  2. Flexi vs Onyx

    Genericname- Yea, you can actually in productionhouse, just not postershop with version 7. With version 10, I believe both come with a "layout tool"? And is switching to it an option? I hope, but gotta convince the suits.
  3. Flexi vs Onyx

    OK, I've been using Onyx for years, since postershop 5. I have changed jobs and they have an HP L2550 latex, and at the time Flexi was the only software that supported it. I used HP 5000 in the past with Onyx 5 and 6, and with 7 used a Mimaki JV3. Now, I have to use Flexi to rip, and I...
  4. Onyx resizing oddity - Panels change by themselves

    i've encountered this before as well... scale adjust is something to look at. Also, if these are images, for whatever reason it calculates size adjustments sometimes from dpi. Changing the dpi in the file to fixed for me, but it seems random when it does it.
  5. JV3-160SP Inconsistant ink problems...

    not printing on vinyl, printing on paper (even though it occurs with both) So, in theory, lets say I get 8 new dampers and want to wash the lines...do I need 8 cleaning cartridges? I know you can do one color at a time (2 lines) but how many washes do I get out of a 220 wash cartridge?
  6. JV3-160SP Inconsistant ink problems...

    I replaced all 8 dampers on 1/20/10. Maybe time for new ones? The head refresh is already at a max of 3 in my rip, so I can't move that any higher. @mustafade the resolutions you speak of sounds like the standards for a JV33, I have a JV3 which I always print 720x720vardot, typically 8pass...
  7. JV3-160SP Inconsistant ink problems...

    cleaned strip with distilled water, and tried cleaning the encoder lens as best as I could....it's hard getting anything down in that thin notch. I used a folded coffee filter. Helped a bit, but it still exists.
  8. JV3-160SP Inconsistant ink problems...

    oh and I get this issue on basically all media except banner. My samples are on paper. Paper it is the worst.
  9. JV3-160SP Inconsistant ink problems...

    in terms of the media comp, that isn't a while line, its larger spacing between the rows of dots. I dont know why it does this. My media comp on the one closer to edge of paper is right, in terms of lining up the rows of dots between passes with uniform spacing. As for the black print, it...
  10. JV3-160SP Inconsistant ink problems...

    OK, I'm completely lost on what to do here, and now its affecting my clientbase. I'm getting what looks almost like a starvation but its not at all uniform. It happens in every color, vector or image, randomly throughout all prints. I'm attaching an image of a rich black print and a media...
  11. Head mis-registration ("3D-like" glow)

    worked perfectly, I kind of knew this was the case, but I know its a tedious process I didn't want to deal with. dint change any of the "fine" settings but dont print on fine anyway, so left those alone...
  12. Head mis-registration ("3D-like" glow)

    so just go through the entire PRN adjust to fix?
  13. Head mis-registration ("3D-like" glow)

    I have a JV3-160SP, and I recently noticed a "3D like" effect on solid colors that use both yellow and cyan, example here is shown with a 4color black. All my tests seem to look ok, not sure what adjustments I need to do to get this issue resolved. This machine is over 4 years old, but the...
  14. JV3 160sp Banding gets worse as carriage goes left

    Adam, How do I check the carriage motor and data cable? Also what chips are you talking about? Thanks
  15. JV3 160sp Banding gets worse as carriage goes left

    Thanks a lot... The machine is about to be 3 years old. I will check all that out in the morning tomorrow. How can I tell if the bushings are bad? Also is that a part that suppliers have or it it something at a hardware store? I will let you know what I find. Thanks
  16. JV3 160sp Banding gets worse as carriage goes left

    Hello, We have been having a problem for a few months now. We are getting a faded banding that gets worse as the carrige goes away from the starting point. It is happening in uni and bidirectional printing, fast and normal, 8 pass 4 pass. We have adjusted the room temp and humidity,changed...
