  1. Mimaki JV150 distance calibration

    Hi, we're noticing that our JV150 prints 1/4" or so short over longer prints and although this is right at the edge of their accuracy spec we're wondering if there is a feed calibration to help correct this. I can't find a reference to this anywhere (besides a general adjustment for banding)...
  2. Roland VP540 New Heads installed can't seem to get them aligned What is going on?

    I'm looking at your test print and it isn't as bad as you think. -in service mode our machines have at times also printed the combined test pattern, no idea why but maybe it's based on what firmware version you're on. I wouldn't worry about your test print not matching what's in the manual at...
  3. Can a Roland XC540 be converted to Dye Sublimation?

    I'm sure you can. You'll just need to figure out what rip to and how to get the proper ink profiles. The conversion will be pretty easy. We've done it on a few mimakis and mutohs and you just flush the ink with solvent flush then with sublimation flush and then fill with sublimation ink. I'm...
  4. Bearing Block XC540

    I took the heads out and slid the carriage off the left end of the linear rail. I think there are some preloaded spring attachments on the back of the carriage which were tricky to deal with but it's all doable. I don't think any of that is it the service manual. I might have an extra bearing...

  7. Question Vp540 board MainBoard Repair Network problems or just buy new board?

    I might have have a spare used main board I'd sell for $120 shipped. I've got a vp540 that we stripped down to parts before tossing the heavy portions and the main board was fine, it just had some head issues.
  8. Small Label Vinyl for General Products

    We use the gf 203 paired with oracal lam as well. We used to use the gf lam but for $10 more a roll or whatever it is the oracal shrinks less, has better gloss and the matte is easier to apply smoothly. We use gf 6mil film unlaminated for a cheaper decal option and it seems to hold up for...
  9. Suggestions What kind of paper?

    Hi, No one really understand what your are asking. You might want to phrase it more like "I have xxx type of printer and want to know what sort of paper I can print xxx on and then laminate in pouches" You mentioned the 1430 so you can print on pretty much any inkjet paper you want. Thicker...

    Hi, I'm in Hawaii and have a lef20 that we don't use all that often. As long as your shipping USPS it shouldn't be a cost issue shipping to us. I'm mainly interested if this would be a job that repeats in the future but we could help out with say. Send me details, pricing, etc if you're...

    Hi, we've got a two year old JV300 running bulk 2L mimaki sublimation ink and we've got a mystery issue. The printer will not print yellow ink on either head. This sounds like a simple fix but notes on it are below. Cause - we believe that the bulk ink bag was not seated correctly and this...

  13. Need Help mystery - Mimaki JV150 - head stutters, stalls and then shoots across the media

    Thanks for the reply. I was leaning that way as well as there doesn't seem to be any physical reason for the stuttering. We get all of our ink and rushed supplies from you btw, thanks for running such a great site.
  14. Need Help mystery - Mimaki JV150 - head stutters, stalls and then shoots across the media

    Hi, We've got a really weird situation with our 6 month old JV150-160. We have an awesome tech but unfortunately due to our location (Hawaii) it's pretty much phone support only and he's working on it but stumped. We're stumped and in a bind as our second printer (roland XC540 was also having...
  15. Logo Carpet maniacs

    Thanks for posting this. We've had a bunch of these rug/mat samples sitting here forever and never tried them until I saw your post. They are awesome! We're running them on a rotary press and besides the smell they print up beautifully although we need to back each one up with an extra spacer...

  17. Linear Bearing Problem Xc-540

    Linear bearing for Roland VP540 Hi, I'm not sure if it's the same bearing but the linear bearing on the VP540 is the THK SSR-15xw. https://tech.thk.com/en/products/thkdlink.php?id=1107 The print head uses dual 56.9mm wide bearings. I got the bearings from Linear Industries...
