My md 5000 will not work any more. It keeps teling me that an ink ribbon is missing, usually a different one each tine or a "cr " failure. It is old now. I would like to have it overhauled. Ken Cloughley. [email protected]

I have an alps 5000 that won't pick up the ribbon cartridges?

It could be a serious error with the cartridge changer. Take a close look at the chagner for anything that looks bent or mis-aligned. Also, may sure all of the positioning sensors are clean.

White ink printing with alps MD 5000

To print white, you need to use the spot color option in the printer properties. The object to be printed must be all black. It seems counter to what you might think, but the spot color mode will print the solid black areas as the selected spot color.

My alps md 5000 doesnt seem to be printing decals as clear as it

these printers are flaky. There is a reason why the mainstream never picked ALPS up. The image quality stinks and the printer break down constantly. Koolaid drinkers in search of the grail love them.
