    Spandex are a good supplier for this machine! They should be able to help you out with all the parts, generally seem very well priced on parts!

    Thanks for your suggestions guys, i didnt know spandex supplied mutoh parts and i completely forgot about tech 8. Turns out digiprint could supply the best price and fastest delivery time. (everything else i have ordered from digiprint has taken at least 2 weeks)

    Actually, thinking back im sure they didnt have all of the parts in stock at the time. Spandex have also just rang, they have the printhead in stock and its £3 more than digiprint, think il’ll just get one from them. thanks guys

    I had a print head problem with my soljet pro 3, all looked ok in test print, but when you went in the service menu you could see problems with one head, locally I couldn’t get help for a few days, and need to print a 10m wall for a trade show. Called my ink supplier http://www.xl-ink.co.uk and he got a genuine head out overnight, fixed it all myself and all has worked fine since, and about half the price of what they wanted over here.
