Just for info, I've started a new thread for the bi-directional issue as this is different from the original motor/overcurrent error: https://www.signs101.com/threads/bi-directional-printing-suddenly-stops.173153/#post-1611178
Sorry - messed that up. The dark green is the correct colour, you can see the head missing passes before ending up 100% uni-directional with a faded green print.
Hi there, we're running a Mimaki JV33 with a brand new configured Main PCB board. It prints well for a few meters and then suddenly the bi-directional printing drops out. See attached photos, the print should be dark green but you can see the print fading out as the ink is only laid down in one...
Ok so: main assay replaced, using the old regen resistance board, and parameters uploaded. I struggled with the station board - it wasn't happy at all and threw up a range of different sensor errors and even refused to show anything on screen. I swapped it out with a new one and replaced the...
Great, thanks very much. The paper jam almost certainly provoked the Peak error in that case.
Parameter upload didn't get rid of the error message unfortunately. And so I have a new regen resistance board and main board on the way, will let you know how it goes.
I can't get into the #ADJUST -> MOTOR CURRENT (stop current, x and y current) options because the motor power is off, I kicked out. I will try the parameter re-upload though. Thanks for the tip.
Good plan - I swapped it and replaced the fuse on the Main PCB board as well, for good mesure. Still have the same error, with the motor plugged in and disconnected.
I suspect I'm going to have to get a new Main PCB board and try replacing that...
Evening all - after a paper jam our Mimaki JV33-160 is showing a ’error 43 - y motor overprint : peak´ error message. Does anyone know what that means exactly and what makes it different from the ‘:ave’ error which I’ve found references to?
I‘ve swapped the y motor with one from an identical...
Hello all! Was just wondering if anyone knows if it's possible to repair print heads? We have a print head (M007947) with a broken wall between one of the black and yellow channels. We've replaced it and I'm a little reluctant to just throw it away if a company somewhere in the world can repair...
Hi there, just a quick message to close this thread down.
- on one of our machines a capping station replacement (the whole thing - head + carriage) and a careful capping head adjustment solved the banding problem
- on the second machine, the same maintenance didn't help and after testing the...
Can you have a look at the picture above? The state of the print head after a small production run, hard clean and a test draw. The capping station looks set too far to one side, do you know how I can set this in the #ADJUST -> Capping menu? I'm having trouble finding the right configuration:

I've come across some threads about similar problems - one guy was talking about the humidity and temperature during the winter months. It's worth a try! It's cold in our print room and so I've boosted the heating, set up a machine to dehumidify the room, have left the head soaking for 24hours...
A mid cartridge: the bags are on a stand with lines running into the cartridges inserted in the machine and are positioned slightly higher. On the Mimaki supplied stand as far as I know.
I've checked the ink to make sure all the bags are full or at least have some ink in them, both printers have a bulk ink system which seems to be working ok. And the cartridge inserts seem to be intact.
Changing the dampers is an option though I guess.
Hello all, I've got a very frustrating problem with both our Mimaki JV33-160 printers. Have a look a the test print result below, there are very fine traces of black ink at the top and bottom of the yellow blocks:
Which unfortunately cause massive problems when printing - big thick horizontal...
