Can you use this heat transfer media with the Mimaki UCJV300 UV printer?

I am still interested to hear if there are better profiles to use than the mimaki website offers. Reds and some other colors are not as vibrant as I would like them to be (and when matched to Pantone books). Also curious to hear what rendering intends people use, if any. These days I mostly...

I am on 2.9 and also got a message saving I could not update or contact supplier or something. Interested in this as well.

If your machine is bend, that mightbe a proper cause for the issue. My machine is 3 months old, looks brand new and straight (i think). There's a topic about "patchy printing" https://signs101.com/threads/mimaki-ucjv300-160-patchy-printing.162166/ which is an issue i also have. Could be caused...

I have this issue too. Visible in dark color blocks. Sometimes just bands like on your photo's, other times sort of weird patterns. Don't know how to describe it other than that. Might have to do with the lifting/bulging of the media i have a lot of the time. Also have minor headstrikes/ink...

Following this as I have this problem as well. Vinyl lifting slightly, mostly in the center, causing small head strikes and the ghosting effect when printing bidirectional.

Thanks a lot! I will check it out first thing in the morning. Really hope I am able to fix it and have the machine print and cut accurate again. I will let you know. Barry

Hi, I have a problem with my Mimaki CJV30-100. Want to cut squares of regular white sticker vinyl, size 199 x 199 mm. The easiest and quickest way to my knowledge is to draw that square in Illustrator and using the Fine Cut plugin to send it to the printer to cut. Works, but the final size of...

I would love to know more about this too. Been struggling with my laminator for a long time already. Anything over half a meter and it starts developing wrinkles left and right in a downwards angle toward the center. Will try to tighten the lam holder to give more tension. Thanks!

I changed the wiper too, change it often. Indeed gets dirty after wiping but I have cleaned it prior to taking the pictures. Didn't know the difference between black and blue wipers! Machine came with blue one when I bought it second hand. Never even seen black wipers for sale, but would indeed...

Thanks for your help VanderJ and Pitzu! Replaced the complete capping station today, makes no difference. Still lots of missing colors, nozzles and color mixings. I could be wrong but it might look like the cap top doesn't align perfectly with the head. No idea how I can adjust that, if even...

Thanks, so just this part: JV33 Cap Slider Assy 33 - M602088 - Onderdelen And then probably a new cap top and sponge? By the way, reinstalled the dampers today. Inspected the manifold if the pins weren't broken or dirty (after speaking to a tech on the phone). Manifold looks good. Gave it a...

Thanks for your replies guys! Just checked for capping station parts or a complete one. The sliding part alone is €9, without spring. A complete capping station is €50 for a 3rd party product and €150 for OEM. What would you suggest VanderJ?

Just got a quote back from the Mimaki tech. €426 for 8 new Mimaki dampers €87 for a new cap head assy €108 for a new wiper kit -Optional- €621 for a new y-axis motor assy + €160 in transport + €98 per hour of labor. Problem is, I can't seem to solve the print problems I have. Currently have...

I will follow this, looks like I have the same problem with my Mimaki CJV30-100. Also using brand new cheap dampers from China. This is my topic: Mimaki CJV30-100 losing CMYK during print. Good luck!
