Still trying to figure this out JUV3 250SP 7.10 This is the most frustrating problem I've ever encountered with a JV3. I'm still getting head error 07 but here's the problem, it doesen't indicate any head it shows (_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _). I've replaced all the ribbon cables (slider to head) hooked...

No I'm running CMYK LC LM

Well I definetly get "Head 07 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ " when it troughs the error you think that means its a board???

What is the "data swap" you talked about in your previous reply?

I think it looks like _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ But I will look again the next time it happens

That's the bad part the message doesn't specify a head. Do you know how to figure out what head is causing the error? I did check all the cables they were replaced about 6 months ago and they look like they are in great condition no ink on the contact area and all contacts look good no missing...

It's not that difficult but it does require some mechanical ability and some knowledge of the machine. Has the head been like this or did it just start recently?

Make sure your cap for that head is in good shape. If it's worn and not making good contact it will not pull the proper volume of ink through the head causing the dropout your seeing. If this is something that just started happening that is the first place I would look. If the cap is good look...

I upgraded my Mimaki JV3 250SP to Firmware version 7.1. Immediately after rebooting I noticed the X and Y motors were making an annoying wirrrr sound and moving much slower than usual. Does anyone know what this is or how to fix?

I recently upgraded my Mimaki JV3250SP to Firmware version 7.1. Immediately after the upgrade there was a noticeable difference in the way the X and Y motors sounded, they now make an annoying wirrr sound and the seem to move slower. Does anyone know what this is and how to fix it?
