Problem: Backup Sensors Errors.
Solution:
- Autofocus is not detecting the workpiece. Remember the basic rule that the work must
be flat, and it must be located in the upper left hand corner.
Problem: Inadequate Exhaust
Solution:
1)
The closer the blower is to the machine the better exhaust you
will receive.
2)
If you are using flex hose do not bundle up the excess. Stretch
out the flex hose and use only what you need.
3)
Cleaning of your exhaust system on a regular basis including engraver and
blower. Use a bottlebrush and a vacuum on the areas where the exhaust buildup
accumulates.
Problem: Engraver will not power up. Nothing transpires when engraver is
turned on.
Solution:
1) Verify there is power being supplied to the engraver, that your
outlet is in good working condition and that the engraver is
actually plugged in.
2)
Check to make sure the carriage can be moved freely with the
power off. If the engraver can’t find the home position it will not power up
properly.
Problem: Poor engraving quality.
Solution:
1)
If you feel you are not getting the depth that you once were, this is more then
likely a maintenance issue. See section thirteen for instructions on cleaning the
optics. If you are not sure of the location of all of your mirrors contact Epilog.
2)
If you are experiencing a blurry or erratic image, check to make sure you are in
focus and all optics are clean. Verify that the design is not to close to the edge
of your page in CorelDRAW. Increase your border by .25 inch.
3)
If you are experiencing a double image problem or any other quality issue, it is
best to run a sample of what the machine is doing and send it to Epilog attention
Technical Support. Please include a letter stating the configuration of your
machine along with speed and power settings of the sample you ran and any
other pertinent information.
Problem: Image at the wrong location on the work piece.
