Does anyone have or have access to the technician's service manual for a Screen PTR 8000? Mine is dead and I'm having trouble getting a tech up here this week. I'm able to fix a lot of problems with it but just ran into a bad one. We have the user manual for it but I'm thinking the techs have a different one.

I just have the user manual. What are you going to attempt?

No worries, yo, I found the problem and ordered a new part. The printhead couldn't find home. The tech thought it was a board. I started poking around and found the PH-3 sensor was broken. That is the home sensor for the printhead. I can fix it myself once the part comes in tomorrow.

I'll do it if you can fix our press. Prolly down until at least Monday due to the holiday weekend.

I liked it better when he wore pants (fewer "accidents")
