spectrum z510 software problems

[stefan66]

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

Could you tell me pls what did you get instead of original binder bottles and original connectors?

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 between the bags of binder and the machine.

It seems to be working pretty well so far.

Thank you so much!! You are in time and super helpful with the answer. Especially with the powder advice.

Could you please share a link on hp 11 print heads that are right for z510. And do they really need to be different color or it doesn’t matter if they are let’s say black color? How do they work?

Thank you in advance!!!

Hi,

Try www.3dcolors.pl - tested on 660pro and Z510. Works fine. Very cheep.

Hi,

If any one is interested in testing some binders I would recommend www.3dcolors.pl

“canadapowder” these guys have the same cheap prices and even cheaper on stuff like clear binder and head cleaner. Meanwhile they look more legit

I have zcorp 650 and it works perfectly , once i insert the ethernet cable and connect to the laptop the machine freez and i have to restart.

Hi!!
I’ve z510 for long time and I give some break using the printer. Now I’ve started it and LCD shows only the welcome note “high quality 3D printer”. Printer isn’t working and not even responding to keys.it would be great if anyone suggest what can be the issue?

[kaligula20]

Plug in PS2 keybord and VGA plug monitor at the back to see what is going on. First thought stuck on BIOS setting or the BIOS battery is down.

[Sibghaaleem]

Thank you for help.
What should appear on monitor when I connect it in vga plug? Am I supposed to give input through keyboard? If yes then how?

[kaligula20]

Like I wrote, you will se the BIOS starting up (normal like in every PC), if you are familiar with PC you will find on the screen some info. Probably BIOS battery dead. Just plug the monitor and PS2 keyboard and you will see.

I’ve attached keyboard and monitor but it shows different errors like time/date

[Sibghaaleem]

When I press f1 (boot) then it shows screen like this

[kaligula20]

Typical, I as mentioned the BIOS battery is dead. You must replace the battery on the motherboard. Diskette error will probably does not matter in booting but can be switched off in BIOS setup.

The other photo shows online state and normal operation I think so this means you can print. If you need any cheap quality binders for the printer send me a message.
