Yikes! What were the numbers on the Service Call Error? How does your nozzle test look? Also, when you turn it off for an error, you should turn it off in back as well as in front. I recommend that you unplug for about 5 minutes as well to make sure that all of the power has drained out of...

I forget where the break even point is on this, but I think you need to be running 10,000 SF per month for this to pay off the higher cost of the printer.

Great Idea! Some of us do it Gino. It makes for a better customer experience the less we have to tinker with the machine when we bring it in and it gives us more time for training if we don't have to assemble it and ink it up. For the most part they work out of the box, but we get a chance to...

Sorry Kelsey, I just noticed the model is in the title. As hummboxx said, it could be a few things. If this is new, get with the dealer and have them make it right. If this is used, I would start with the regular maintenance - cleaning the head and cap top, replace the maintenance station.

The machine has been announced, but not yet shipping. So I haven't been able to get hands on. What I share below is just what I've been told. Material printed on needs to be at least 50% cotton. Small footprint: 15.7” (W) x 29.9” (D). 5 minutes to produce a cured product. It ships via...

We really need more info to be of any help. What printer is it? What is the history - new/ used? how long has it been idle? repairs done to the printer? What inks? - Lot's of missing info here.

If your blade holder is 5 years old, it could be worn out, or like pjfmeister said, debris inside it or a chipped blade.

The classified section is for shops looking to unload equipment that they no longer use. If you're in the business of selling used equipment though, you'll have to get a merchant member subscription. It's a cost of doing business. The owners of this and other sites have expenses to cover and...

I just PM'd you.

I'd start with a new blade holder then. Also, realize that this is an old plotter as plotters go. There may be other parts that are wearing out.

Does your carriage wobble? Also, how old is the blade holder? Those two things are what I see most. Good Luck

Get the Gerber USB to Parallel cable. Anytime I have a customer getting com errors to their Edge, we change them to this cable and problems go away. Good Luck

Is your software overriding the plotter settings?

Vander - Normally I'm agreeing with you, but since I don't sell, I only service, I googled a CJV150-130 54" printer/cutter and found it for sale for $18,995 (www.hhsignsupply.com) and a SG-540 printer/cutter for $14,995 (www.hansensupply.com). Not knowing the Mimaki line, I'm sure there may be...

VG's come with a take up, SG's - the budget model doesn't. I'm not sure which one you're comparing price with.

Make sure that you have an EPS margin (on the File Format Tab) set to something over 0 in the queue defaults. This will solve the problem. Good luck

New Blades, Cutting Strip and Blade holder will fix most cutting issues. Also make sure that your cut controls are set correctly.

Also make sure it is clean. Sometimes dried ink can gunk it up.

There really needs to be more info before anyone can help. What's the history on the printer recently - work done to it, inks used, maintenance performed, picture of the nozzle test, etc. The way you phrased the initial post, ewded was absolutely right.
