Maybe some brushed aluminum decal cut to a nice shape? but before applying i'd fix the scratches with drywall mud.

Black is gone, magenta is not working perfectly, maybe if you don't want to go below everyone on the market by selling 3 euro/sqm banners you could afford a new printhead every 6-8 years.

Allik is right, it gives a bit of resistance when the media is pulled to stop if from unwinding. Without it your media may be fed unevenly.

Sherlock Holmes is that you?

I do mainly car and laptop decals/stickers and use the 42" cutter only when the 24" is too small, but honestly I never had to cut anything bigger that 42". Remember 42" is the short side so you can do frosted window decal easily with 42". On the other hand I prefer to cut long things (with...

I have a 24" one and a 42" one I use them 80%-20% never had a 'wish i had a bigger one' moment.

No, the choke valve is a part of the choke assembly, don't know where actually its located before OR after the pump, but it's purpose is to stop ink to freely flow out on the nozzles.

Just repeat the process used with the black ink and update the profile and use CY instead of CMYK you should be fine.

Not an expert but it seems like your choke valve is faulty. You cannot repair it yourself, you need a tech to verify and exchange it.

Are your heaters actually working - I mean if you put your hands on the heater it is on? Set the density a bit higher, try a different profile. Make sure the media is on room temperature for 48h before printing, make sure the room is clean and aired - believe it or not even perfume or deodorant...

Try it out with other cutting softwares, I use vinylmastercut they have free trial. If that works try uninstalling (and restart computer) and reinstalling versaworks. If problem is still unsolved try an earlier versaworks version. If still not resolved install versaworks to another computer and...

Do NOT buy multiple piece cutting bars, they are toys. I don't know the exact model you're looking for, but what i see on the image is a rotary trimmer and they are not suited to cut thick material. Similar is ARC from foster keencut Advanced Rotary Cutter (ARC) but you need something stronger...

Why not buy a solvent machine, I print 3.66 point text all the time and with naked eye it's just PERFECT

Maybe it needs a new printhead? Latex heads can push through ~4 litres of ink.

As a newcomer in the printing field I'd like to save 30% on the machine in the first place. I'd like to have low printing cost in the first years and pay $2500 for a PH when the machine is 8-10 years old and I made some profit. I'd also like to have a print&cut machine to save space and money.

Hi Vader, Do you happen to know how to access service mode on mimaki cjv150 ?

There are official Roland, Mimaki, Mutoh -you name it - dealers in Mexico and even THEY try to avoid dealing with faulty printers if you're not insistent enough. But you buy an expensive machine from china (first mistake) and pay by bank transfer (secon mistake). Dude. I mean DUDE !!?? Just...

I wish i knew these before getting my printer: Latex pros Latex is better for wallpaper stuff as it can print direct to real PAPER, eco-solvent prints only to coated media. Cost of HP Latex / sqft is 25c for ink and 15-20c for printhead+electricity+cleaning solution so about 40c/sqft in total...

+.15 sqft for PH +0.10 for cleaning stuff and electricty, so make that 0.50/sqft :)

Don't fall for the ink estimator, it's way off - you need to double that to get the actual ink consumed just like the print time estimator - you need to double that too.
