I've mainly used my printer for just about everything, but I needed to make some vinyl lettering for a project, so I grabbed a roll of Oracal 651 and discovered that the backing was basically welded to the vinyl. I tested a couple of other rolls and the same thing with those. I hated to trash...

I would appreciate hearing from anyone that has come across or invented a way to wet cap an ecosolvent print head to keep the nozzles from drying out during extended idle periods? Seems to me like there must be something that can be applied to the head surface that would seal out air and...

I must have screwed something up real bad in my color profiles or presets in Flexi because I can't print good reds anymore. I had this problem when I first bought this printer, in fact I was angry that such an expensive printer was not able to produce a vibrant red that I could get out of a...

I see fonts named "Head Human Condensed" but I can't seem to locate the one named simply "Human Condensed" Has anyone encountered this one?

I have a Mutoh 1204 and I am curious if anyone has found a way to keep the print head from drying out for an extended period? If I do not have any print jobs I exercise the head once a week to keep the ink flowing. I would like to take a three or four week vacation but I am concerned about...

Is there anyone that can Identify this font?? Thank you

Shortly after I replaced my capping station the print head assembly hangs up while parking and I get an E6 error. I am trying to determine if the problem is the capping station, a weak motor, or a defective sensor. Any troubleshooting advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank You

I have noticed that some sellers of ink solvent state that their general cleaning solvent is not to be used for print head flushing/cleaning. So what is the difference between the two types of solvents? Is one stronger than the other? Does anyone sell a solvent that is suitable for both uses?? I...

I noticed my yellow started fading and then quit completely. I did a cleaning and noticed the wiper was totally clean so that tells me no ink is getting pumped out of the head while it does the cleaning cycle. Can anyone advise me on the steps to trouble shoot this? I replaced the maintenance...

I am contour cutting some 6 Mil bumper sticker vinyl and the sharp corners are not cutting well. I would like to know if I should be using the 60 degree blade instead of the 36 degree blade, or is there something else I should be looking at? I am using the Tangential blade holder.

I was doing a few jobs and I noticed my reds were looking a bit orangie. At first I though I messed up my color management but then I did a nozzle check and discovered an entire section of the two magenta sections was blank. I have experienced nozzles getting clogged or failing but never an...

I am using Flexi 12 and a Mutoh VJ 1204 48" printer. Recently, when I go to print something the printing starts 2 inches from the right side of the media even though I have the objects all the way to the right on the page in the Flexi main software and in the production manager. I have no margin...

Would appreciate any assistance diagnosing this issue. I was getting this error intermittently before I had any print quality issues. The error never happened while printing, it only happened occasionally when the print head was coming off the capping station. I recently replaced the printhead...

I was just curious about how the ink is delivered to the printhead on my Mutoh 1204? Is there a pump for each color? If pressurized what is the psi. on those lines? Does the head suck the ink from the lines, or does it merely act as a valve that opens and closes? Please enlighten me. Thanks

I am having a printhead output issue with my Mutoh 1204 and I wanted to see if there is anyone that might recognize the symptoms. I did not notice this before, but when I use a magnifying glass to look at the Nozzle Check I discovered something interesting. My issue involves only the Cyan color...

It's just a basic question about what they are supposed to do. I am curious to know the function or purpose for the dampers that sit above the print head, and why they would need to be changed a regular intervals? They look like little tanks with baffles and don't appear to have any moving parts...

I've been a slave to my Mutoh printer for 8 long years, having to run a cleaning once a week to prevent the print head from clogging up. Is there anyone that makes a wide format printer of any type that is designed to sit idle for any length of time without causing some kind of harm or damage...

I am starting to get some strange output from my printer. Almost looks like some kind of over spray making wide bands of just wisp of a shadow. Is there any place that has sample pictures of unusual outputs to compare with as a diagnostic tool?

I have several versions of Flexi Sign on my computer. It's easier to keep the old version running than it is to try to transfer the configurations to the newer versions. I went to start the earliest version of Flexi Cloud I have installed and it won't start. When I double click the icon I get...

This is a problem I have not found a solution to. If I create a sign with text inside a border, and then add weed lines, those weed lines will not extent to the text inside the border rendering them useless. Does anyone have a trick or tip for adding weed lines inside a border? I'm using Flexi...
