VP-540 stops printing

 My printer started this about a month ago. It has been happening at least once a day. The printer will print maybe a third of the job then stop, the lcd screen reads "now processing". We let it sit for awhile but never starts to print. This is happening even when doing multiple prints of the same job. Will print 5 in a row then the next will have the problem. Job log only shows unknown print error. I usually shut off printer and then resend job. Any suggestions on what is going on?See More

"Todd, We found a tech that can come that is only half hour away. For future reference where would you be traveling from. We are 45 minutes north of Pittsburgh. Thanks"

"If you have no experience, then you'll need a tech to save you a ton of headaches. If you're willing to cover travel, I can assist you in the replacement if you're having trouble getting a tech onsite."

Over spray

Started getting cyan over spray around prints. Did a manual cleaning of printer did not help also cleaned encoder strip no change. Did a nozzle check and it shows bad drop out on cyan head, I wish I did nozzle check before I manually cleaned but I didn't. Thinking I might have damaged head while cleaning. I also changed cap top no change. I have attached pictures of the over spray and nozzle print. Any ideas?See More

Cleaning Cycle

My printer (VP-540) is going into cleaning cycle in the middle of a print job. It has never done this before. Do I have something set wrong or is this normal and just never happened to me before. After cleaning cycle it continues the print job.See More
