We purchased the HP1050C ink tube replacement and are in the process of bringing the plotter back up.

Martin The 1050C probably has a problem with the pinch roller assembly.  There is a long cam rod that actuates the pinch assembly and the connection to that rod may be broken.  Another possibility is that the customer is trying to load a heavy media that is near the end of the...
