He can for $10!

$1500 for a domain, rough. Jackasslabels.com is available though, for regular price of $10. Or whatever your registrar charges.

So, I am getting good at finding and fixing up Mimaki JFX's for dirt cheap. Sold a couple of them and made a good chunk of them. Are they worth running for printing though? We can run them dirt cheap (most we've ever paid for a JFX200 was $8K, and we do all repairs, mods and maintenance...

Thankfully they have to make an OS that works in big restrictive enterprises, so most elements can be ripped out as needed. Group policies are also a huge help.

We strip out lots of invasive stuff on our machines, so just adding that stuff to a powershell script or registry file is super easy when doing a fresh install, or an update changes settings. Stuff runs better when it's not bogged down with crap like advertising or junk features.

Just uninstalled it through powershell. Oh well, I hear 2025 will be the year of the linux desktop.

This post is from January 2018.

I love the extra business they bring me, but we also like dealing with small batch customers. Maybe we're just stupid, but I enjoy it. As for free publicity, the MyPillow guy was swimming in that. Last I checked they were auctioning off all their fixtures for hilariously low prices, even by...

Note that the memory board is for the parameters of the head it came with. Good to adjust the rank code when installing the new head to its code.

Can wipe the contacts clean with a swab and some solvent ink cleaner if you avoid the stuff plastic tab. Don't want that coming unglued. Also look for bent or mangled pins.

Nice clean lines like that indicate it's firing at weird times. Double check cables to see if they are well seated in their connectors and there's no trace of ink at the electrical contacts. Had an Epson P5000 that had what I thought was a negligible droplet of ink on one of the head cables...

If you have a colorimeter, that can be a huge help. If MAPS in auto is having issues, can try selecting a pattern, or disabling it. For me, lots of times I have issues with Adobe formats and I have to convert them to more basic raster types (Tiff, JPG, etc) and things improve massively. Not...

What model of printer is it?

Don't buy a JFX500, those are hard to move and setup. I almost regretted buying that.

Might want to enable MAPS.

Yeah, been looking at the data stream from the serial/usb converter. Just don't have a code list for things like triggering flexcut, sheetcut and tangential specific commands. Can't find a lookup anywhere.

Running into similar stuff but using an old original S series. Works great with the exception of some home commands and the like. Email the guys at FutureSoft (VinylMaster's authors) and they tend to get drivers up pretty quickly. Love the cutter, hating the software. Been looking, but is there...

Might need to swap processing software for running the cutter, just running Vinylmaster. Dirt cheap and does most of what I need (and is stupid simple to use) but lacks some of the 'fancier' features.

Yeah, I can stop it by unclamping the media, but it's less than ideal having to watch the thing like a hawk.

Can also adjust the capping station height on these pretty easily, since the station is motorized. Covered in the service manual, if you have access to one. Checked our JFX200s (EX and older non-EX) and both chains are pretty snug. The links are designed to snap apart to access the stuff inside...
