Question:
Can you customize our printer and install a Continuous Ink Supply System (CISS) on a VP Color printer?
Answer:
Regarding your request to install a CISS (Continuous Ink Supply System) on a VP Color printer, unfortunately, our work schedule is currently full, and we aren’t able to take on custom modifications at this time. Additionally, modifying VP Color printers to support CISS is not as straightforward as other printers like Epson or Canon models. VP Color printers are designed with a unique ink delivery system, and altering it for continuous ink flow can pose significant challenges. These challenges include potential software or hardware incompatibility and the risk of damaging internal components if the CISS isn’t perfectly calibrated to the printer's specifications.
If you’re determined to pursue a CISS setup, it’s essential to confirm that the printer model is compatible with such modifications. For VP Color printers, we recommend consulting a specialist who has experience with this specific brand. Customization might involve complex steps such as recalibrating the ink sensors, managing ink flow rates, and bypassing OEM error systems.
Addressing printer issues and modifications can be complicated due to the hands-on nature of the work. While we are unable to provide remote troubleshooting or support for printer customizations, we do offer in-person evaluation and repair services through our local diagnostic facility.
