Thanks Mike, looks like I'll be contacting the technician!

Hi, Today I finally replaced the print head cap on my JV33 and printed a job after months of inaction... after ten minutes of printing the machine beeped 3 times, display screen was blank, but power light still on... the raster link status displayed a message stating the print job had been...

All 8 cartridges need to be installed with sufficient ink in each... even though its 2 cartridges per colour.

Replaced the empty yellow ink cartridge but that didn't solve the problem; ink filling still doesn't start automatically. Anyone know if all 8 cartridges need to have ink in them for the ink fill to start? I currently have 2 empty ones (M & K), setup is 4 colour.

Hi, I have recently bought a Mimaki JV33 with the aim of printing short runs of stickers and labels. I use ES3 inks and a roll of Ritrama RiJet vinyl which was supplied with the printer, and use an ES3 GPVC profile from Mimaki. I am quite happy with the print quality however areas of single...
