  2. Comments on the Mimaki JFX200

    Usually max speeds are over rated and impractical but on this machine, the quality at the lowest resolution is almost indistinguishable from the medium and high resolution profiles except for saturation. I haven't run a production run on one of these machine but I would say a good operator could...
  3. Comments on the Mimaki JFX200

    I've been trained as a tech on the JFX200 and we also sell them so I do have a little bias but I'll throw in my 2 cents. Mimaki worked directly with the head manufacturer to develop the JFX200 from the ground up. This is an important advantage because it allowed them to develop the ink...
  4. GS6000 - Ink on platen & first pass of vinyl

    Make sure ink is flowing through the cap top properly. If ink is staying the cap top too long it sticks to the head n falls off in the first few passes. If everything in the maintenance are is working properly, I would start with some new dampers. If the tech changed your head and tried to put...
  5. Mimaki CJV30 Low Quality Print Vs. Risk Of Warping ?

    I have a customer who only prints and cuts on 6mil calendered vinyl for a specific project and they never have issues with curling on the edges. I have another customer who only uses 3mil calendared vinyl and has way more issues. None of my customers have issues with the cast vinyls. It seems...

  7. Gerber Edge 2... wireless?

    It's definitely doable but may not be worth the trouble. Check this out: Using an old router as a bridge
  8. mutoh vj 1204

    You basically reset your machine back to factory defaults which means you are now starting from scratch. You will have to re-do all of the alignments and sensor sensitivity adjustments once you get up and running. Here is how to get out of fill-up mode: Turn the machine off, then hold the up...
  9. I need a mimaki jv3 tech ******

    I avoid the JV3s as a tech because they are generally in such bad shape that fixing them usually unveils a problem that wasn't apparent before or something else breaks naturally 2 weeks later and the customer always blames the last tech to work on it even if the new problem has nothing to do...
  10. Bleed Over on one side.

    Did you run the alignments in the Service mode including the mechanical adjustments or just the user adjustments in the regular menu? If you didn't run the mechanical alignments, your electronic ones will be off no matter what.
  11. Have a Cloud File Need saved back to CS6

    That makes sense! I guess I don't have my thinking cap on today.
  12. Have a Cloud File Need saved back to CS6

    I haven't used cloud yet. Does it not have a legacy save option like the older versions did?
  13. UV Outdoor Life

    At the Mimaki JFX200 training I was told that the outdoor durability of their UV inks is ~4 years unlaminated. It all depends on where the sign is located obviously but they seem to be as good or better than solvent inks when it comes to durability.
  14. Error 40 X-Motor

    That "POP' you heard may have been the main board blowing up. It is responsible for sending the voltage to the motor. If the main board can't get the voltage to the motor, it still can tell if the motor is running or not. If the main board doesn't think the motor is running after it sends the...
  15. Error 40 X-Motor

    X 40 is an overload error. The motor is requiring too much voltage to push the media forward. With the machine turned off try to move the grit roller manually. Try to figure out if it is jammed or getting caught up on something. If it moves smoothly, check all of the connections from the motor...
  16. Ink Charging

    Turn the machine off and then back on while holding the UP, Right and Down buttons. Once you the machine boots up scroll down the menu until you see "Check 7: Parameter" and hit enter. Now scroll down until you see "Param2: Update" and hit enter. Then scroll down until you see "Update7: Charge...
  17. Heater / Dryer settings

    The SP 300 only has two heaters and without an Sp540 in front of me I am assuming it also only has two heaters. The middle platen(the one the head runs over) and post platen should be the only ones that heat up. Try cranking the heat up all the way on the print platen and all the way down on the...
  18. Can I load a 100mts roll to Mimaki JV300

    Your material is within the weight spec but the diameter of the roll might be the only problem. What Slopoke is saying is that it may be too wide to roll without hitting the support bar. Measure the diameter of the roll and have your dealer measure between an empty core to the support bar. That...
  19. Anyone know where i can get one of these...?

    I can have them drop shipped directly from Mutoh to you. Give me a call: 303-733-6671
  20. Roland Soljet PRO III XC 540 Magneta Overcast

    Did you use the exact same profile? It looks to me like they are two different profiles.
