I have a dongle.

Yes, the box with yellow labels. It is mounted against 3 steel pins for proper alignment. Before doing anything check if it is pushed against metal frame, or you have some thin spacer between. Like piece of film or something. It is important to preserve image geometry. Pins marked RED. Than...

Unload film, unscrew laser module from the bottom. Do not remove spinner motor or any lenses inside. Only big lens on the top. Chris

Laser module need to be removed from the machine. Than you take out and clean the lens and got access to the rest of the optics.

When did you clean optics in that machine last time? Chris

You have PM.

HC springs you just loose screws and replace them. Removing screws is not needed. Easier to do. For TC springs is machine calling for 20000 replace? You must have engineer dongle inserted to reset that counter. Otherwise machine will stop at 21000. Still need help with that? I can elaborate...

According to that image best coarse focus is 2390. Put that value into 2540 field. Than expose another plate Initial value: 2320 Increment: 10 Count: 15 Start point: 10 Post a photo here, but try not to get light reflecting on plate for easier judgement.

Expose plate: Initial value: 2230 Increment: 20 Count: 15 Start point: 10 And show me the plate. No need to put it on the press.

You are far out of focus.

Any specific problem with that machine? Maybe I could help?

Fixed. -15V PS went south. Chris

Hello. Anyone could tell what that error means? Service manual is not helpful in that case. Machine reporting Ex127 during initialisation. Cheers, Chris

I need advice regarding focus on TP46 machine. Chris

Is it your machine or leased from Agfa? If yours, they have no right to lock it that way. In my country they unlocked for free.
