  4. media sensor!!! where is it and how do I clean it!!!

    %$%& wtf I start jobs and I indicate I want the job to start 1.5" up and it starts 3" up and chops the top off. I can only figure that the media sensor cant detect the edges of the material. I just loaded a 30" piece of vinyl and it says I have 31.5" thats just crazy!!!

  6. anyone know roughly what ink costs per sq. ft.?

    Mimaki jv3 -130 spII oem cartridges. Anybody hazard a guess generally what it costs to run ink per sq ft at 720 x 720. Just a ballpark idea? .20? .45? I know some rips tell you how much is being used, but mine does not.
  7. First Printer option?

    The Edge LE is what we use, but we also have a Mimaki jv3. I still use the Edge from time to time but you cant beat the speed and quality of an inkjet. The Edge is great if you need to print white. I was never thrilled with its 4 colour ability and the cost associated with it. You should...
  8. Thermal vs Inkjet

    Based on that the BS will work fine for you. There is a learning curve like anything else, but once you get it down pat, you can laminate effortlessly. I may plunge for another laminator one day (a good one this time) but the BS seems to work for me and I just plan out my jobs so that I can...

  11. Mimaki jv3 130 spII runs out of ink but no low warning!!!

    well thats what I am saying...my machine failed to beep on both the yellow cartridges on the same day within 1 hour of each running out. It did beep to tell me about the magenta which until today finally ran out.
  12. started taking tai chi lessons

    I have always enjoyed watching people doing Tai Chi and now have a neighbour in our units who offers the training. I signed up and will go twice a week for a year. Lesson 1 was interesting and I can see that this will definately help my stress issues. I can also say that for the last 3...
  13. Mimaki jv3 130 spII runs out of ink but no low warning!!!

    Once the warning is issued it stays on the readout until the cartridge needs replacing. In fact the wiping cycle stops until a new cartridge is installed and the printer will always go out of remote and to local after each print job I noticed that both yellow cartridges were on the 1 setting...
  14. Mimaki jv3 130 spII runs out of ink but no low warning!!!

    no, there is no problem that I ran out of ink, I am just saying that the printer failed twice to forewarn me that it was low.
  15. Mimaki jv3 130 spII runs out of ink but no low warning!!!

    I had this happen last week and thought maybe I was not really paying attention until today. I am printing wallpaper and it has a lot of yellow in it. I knew both my yellows were at 1 since last week so it came as no surprise that I would need 2 cartridges. I set the machine up and then go...

  19. Any idea of what this vinyl is?

    If it is a clear or foggy finish it may be some of those 3M high end frosted vinyls that designers and architects spec. Here check out this link. These guys are up here in Canada and not to far from you. I bet they know what it is http://conveniencegroup.com/Home/default.aspx?DealerGroupId=7
