  1. waste line connector

    The single pipe just drops down the big pipe and was originally just taped in position so it stayed in place. As it is just the drain from the pump it is ok to just insert it as far as possible down the large tube. SC
  2. JV3-160S questions

    Thanks for that Print com. I have read this error can be a whole lot of things from sensors, bad cartridge chips to the machine hibernating because of being off for such a long time. The head height mechanism is missing on this machine! I have the cover but their is no lever inside. How does...
  3. JV3-160S questions

    I picked up my JV3-160S today. I reckon it has been off line a lot longer than the seller said! Still it powers up and came straight out of a working environment. When pressing the head test button it comes up with error 30. I have read on here this could be a few causes but would like...

  5. Mimaki JV3-160S chip by pass

    Is their a way to by pass the chips temporary? I am trying to set up this machine but need it in a fully working state to clean and run test prints. Once this is fully operational I am going to fit a bulk ink system so I no longer need cartridges and will have permanent chips. Thanks SC
  6. New to me JV3 160SP

    OMG I got it wrong!!!! The machine is a JV3 160S not a JV3 160SP I understand this has only 3 printheads! Can this still run just CMYK rather than CMYKlclm? Does anyone have information and manuals on this one?!!! Sorry for the mess up, good job this was very cheap. SC
  7. New to me JV3 160SP

    Thanks for the advice Mike but purchasing a set of cleaning cartridges is not cheap and would cost me over a thousand dollars in the UK. I agree replacing the cheap parts such as dampers/ribboncables/wiperblade and even cap tops is the way to go. But their must be a way of pulling cleaning fluid...
  8. New to me JV3 160SP

    I am on with purchasing a JV3 160SP. It has been left unused for 3 months and the owner reckons only the CMY is printing the black is empty and the lc and lm are not working. This was used in a company running banners through for a national fitness chain. The guy who was supposedly operating...

  15. What's the best rip software to use for wide format printing?

    Using Wasatch 6.2 at the moment but we have always had issues were sometimes it will not create the contour cut file properly. I have been in touch with Wasatch and as per usual they blame the hardware and software it runs on. Strange as when you reprocess the file it works fine! Wasatch just...
  16. Looking for alternative bus wrap film.

    I may as well be the first to answer on this one. I reckon you are already using the correct material for the job especially with the rivets and conditions this is being used in. As I have found, if you find a material that is easier to remove usually means it does adhere that well in the first...

    Well it is very rare for a second user Valuejet to come up for sale in the UK and when they do they are prohibitivley overpriced. At the moment buying a new one is out of the question as funds are very low especially after getting my valuejet back running. The new Valuejet 1624 runs different...
