iPF8000 error 03130031-2618
Hi fellas,
This month has been crazy about errors.
I have a case with an iPF8000. Error 03130031-2618.
The point is that even in SM it will show the error and not let me do anything.
I cannot even replace print heads.
And the story keeps getting better.
Customer had previously bought a pair of PF-02 print heads.
So I cannot make an upgrade in software because than the plotter would require PF-03 print-heads.
I had a quick look at the plotter (between service visits) and some things are strange.
If you turn on with the "cover open" or "the lever raised" the plotter will sense them, BUT if I close the cover or lower the lever, these actions are not detected by the plotter. I cannot even turn it off at that point, I have to unplug.
Anyone has a clue ?

Re: iPF8000 error 03130031-2618
Yeah I was going to replace print heads, but the only way to do that is when the printer is off.
Even in sm it does not allow me to do anything.
To be honest I didn't like to replace print heads with the printer off.
I always do it by procedure. It can save a lot of hassle.
But I have no other way, so I will replace both of them and let you know.

Am new to this (but aging fast) and have an iPF6300 with the 03130031-2618 error. This error is just the same whether the print heads are in or not, or in fact if the timing strip is in (I forgot to replace it after a disassembly).
If you boot up a printer without the printheads in surely you get a "no printheads" message, if there is an error that is unrelated to the printheads then this will persist, as does the 2618.
It was owing the apparent fundamental nature of this error that it thought it must be the power supply and changed it. It was not and having changed other parts I think it might be the main controller.
There must be a diagnostic sequence together with symptoms that will point squarely towards a specific hardware failure rather than the sequential exchange of parts promoted by the service manuals. Change this, if that does not work change that, failing that change this next and so on.
How did things turn out in the end, was the printer fixed, and how was it fixed, or was it scrapped?
Thanks.
