Hey guys, sorry for the nooby questions but how do you bleed the lines and clear out all the gunk? Im afraid I might have air in the spetum tank as printhead 0 is in overtemp but Im wanting to completely flush out each line. Any instructions or link on how to do this would be a huuuuuuuuge help

If the machine hasn’t had it done I would just replace all the lines. But to flush all you need to do is draw distilled water through using your purge tool.

Thanks for the reply. What is the purge tool and how does it look like? I don’t think I received it with my printer.

Hi David, where abouts are you located? I’ve been refursbishing a z510 and the septum tank nozzles are rotten. They literally break right off when trying to pull off the tubing.

Hi,I’m very new to 3D printing and this hub. I recently got an old spectrum z510 and after weeks of cleaning I finally got it going. but now I encountered an error that I don’t know how to fix. It keeps coming back with error 2303 axis error. I followed the instruction but nothing seem to work. Does anybody know a way to reset the machine to default (factory) values? Thanks

I have some info here: http://www.charlesrivermaker.com/wiki/index.php/Helpful\_parts\_%26\_sources\_for\_material

I ordered new connectors on amazon and hydration bags that I hung from an aluminum rack that I attached to the side of the machine. I installed ink filters like these: http://www.ebay.com/itm/USA-10pcs-80mm-Ink-Filter-5-Micron-Resistant-for-Solvent-Ink-Printers-/322482154016?hash=item4b156f2a20:g:H3YAAOSwYXVYx6K4 16 between the bags of binder and the machine.

It seems to be working pretty well so far.
