  1. Need Help when printing gray them the next print is gray-red

    The nozzle check looks like it's missing some colors. Other than profile/color issues, looks like you might have an ink flow issue.
  2. write port error

    If I remember correctly, these boards won't accept higher capacity RAM but I don't think that's the issue anyway. Write port errors are always network issues. Since it didn't work over cross over, I would guess the network chip on the main board is probably failing.
  3. Need Help Laminate or No Laminate on See Thru Window Perf?

    They probably used non-optically clear laminate. If you laminate with optically clear lam, you can see through perfectly. Also, without lam, water can build up in the little holes which causes visibility issues as well. I would never do perf on a car without lam but anything else is optional.
  4. New Guy Extreme Newbie - Questions on Mimaki JV3-160sp

    What you're looking for is called, "Drop Position Adjustment" or something along those lines. It's going to be in the Setup menu. It prints 8 patterns of 2 lines. You input the number of the line where the 2 lines overlap perfectly for each pattern.
  5. Need help with Mimaki jv33-130 software/setup

    Yeah it's crazy that Mimaki put so many bad CDs out. Make sure to uninstall any other versions before installing the newest one. Good luck!
  6. Need help with Mimaki jv33-130 software/setup

    I'm willing to bet you are a reasonable person and installed the software from the CD that came with the machine. The problem is that the CD version doesn't work! You need to download the latest version from Mimaki and install it that way. Here's the link to the download page.
  7. Question Color profiling and ink useage

    It all depends on what colors you are printing in your files essentially. If your biggest customer has a red logo, you will probably go through magenta faster etc. In my years of selling ink I would say a typical shop uses magenta and yellow the most, cyan second and black last. YMMV of course.
  8. Bizarre Substrates

    I have a customer who prints on hockey pucks as promotional items for the local team.
  9. Name change

    OK yeah admin will get to it. He's not on full time so it takes a little time.
  10. Name change

    You can change your name in your profile but it only allows you to do it once. Does it show up as an option for you?
  11. Need Help Mutoh 1624 fisheye

    Yeah it all depends on how long it sat on their shelf before it got to you.
  12. Mutoh XpertJet 1641SR VS VJ1624

    Good advice from your dealer. There is nothing wrong with the new machine but I would describe it as a 1624X Plus rather than a new model. It uses the same head and everything. They just added some useful features.
  13. Question Epson GS6000 printhead be installed in Mutoh 1624

    Basically if you have used a Mutoh, Mimaki, or Roland solvent printer in the last 25 years, it's all Epson heads. In the last 5 or so years Ricoh and Panasonic have entered the game for these brands as well. There have been times where Epson would lock certain heads for certain machines and it's...
  14. Need Help Mutoh 1624 fisheye

    Fisheyes are almost always either contaminated material (dust, finger prints, etc.) or old/defective vinyl. That's what this looks like to me. Does it happen on any other materials? Heat could very well help as well as it's needed for the ink to bite into the vinyl properly.
  15. Can I use a separate plotter with the Roland sg2?

    You can print and cut to pretty much any make or model as long as you can print the required registration marks. If you get a Roland cutter, that will make much easier but it is doable with other brands. If you are using Versaworks and two Roland machines it should pretty much be seamless though.
  16. New Guy Responding to your online reviews - second in a series

    Hey technically when I'm on here I'm working! Still couldn't agree more though!
  17. Need Help VJ1324XS parts

    Check out our site. We offer parts, inks, and free tech support. Solventinkjet.com
  18. Life expectancy of FC8600?

    If they are anything like the FC7000 machines in build quality, I have seen them last 10+ years with good care. Of course it depends highly on how much you use it.
  19. Need Help PINCHROLL ERROR INVALID RIGHT POS

    That's the pinch roller sensor and it's installed on the back of the cut carriage. It measures the position of the rollers which is why you are getting that error. I'd contact Denco or Midwest for the part.
  20. Anyone have a Mimaki UJF6042MK2 Service Manual to Share?

    We ended up getting the proper manual from a signs101 member. The laser needed to be readjusted.
