Hi, Is anyone using a Mimaki CG-FX II cutter together with Onyx Cutserver? I've noticed that cutting is not so precise, compared to cutting from Mimaki Finecut or Caldera. The cut path is shifted a little in the horizontal direction. Onyx support tells me to calibrate the cutter, but if it's...

Hi, I didn't know you could use a Rasterlink 5 serial number with Rasterlink 6. Thanks for the tip. I always generate a new sn from their special site. Rasterlink 6 Plus also uses the same number, and is still being updated. The regular RL 6 isn't.

Thanks already for the comments. The next big signage tradeshow will be the one to look out for.

Hi, If HP or another brand were to release a new latex roll-to-roll printer, what improvements would you want to see in that model compared to the current HP line up? Would you switch from HP to another brand for these reasons? Regards, Y.

Hi, send me a PM and I'll send you some profiles for paper. What ink set is your printer equipped with? 2xCMYK, CMYK Lc Lm Lk O, ...

Hi, I've created a profile for Siser Colorprint PU for the 80600. Send me a PM and I'll send you the profile.

Does the problem start right away, or only after a few inches?

Hi, for Rasterlink, the only way to create profiles is with Mimaki Profilemaster. You can download a copy and play with it for 30 days.

I can't check right now, but I believe all the 3042 and 6042 default printing modes are uni-directional.

Hello, how was this issue solved? We're experiencing the same kind of light-dark banding in waves on three JV150's.

Hi, was this issue solved?

The UJF-3042 MkII, 6042 and JFX200 range are good printers. We sell them in my country, and print quality is very good. You can get excellent results on all of them. For smaller jobs, the 3042 and 6042, will be a tad sharper than the JFX200. Of course two 3042 still won't be able to print a...

Hi, if you build your own profiles, you COULD save ink. There are some parameters in the profile building process that you need to fully understand, and what their effect is on color gamut, image quality and the effect they have on each other. The first ink limits (individual CMYK ink...

Hello, I hope your banding issue was solved. If it was, what was the solution? We're experiencing the same kind of banding too.

Hi, it’s best to set a fixed IP address on your printer.

You can perform a fill-up of the ink. It could be just air inside the tube.

You could look for a file of an abstract painting with bright colors. Then in Photoshop assign Adobe RGB, eciRGBv2 or even Prophoto RGB. This will increment the saturation of the colors. Save the file with the new embedded ICC profile and print it. Make sure your rip uses embedded ICC profiles.

Yes it is. I do tech support for both Mimaki and Epson at a dealer in Europe. Mimaki’s got some great products, like their flatbed UV’s. The UCJV is a fine choice if you need a roll to roll UV for the opacity of the white, for the scratch resistance of the ink, the possibility to print in up to...

If your greys are greenish, try a much more aggressive GCR. Instead of a black start at 30% and medium GCR, go for a black start at 0% and Max K. It’s a setting in the last phase of any profile creation. Drawback: from close your prints can look grainy. On the positive side: ink usage can be up...

If you use Mimaki’s Rasterlink, the only way you can create profiles is with Mimaki Profilemaster. I recommend to contact your Mimaki dealer to make some profiles for you. If they have the same machines in their demo room (with the same ink configuration), they can also make the profiles and...
