We just bought the Rohland-640 and using versaworks to rip. (AWESOME) however we currently only have the mimaki cg160fx plotter. Now versaworks prints trim marks for me. But to cut through the plotter is seems I have to send it throught the flexi rip production manager. and my cuts arent...

We use the mimaki jv3-160. We just recently switched from megaink to triangle ink. We use bulk system and mega apparently is going away. The triangle ink works well. However I cant seem to find any support for color profiles. Im having bigger problems printing correctly on banner material...

When i disway and nozzlewash (or try to) the black cap station wont hold the fluid. it will just empty out without the pump working. the other 3 caps work fine. anyone ever experience this?

I got some sample canvas in. But when i print it seems the ink doesnt look lively. the black is dull and overall brightness is lackluster. I was wondering if there was a certain way to pring to canvas, or is this just the way it is. Its a cloth like canvas. forgot the nomenclature. hell, i...

When setting up a print, the media scroll is grayed out. I can select output profile, but i cant change the media. We had a problem yesterday and we had to do a system restore to even get the production manager to start. And I think while messing with other stuff we may have lost some stuff...

Using flexi 7.6 Tried to clear preferences, but I cant find where to do it. Ive data cleared the printer (jv3-160) and rebooted windows. Ive also tried a system restore to last month with no success. And Ive disabled all firewalls and did a windows update. Im about mins from just...

Im sure someone does. But over the past year or so Ive been learning more and more about this printer. Im wondering now how to replace one of the heads myself instead of paying 2 grand (parts, labor and travel) out for a tech. Cant seem to find any literature. tips and tools?

I did a search for this. So if anyone knows where a thread is, please point it out. I use a JV3-160sp. Megaink solvents. When I do a test print the black prints are messed up. the little rectangles arent aligned right. Thats supposed to mean I need to wash the heads, right? That was done...

It will find the side edges and stop. The rollers wont roll. You can hear the motor or something make sounds as if its wanting to roll, but the rollers dont move. You can move them freely with your finger, so i know nothing is stuck. worked fine yesterday, not working this morning. 1st...

One of my fans went out. It one of the 2 bottom ones near the pick up roll. The fan is a Sanyo Denki San Ace 120. the model number is 109r1224h102. Ive looked everywhere i know for this model number and cant find it. Any one here had to replace their fans?

I use a jv3 160. I get this waviness in my greens and oranges. Its weird looking. Its done his since before I took over printing. And no one here knows whats causing it. But there is a wave effect in green and orange hues. Hoping someone here has come across this before.

I got a clogged nozzle and Ive been cleaning all day yesterday and this morning. I need to do a head wash and the manual is vague to me. Is there anyone here who has done this a few times and tell me what I need? This is such a noob question but Ive got my boss breathing down my neck about...

JV3-160sp. when i print red, i can see a little bit of yellow to the left of the image. just a tid bit of a yellow shadow. i aligned the heads but it still shows up. can anybody tell me what this is about? you can only notice it when looking at it from about a foot away. but it still...

lately ive been noticing the roller tracks showing in the ink? do i have the heat to high? it goes away after about a foot or so. weird.

I use megaink right now. was wondering what ink has given you guys best results with a mimaki jv3 160.

anyone here have problems achieving a good bright red? mine is close, but is has no luster. its as if i have a tad of cyan mixed, but i dont. all black is remived. not sure if its my profile or how i have it mixed (last change is 100% Y / 97% magenta). the more i raise the magenta the more...

Im printing a grip of decals. and about every 300-500 inches into the job, it starts to run 2 passes. starts off at 4 passes and switches to 2 without me doing anything. and its not at the same spot in the job either. dont understand why this would happen.

i printed a large sign on vinyl. 5x9. i have limitations here for lamination so i had to splice into 2 halfs. but one half was a quarter inch longer than the other half. this happens all the time so i have to create the art with that in mind to splice thru where there is only solid color...

I have flexi 7 and illustrator cs3. i usually create my sign art in illustrator and output using flexi. i was wondering why i even need flexi when i can do much more creatively in illustrator. flexi is terribly more expensive than illustrator. so whats you guys' opinions? not sure what...

I have had a color problem with flexi forever. the mimaki will not print the color i have selected in the swatch. red comes out dk red, orange comes out brown, ..etc. I know this has something to do with the color gamut which i dont know much about. Ive used a work around; adjusting the color...
