  1. Suggestions Aftermarket Ink for UJF3042HG and CJV30-130

    I’ve been running this ink for a year without issues and my printer also sits sometimes for a week or two at a time. https://digitalsigntech.net/Ink-cartridges/mimaki-ink-cartridges/mimaki-cjv30-ink-cartridges/mimaki-SS2-solvent-ink-cartridge.html#product-details-tab-reviews I was originally...
  2. Cjv150 head strike

    Had a head strike today. Now I’m missing a good bunch of the black nozzles. I’ve done a few soaks and cleans not much improvement. Decided to manually pull ink through with a syringe but I’m not getting any resistance. The tubes look fine but I must have an air leak somewhere as I’m only pulling...
  3. CJV150-160 Contour cut problem

    Not the issue. Just did some more contour cuts today and everyone was tossed because it cuts into the print on the bottom side and into the white media on the top side. Not sure what else I can test or adjust.
  4. CJV150-160 Contour cut problem

    So I ran this function and it didn’t print boxes instead it printed two registration marks and measured the distance between them. Anyway, I’m still having issues with the feed direction being off on cuts especially on large length runs. The last few cuts are usually the furthest out. I’ve also...
  5. CJV150-160 Contour cut problem

    So I ended up downloading rasterlink 6plus for the trial period. Ran the print and cut adjustment test where it prints the 2 rows of pink squares that are numbered and cuts each one. The most accurate row was 0 for both which was what the printer was set to in the beginning. My problem must be...
  6. CJV150-160 Contour cut problem

    printer reads the marks. I’ve compared the mark sizes in Flexi to the settings on the printer and they match. Should I just buy a copy of rasterlink to solve this potential adjustment issue easier. eBay has some activation keys for about $300 for raster6plus. An afternoon of playing with the tc...
  7. CJV150-160 Contour cut problem

    I I have not as I don’t have a copy of rasterlink only Flexi. I bought this printer used and the PC settings are currently the ones set up with the previous owner that were written on a sticky note and attached to the printer. What exactly is the tc adjust ? I’ve seen it in the menu but don’t...
  8. CJV150-160 Contour cut problem

    For the purpose of testing these were actually cut right after printing. They weren’t removed to laminate, so the roll never left the printer. The problem seems to be on the x axis? (feed) as the contour is tight on the bottom edge and wide at the top. I know rasterlink has a print and cut...
  9. CJV150-160 Contour cut problem

    I'm having an issue where my contour cuts are not accurate. I'm using flexi19, I add a contour cut line, rip and print with mimaki type 1 registration marks. The printer prints fine, reads the registration marks without issue and begins a cut. But the accuracy of that cut seems to get worse as...
  10. Error 651 Replace NCU

    New to me printer. Was reading a bit about auto nozzle recovery. Went to turn that option on and immediately got an error 651. Replace nozzle check unit. Are there any causes that trigger this error other than the NCU? Only fix is to replace? Where exactly is it located and how much are these...
  11. Flexi19 Filling White text to Black

    Yes I'm running windows through a virtual machine on my Mac. I'll look at the factory setting thing. I've only been using Flexi for the last month and this has been an issue since the beginning. My only work around so far is to manually refill the text back to white. Or take the file direct into...
  12. Flexi19 Filling White text to Black

    If I open Flexi and go File-Open-Test.pdf this is what I get.
  13. Flexi19 Filling White text to Black

    Usually always .pdf. Heres a file I just made with one "test" in black and one in white. Once opened in Flexi both go black.
  14. Flexi19 Filling White text to Black

    I have an issue with Flexi19. Every time I open a previously designed file from photoshop or illustrator, any text that was created with a white fill is turned black in Flexi. Default fill is set to no fill, I've looked around and can't seem to find any other settings that would cause this. It...
