  3. Question CNC software

    "The free Start-Up/ Enthusiast licenses allow you to access Fusion 360 with a yearly subscription after the trial period has ended. You can use this license if you are a small business making less than $100,000 per year (or equivalent), or if you're a hobbyist using Fusion 360 for non-commercial...

    For casual use or hobbists vectric aspire is good Vectric Ltd - Passionate About CNC you can learn it in 20 minutes but it has it's limitations. A full featured cad software like FUSION 360 takes weeks to learn but it's actually free and you can find ton's of tutorials on youtube. It's like...
  5. Need Help dx5 nozzle check

    Nozzle deflection is a result of many head strikes, I don't think these printheads will ever print better than this, probably the seller already did some serious cleanings before you saw it. On the other hand this test prints are not that bad, you can use it for a few more years. If you need...
  6. RIP for AI

    You should at least at home have a pirated illustrator to be able to convert artworks. It's not very professional rejecting a client with AI file extension.
  7. First time buyer questions - looking at Mimaki JV150-160

    Just stop calculating the ink and waste costs and focus on purchasing the right equipment :) . When receiving your first $1000 job ink waste will not be important. What's important the Mimamki already takes care - reliability and consistent quality. You need the wasted ink to have a printer more...
  8. First time buyer questions - looking at Mimaki JV150-160

    First of all you don't have to clean it every day, once a week is perfect. On the other hand I buy 200 swabs on ebay for $20
  9. First time buyer questions - looking at Mimaki JV150-160

    Unfortunately we don't have that brand available in Europe. My test were made on plain uncoated canvas.
  10. First time buyer questions - looking at Mimaki JV150-160

    12cc (12ml) in total - that's about a tablespoon worth of liquid (ink+cleaning fluid). The hourly drops are just nothing it'd take years to consume a set of ink. Can you post some comparing pictures with the 3 sample when you receive them? I'm really curious. When I wanted to buy a printer...
  11. Colors Blah??

    He's new guys, the first thing to check is Bidirection alignment. Print it in UNIDIRECTION if it looks good you can finish the job and spend some time later figuring out bidirectional settings for correct head alignment.
  12. First time buyer questions - looking at Mimaki JV150-160

    Why not buy a CJV150 it has a built in cutter. Separate cutter makes sense if you buy multiple machines in my opinion. 2. none daily, 1x wipe in two weeks (but even then it seems unnecessary as everything is pretty clean). - it 'refreshes' itself as Vander said hourly using 1 drop of ink and...
  13. Mimaki JV33 - 160 CM Yellow is not printed

    Don't know the solution, but you should pump some cleaning fluid in the dumper and do a few cleaning cycles so it'll not dry out. If it dries out you can throw the head in the bin.
  14. Any Eco Solvent wallpaper like HP PVC Free?

    Eco solvent prints only to PVC, Polyester and such, nothing organic like paper or natural fibers. I use glossy vinyl + matte lam and have a very nice paper-like matte finish with practically indestructible surface. Tried oracals thin and thick wall vinyl but while it's pretty scratch resistant...
  15. Be an Angel and help me figure out this font.

    So you want me to die? I prefer not to be an angel just yet. Anyway this is a custom design, you can tell this by looking the letters that are doubled: the two t-s are not the same, nor are the e-s.
  16. SG-300 double cutting everything.

    Try setting a thinner line like 0.0001 inch, or set 0.00001 that'll display 0 inch
  17. Need Help weird cut on Mimaki cjv 150-130

    Okay, just ask stupid questions instead of setting up your machine like I said. Whatever.
  18. Material separating from backing while printing

    Wow, 44 is just too much. I print 30-30-50 on Mimaki, I know it sounds and feels cold, but it's just enough.
  19. Bright Orange mimaki with orange set up

    Boi, if there are 100 visible colors in real life then rgb contains 70 and cmyk contains 40 while black and white printer contains 5. Mimakis orange helps to get smoother skin tone gradients but it'll not produce brighter oranges. Don't fall for the marketing. Let me guess, you're looking for...
  20. Need Help BEST Software or add on to VECTORIZE LOGO

    Come'on guys why are you so selfish, let him know the software we all use, it has a button named 'MAGIC' that does the job quick and easy. It also does everything else you need like resampling poor quality goole photo to 1200 dpi wall cover size, oh and it also makes your 54 inch printer print 60".
