It knows the ribbon from the chip on the cartridge that mates up to a sensor inside the printer.But first off, heres a little venting that I need to get off of my chest: I bought my photo booth from Mojo.I had done a little bit of testing here and there before setting it up at a friends wedding (thankfully for free).This was very dumb on my part because I was in no way prepared for the problems that arose.
And boy were there problems Issue 1: Camera Not Connected. We have since figured out this was due to the power source to the camera and have invested in a few batteries. Now this is not an issue.) Issue 2: If that wasnt happening, we were getting crazy, extremely poor quality pictures (see the first four attached pictures). To add to that - attached photo 5 is what the live screen looked like half the time. And we kept getting an error that would pop up and wipe out the current photo sequence that was being taken. After trying to get some help from Mojo (which was pointless), I went directly to Canon. They had me send back the camera and after running some tests discovered there WAS something wrong with the camera. This was good news to me since it meant it wasnt just operator error:). ![]() It would give us errors like Paper mismatch or Out of ribbon I believe they were. Eventually we just had to shut down the booth at my friends wedding. After which I tested at home for a half hour straight of print after print. No problems. So this past weekend I took the booth to another friends party. It worked for about 2 hours until the printer started giving me the same problems again. I ended up just turning the printer off and saving the strips as.jpeg only. Needless to say, after these issues, my spirit has been dampened a bit. I keep going back and forth on if I should keep trying to make it work or just try to sell it. However, I feel that if I could finally get this printer problem fixed, I could make a go of it. But I cant keep operating like this.keeping my fingers crossed every single time someone steps into the booth. ![]() I recommend sending in the paper work for 6 free months of coverage. Always check your ribbon paper before you start an event because they both can loosen during transportation. Not enough heat to fully melt the ribbon bad paper that wont release the ribbon correctly The printer knows the paper by the spools on the sides.
