head itself going bad, and the repair bill is 
too high to make sense considering you can still get factory 
refurbished 1280s for what it costs to have them repaired plus 
shipping-sorry. If you print primarily in one tone you could 
relocate the relevant ink shades and eliminate the positions that 
are not being controled properly. That might give you some aditional 
mileage while you decide what to replace it with.
