    JV3-160SP Yellow head printing full open

    Replacing the slider board did the trick. Upon closer inspection of the older board, noticed some areas that had burned out.

    JV3-160SP Yellow head printing full open

    So we've replaced all four heads on our JV3-160SP trying to resurrect her from the dead. Got ink flowing but then this happened with a test print. Anyone know what the problem could be? The yellow is firing at full blast—even off the page.

  4. Current Cheapest JV3 160s Heads?

    And where/who would that be?

  5. Urgent help needed with Mimaki JV3 firmware update

    I second that. We ordered new chips (our JV3-160S has a tendency to declare a cartridge empty only halfway through) but the ones we were sent were already expired. What's the LCD panel say about the cartridges? EXPIRED or WRONG? If it's EXPIRED, you can solve this by setting the date on the...

    JV3-160S | Print Heads out of sync

    We just "retired" (may she rot slowly in a landfill for the next 100 years) our Black/Magenta print head and replaced it with a brand spanking new one yesterday. Trouble is, the KM and CY print heads are out of sync (see below) thus creating that same visual problem as old CRT TVs. Is the...

  9. JV3-160S misreading/not reading ink cartridges as empty

    Our Mimaki has this annoying issue of not registering when our cyan ink cartridge is empty. So we have to constantly keep an eye on the ink level via our RIP software and preemptively switch out for a new ink cartridge when we get down to 2% otherwise the printer will just keep plotting away...

  10. JV3-160S on Onyx Postershop x10 with Win7

    Should have mentioned this is a 64bit install of Win 7

  11. JV3-160S on Onyx Postershop x10 with Win7

    Just upgraded to Win 7 running Onyx 10 and keep getting Error #11: cannot initialize printer. Checked other forums and apparently this happens to others. Any ideas gents?
