  1. Vacuum hole dust spots on fabric

    When I print fabric on my flatbed, I end up with little spots where the vacuum holes are that appear to be dust filtered from the air by the fabric. Wiping with a damp rag, and compressed air doesn't seem to remove it. The only way I can think to prevent it would be some sort of tacky board I...
  2. Alcohol streaks in UV prints

    My operator tried to apply Natron M74F primer to a sheet of 1/2" clear acrylic, and apparently we're still doing something wrong, as he applied it and noticed streaks after it dried. He messed with it for 30min, going over again with primer, and then finally resorting to isopropyl alcohol to get...
  3. UPS for my flatbed?

    I have a JFX200/2352EX and we periodically have thunderstorms. On a bad storm earlier this year, we had several pieces of electronics damaged. Luckily, they were repairable for a few hundred dollars in parts. But the cost of parts is only one expense, as the loss of use is much greater. I'm...
  4. Profiling in Onyx

    After successfully setting up a profile on paper, I set out to do a profile for clear acrylic. I was advised to use material as thin as possible and the thinnest acrylic is 0.06" thick, so I'm using some thin 0.02" acetate film from a project. Per the video on setting up spot colors, I wanted...
  5. Onyx CMYK+W+CMYK

    I'm in the process of building out an install of Onyx Go+ 24. It has a lot of features I've not yet uncovered, but it seems quite capable. For example, on jobs larger than the selected material, it automatically tiles it and after printing each tile, it moves the head out of the way and prompts...
  6. Two installs of onyx go+ on same license?

    I have a laser printer and our flatbed, both are supported by onyx and fit on the go+ license (2 printers, 3 rip engines. However, they’re in totally different locations in the building. Can I have two installs of the software if each only drive one printer from each?
  7. Acrylic ink adhesion

    I have a JFX200-2351EX wirh LUS-150 inks (lus-100 clear). We primarily print on acrylic. Due to the variety of acrylics we print on, it is not practical to get digital acrylic. We also did not opt for a primer channel in favor of an extra white channel. I have the GL-1 Mimaki primer which seemed...
  8. Onyx 24 new user questions (Mimaki JFX200-2513EX)

    I installed Onyx Go Plus today, and despite no apparent documentation being available (for free), I've worked my way through it so far. But I've encountered some issues/questions that I'm hoping someone can help with. 1. I have selected the driver for my JFX200-2513EX. There seem to be only 2...
  9. Excerpts of an image didn't print the same as the main image

    Mimaki JFX200-2513 EX Rasterlink 6 Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop current version I've got a WebP image provided by a client. It's sRGB. It's a photo of an collage art piece composed of individually painted wood pieces. The client wants us to print and then cut out the individual pieces and...
  10. Affordable color management and RIP options?

    We just installed a Mimaki JFX200-2513EX flatbed and I'm finding that Rasterlink 6 is not great. Our vendor made us a 600x600 calibrated profile that is good for most of our work, but I want to offer lower and higher resolution capabilities and right now, the color doesn't match. While I can...
  11. How to fix printed dimensions on my JFX200-2513EX being too small?

    I have a new JFX200-2513EX. Per the installers suggestion, I printed lines representing the right and bottom-most edge and applied adhesive metal rulers along the marks. This gives me a very thin, but still raised edge to butt the material against. It also gives me quick reference to table...
  12. UV Primer tips and tricks?

    We have a new Mimaki JFX200-2513EX with LUS-150 inks (clear is LUS-100). We're struggling to learn the process of properly using primer. We primarily print on acrylic, but sometimes on anodized aluminum. For acrylic we selected the Mimaki GM-1 as a test chart at Mimaki during our demo found...
