  1. Mutoh 1204GA Color Help - Lost my Reds.

    I need to put this thread on hold. I was missing a few nozzles but all of a sudden I am missing a bunch of nozzles. I tried several Strong Cleanings and that seems to make it worse. I can see the wiper after each cleaning and there is hardly anything on it as though ink is not being drawn out of...
  2. Mutoh 1204GA Color Help - Lost my Reds.

    I use CMYK and my brightest red is using M=100 and Y=80, then I add K from 5 to 15 if I want darker reds, K=15 gives me a blood red. I attached pictures but I don't know if they show the difference very well. In person it's obvious. I'll follow up with screen shots of the settings first chance...
  3. Mutoh 1204GA Color Help - Lost my Reds.

    That's sad considering how expensive Flexi is. What are you using now? What really makes me mad is how everything could be working real fine for years and then all of a sudden not. I found a media and color profile combination that produced excellent reds on all the vinyls I normally use, then...
  4. Mutoh 1204GA Color Help - Lost my Reds.

    I wish I could do that, but I never purchased Spectrophotometer, I am regretting that now.
  5. Mutoh 1204GA Color Help - Lost my Reds.

    Unfortunately I have never used Fellers, but thanks for the suggestion.
  6. Mutoh 1204GA Color Help - Lost my Reds.

    Version 12. Also I performed the test suggested by ColorCrest. Turning off all Color Management did nothing, Reds are still orange or brown. In retrospect i probably should have posted this issue in the Flexi section.
  7. Mutoh 1204GA Color Help - Lost my Reds.

    I will try that experiment tomorrow.
  8. Mutoh 1204GA Color Help - Lost my Reds.

    Missing a few but at 1440 res you can't really tell. Also, I should mention I can print out individual solid color bars of the 4 printer inks, and they look just fine. I believe the problem is with the software not the printer.
  9. Mutoh 1204GA Color Help - Lost my Reds.

    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...
  10. Question Has anyone seen a font named "Human Condensed"?

    That was off the table cause I block Google.

  12. Question Has anyone seen a font named "Human Condensed"?

    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?
  13. Question Is there a trick to keeping a print head from drying out?

    I believe the auto cleaning is On but it's tracking the amount of time in-use not not idle time. When I am using the printer I will notice in the middle of a job it will do a cleaning on rare occasion but I have never seen it go into a cleaning while just sitting there idling. Besides that, if I...
  14. Question Is there a trick to keeping a print head from drying out?

    I hate to spend the money on flushing cartridges and the wasted ink to recharge it but that appears to be the wisest thing to do. The worst part is I had four flushing cartridges sitting on the shelf for years, but I happened to check them not long ago and the solvent ate right through the cases...
  15. Question Is there a trick to keeping a print head from drying out?

    That's what I was afraid of. I was hoping I could discover something I could place in the cap that would rest against the head and keep it from drying out. In the past I have unclogged nozzles by cutting out pieces of microfiber cloth about the size of the inside diameter of the cap, soaking...
  16. Question Is there a trick to keeping a print head from drying out?

    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
  18. Need Diagnostic Help With a Mutoh 1204

    Right you are. The whole process took me about 20 minutes. Two screws hold the plastic top on and once loose all I had to do was remove the the tubes and out it came to work on the bench, then I was a simpe task to remove the carriage and pop the spare in with a new cap top to boot. I put it...

    Thanks so much for helping me out with this. I'll let you know how I make out with it.:u rock:
  20. Need Diagnostic Help With a Mutoh 1204

    That's good news because I have two old stations and both carriages have all four pins intact. I was just looking at them and I see how it comes out. The right side lifts up if you push it all the wat to the right, then you twist gently to slip the other two left pins clear. Looks like the...
