Maybe it is only happening in bi-directional printing then? http://www.signs101.com/forums/showthread.php?91846-Mimaki-JV3-160SP-collection-of-PDFs-amp-Tutorials-in-one-place

I've seen those before also but not that bad. It does have to do with the pinch rollers; but it's not because they're dirty. I think mine disappeared after lamination, but those might not.

At the first sign company i worked for we also had an automotive painting company as the other half of the business. They sprayed many of the signs with whatever clear they happened to be spraying that day. FWIW, the signs were printed with eco-solvent ink and still look good today. Most inks...

Isn't there an ARMS calibration test you can run on a graphtec? I think when I had this problem that is what fixed it for me.

That is not true, if it is miss-counting going one direction, it simply "off-centers" the print by that much. It does not only count marks on the strip through the print; but it counts them all the way from the capping station all the way across its travel range every time it moves.

What vinyl/laminate/mask are you using? I have done quite a lot and I don't recall ever running into this. Can you post a picture? Is it something that a torch will take out after installation?

Give BigFishDM a holler; it appears you are new to this type of install, as these two products are NOTHING alike.

Welcome from NKY!

It sounds like our Cyan head may be loose or might need realigned. You might want to begin with going through the new head alignment procedure. There should be a PDF technician manual on this site somewhere.

I know those certifications exist, I was posed this same question by a friend MANY years ago. And since then, until now, I have NEVER heard anyone ever mention it again. I do not think anyone really knows what it entails from a hiring standpoint. It may place you above someone else if you are...

Go to that folder on the CD, "Select All", Copy, go to your windows font folder (usually C:/Windows/fonts), paste. If they're already installed, then it will ask you if you want to replace the ones that are already installed.

Pop those 4 "hinges" off the docking station and see if all the lines are connected from under there to the pump. Sounds like the heads aren't seating correctly on the caps.

That happens here sometimes also when you forget to feed out some material before hitting print. That usually happens when you forget and leave the RIP set to automatically print after ripping. If I feed the material through the curing/heating area before hitting print it doesn't do this...

I am also going to go with a dirty encoder strip or encoder reader. Can you run an encoder test or similar on your machine. I used to have a lot of problems with this on a Roland printer and it resulted in similar prints to what you're showing. I have never seen this on our Epson (yet, knock on...

Check your local craigslist or Ebay, there are usually used Edge machines out there available for less than the price of a replacement head. I have used every version of the Edge, and in my opinion the Edge 2s are the most reliable. The EdgeFX was always ruining vinyls and needing cleaning. All...

I know this website has it available, but I can't recall the name of it.... https://creativemarket.com/fonts/script

We purchased our GFP from Advantage Sign Supply in Indianapolis.

From your description, you are not waiting long enough for the ink to properly cure/outgass before you are laminating the prints. That is what causes the edge curling issues you describe on wraps.

We have the S70670 here, and ever since we completed our first print I'd swear that you "could" laminate it same-day. It seems to be dry right off the dryer (unless you're increasing saturation for backlit signs), we also have the optional dryer on ours; do you know the recommended minimum wait...

I will forward this on to the owner here at Crux RoadBoardz Graphics; we handle that area from here near Cincinnati. - jason
