  1. Mimaki Grainy Prints

    I found that happened on certain medias... try playing with temperature and the number of passes, if I recall right we saw that decrease at 32 pass and a high temperature.
  2. Just got the UCJV300-160 Need help with Registration Marks

    Where are your pinch rollers positioned? The mark detection function can get a bit wonky if the marks are outside of the rollers.
  3. Can you increase the rasterlink job queue size?

    Make use of the Backup/Restore feature if you want to keep the exact settings of a job.
  4. Cutting Problem Mimaki CJV30-100

    Is it a full registration skew, maybe? My best guess is also offset - besides the blade offset values, there are also TP offset values that can affect registration...
  5. Need Help Need Help with Mimaki CG 130fx sticker cutting.

    That looks like it should be correct, yes! Have you tried it out?
  6. Need Help Need Help with Mimaki CG 130fx sticker cutting.

    When you are sending the plotting data from Finecut 8 you should be able to select which registration marks it looks for - it sounds like right now it's just set to look for one. Reference the manual (https://mimaki.com/archives/034/201909/D201812-30_CG-FXII_PlusOperationManual_e.pdf) starting...
  7. Cutting Problem Mimaki CJV30-100

    I think the commenter above has the right idea - looks like offset issue. What did your test cut squares look like?
  8. Mimaki take up roll never shuts off

    You should be able to shut it off as you need, though many functions of the printer will cause it to reactivate - adjusting feed position, sending a new job, mounting a new roll, etc.
  9. Mimaki print cut or print only

    We run two CJV150 machines and a SRIII plotter. It's a great option to have for jobs that don't need lamination, but ultimately I do find it more productive to just have the CJVs printing and then the plotter handling almost all of our cutting - print/cut only for specific jobs where it's been...
  10. White ink on clear contour cut decals

    I've got a UV with white ink too. If a flat/smooth white is what you're after (UV tends to create a raised, more tactile print), I also have access to a Gerber which uses resin foils, and has a super thin abrasion guard laminate option. PM if you're interested!
  11. White not opaque enough CJV 150

    Set your color replacement to 100% for BOTH whites, not just one. We use this to get a nice, heavy coverage of white on our prints.
  12. Help, please - Mimaki CG-130 FX - How to read a print file for Cutting from RasterLink6 to FineCut8

    What I do is set up a 'tile' (about a letter sized sheet) with my decals imposed on that. Artwork on one layer, CutContour on another. Make a 1% transparency object somewhere on the tile so that you can save your EPS with the option 'Convert All Strokes to Outlines' disabled (on the EPS popup...
  13. Gerber Edge FX Casette Error Help

    If the cartridge is lowering, whirring, and not grabbing, I've found it helps to 'tug' the cartridge towards the clip on the user side.' Not sure if that addresses your issue, but it's been a nifty trick that's helped me out.
