    MGI Meteor DP8700 XL???????

Support here in Africa is a big joke and at present it seems we know more about the machine that the agents here. It is basically a KM...

    Error Code C-4520 on my KM C-6500

    Wow, thanks for the info - had a similar problem and as it turns out the belt was buckling a bit and I managed to fix it - later had some issues with the sensors which were dirty since the "brushes" were soiled too. Eventually had the problem so often that we realised there was another problem...

    Agfa Accuset 1000 Calibration hassles

    Thanks VladCanada Your reply makes perfect sense. Late yesterday I have gotten hold of the AGFA Calibrator and the AGFASet software, which was not shipped with the Imager. I will install it today on a PC, connect it to the device and proceed with the calibration curve. Used to to something...

    Agfa Accuset 1000 Calibration hassles

    Hi pdan, thanks for the reply. I did exactly that. When I press enter to store the values the imager diplay says: "storing Values" or something similar. BUT then it simply returns to the previous values!!!!

    Agfa Accuset 1000 Calibration hassles

    Hi maxon. I focus on the image setter because I want to be able to change the light intensity of the laser (exposure) anyway. The chemical are good and fresh and the processor is clean.
