  1. HP L26500 Blurring

    good follow-up on your own thread! :toasting: i run a 26500 and am curious... did this alignment issue just simply pop-up or did something else cause it? i've been printing care-free since install of the printer, but am always on guard to prepare for any issues that could arise.
  2. JV33 uneven colors

    same results in unidirectional? how's your test print look? what media you using? do you have a profile for it? highest pass, unidirectional, and a head setting of 32/34 is my standard for fields of solid fill. granted, i run a jv3160 but it's not that different.
  3. Gas Station brand change

    Been doing these for a pair of gas chains for quite a while now. National graphics company produces all their graphics and sends us 3M IJ180 vinyl. I work a LOT with Arlon 6000xrp and would say this would be just as good, if not $$$better. For canopies, rock a scissor lift and you'll fly...

    bet you had some fuzz in your encoder sensor. simply flipping a dirty encoder strip won't just fix it.
  5. JV3 Printing black streaks

    yes. assuming it still works and you can clean it properly without damaging electrical components. make sure you note the Head I.D.#, the labels aren't solvent-proof and have been known to wipe clean with fingers full of cleaning solution. also, here's a collection of JV3 documents that you...

    overlam is really just vinyl... should stick fine. did you also consider clear dry erase paint?
  8. Color Management on Mimaki Printers

    we use Onyx color management on our JV3 160sp, and an xRite eyeONe spectro. was my first time ever building my own profiles, and it was almost mindless. Soooo easy.
  9. having trouble printing in 4 pass bi

    ink dropout occurs when the siphon effect that feeds the printhead is interrupted and the printer has no ability to tell if it's actually laying down ink so it just keeps printing assuming that it is firing ink when its supposed to. caused by, but not limited to: -empty ink cartridge still...
  10. Help! Printing to Mimaki JV3-160SP and RIP questions

    pretty certain you need RIP software to operate this machine. if we could print direct from photoshop/illustrator, then there wouldn't be a market for $1000 software. rasterlink is your best bet, if you don't want to spend much.
  11. Best vinyl for decals?

    anything your supplier carries that's more than 2mil +1 this. 3164 is 4mil and quite inexpensive, much more-so by comparison to vehicle wrap vinyls.
  12. Replacing signs mounted with anti-theft bolts

    hole-saw, carve that pita out and slap a new sign over the holes.
  13. Identify Installation Hardware

    does the "replacement" need to be so beefy? depending on what you're mounting, it doesn't look anything different than what you can get out of a toggle-bolt/beam-clamp.

    New wiring and a new section of glass? maybe post before/during/after pics? I don't understand what you did here. I love neon, but this thread is a tease.
