  1. Why do people use "Brand names" instead of the actual product name?

    I don't think of coroplast as a brand and really think of it as a shortened version of corrugated plastic.
  2. JV3 RIP Software

    What do you mean by that? Do you have multiple jobs in one file? Let me know.
  3. Changing dampers

    I usually hook a syringe filled with cleaning solution to one end of the tube and then have another syringe hooked up to the other end. I will then push with the cleaning solution syringe and pull with the other one. Then I work it back and forth for a while until it starts to budge. Once you...
  4. Changing dampers

    Un-dock the head and do the same test. If it does the same thing, your tubes are clogged. If it pulls air, the problem is going to be deeper in the machine such as a bad valve at the cartridge or even possible head clog or damage.
  5. Signs In Video Games 1 - LA Noire

    I think you answered your own question! Subtract kids from the equation and boom, time appears out of nowhere.
  6. Changing dampers

    If you can draw ink in with a syringe but not into the head it might be the cap top or pump. Close off one of the waste tubes and then hook a syringe up to the other waste tube. Pull while the head is docked. You should feel a lot of resistance and if you let the syringe go, it should pop back...
  7. CentraPrinthead

    Indonesia based = scam almost 100% of the time. Do a search on the forums and you will see a lot of people have been burned by these types of sites. There are legitimate sites out there but the Indonesian sites are almost always scam sites.
  8. Changing dampers

    It depends on your situation. Did you change all the dampers at the same time and none of them will fill? If so, you probably have a bad cap top or pump. If you changed 1 damper and it doesn't fill, it could be a bad cap top still especially if it's the left most magenta damper. It's a common...
  9. Need Help Mimaki Cjv30-130 error code, and a little help

    It's possible but you can usually clean it with alcohol. I would take a good look at it for sure and clean as necessary.
  10. Need Help Mimaki Cjv30-130 error code, and a little help

    The older the machine is the more ink builds up around the head which can cause that. Also if someone was working on the dampers and dripped ink there that would be my guess. It definitely needs to be replaced as that is causing your original issue for sure. Also, you can call and talk to...
  11. Versacamm SP 300V problem changing ink

    Start by changing your dampers especially if they are older than a year old. The dampers and the ink cartridge work together to keep the proper pressure in the system. When the damper starts to fail and you take the cartridge out, it can cause ink to fall out of the head into the cap top which...
  12. GS6000 Head wash failing

    You have to start with the proper amount of cleaning solution for it to work properly. If you run out it just restarts which is annoying for sure. I don't know how to do it on that machine but most machines I work on have a parameter you can change that will trick the machine into thinking it's...
  13. Printing eco solvent Wall mural in my son's bedroom. Need Advice

    Getting the file is a whole other story for sure.
  14. Printing eco solvent Wall mural in my son's bedroom. Need Advice

    Not for personal use. Only if you resell it.
  15. Print and cut

    Printing on your flat bed and cutting on a cutter will work but the workflow is going to be clunky. If you only do small stuff I would look for a used 30" printer/cutter for cheap and it will be much faster and efficient.
  16. Printing eco solvent Wall mural in my son's bedroom. Need Advice

    I have a customer who makes products exclusively for children and wanted to get certified by some trade group to be safe for children. They had all kinds of materials sent to the lab and found out that they couldn't use calendared vinyl but the inks were ok once dry. So it's actually the vinyl...
  17. ERROR 86 head ovp

    Yeah you might have had a power surge or something like that because it basically means the circuit that protects the head from over voltages has blown which is rare because usually the fuse pops first.
  18. ERROR 86 head ovp

    If the cable is new and the error still pops up, the head is dead. Basically the head has failed electronically. If the printer is about a year old you may need a warranty call.
  19. Are sign professionals just giving up?

    The way I see it, if they designed it and you just produced it, they got exactly what they wanted. I just wouldn't put my name on it. Now if they ask you to do the design, then you have more of a professional responsibility to make it look good.
