    I have no idea, I've never messed with this stuff before.
  3. Need Help Encoder strip replacement tips

    My problem is when I go to move the carriage, its snagging the strip, so I must have something wrong and pics of one installed would help.
  4. Need Help Encoder strip replacement tips

    Does anyone have pictures or video or replacing the strip? I'm a moron and didn't take a before picture.
  5. Need Help Encoder strip replacement tips

    Well I managed to screw this up and messed up the strip. Apparently I didn't have it seated properly and when I moved the carriage it bunched up the strip and wrinkled it. Anyone know where I can get a new strip ASAP?!

  7. Need Help Encoder strip replacement tips

    I need to replace the encoder strip on my JV3 and I haven't done it before. Any tips before I do it? I know to have it powered off and unplugged, but want to make sure I don't mess it up.
  8. Need Help JV3-75 SP II Y current error

    I've done that and it of course doesn't make the noise then. I went through and thoroughly cleaned and lubed the rails and made sure the carriage bushings are clean and it seems to be working now. I'm still going to replace the encoder strip when it comes in, but for now I'm just happy its working.
  9. Need Help JV3-75 SP II Y current error

    What should I look for as far as the bushing goes? I'll look over the rail again to make sure something isn't on it.
  10. Need Help JV3-75 SP II Y current error

    I'm having a problem while printing or even when the carriage is coming back into the capping station where I get the Y current error. As the carriage is traveling, I hear a clunking noise and I'm not entirely sure where its coming from. I'm waiting a new encoder strip, but I don't think that is...
  11. JV33 intermittent cleaning

    Thanks Vander, that's what I was looking.
  12. JV33 intermittent cleaning

    Kind of a dumb question, but where in the settings is the option have the printer refresh/clean itself when its not in and powered off? I remember on the JV3 you could have the machine do this, but I don't remember the exact phrasing for it and I don't won't go pushing a bunch of settings and...
  13. Ink or Media Issue

    My JV33 has done pretty much the same thing. It worked great for about a year, then one day just took a dump for no reason. Didn't change a thing with it, just decided to start banding and messing with colors. I've had a tech out several times, replaced several components and nothing has worked...
  14. CG-130FX II not responding to adjustments

    I am having an issue with my plotter not making adjustments when I enter new values. It was cutting off, so I made some adjustments to compensate for it and nothing happens. I zeroed everything and started over including a new 400mm square and getting that looking good. The main issue is the...
  15. Mimaki print test problem

    I am not familiar with this model either, but it looks like if you did an overnight head soak in cleaning solution, it would definitely help. Not sure what if its called the same thing, but on mine you do a custody wash where you clean the wiper blade, then fill the capping station ink docks...
  16. JV3-130 SP II winder engine issues

    I was going to say I would sell you mine for cheap, we don't use ours. But we have 75 SP II and your take up reel appears to different from our mine.
  17. JV33 still stopping mid print

    It may seem dumb, but you have done a "data clear" on the machine. I had an issue like this in the past and doing the data clear took care of it.
  18. Mimaki JV3-130spII - Media sensor not working properly

    I was having the same problem with my JV33 and after messing with a lot things, it turns out the encoder strip was dirty. Along where the carriage runs is a clear strip, that is the encoder strip, and be cleaned by diluting alcohol into some water. Gently wipe both sides of the stripe using a...
  19. URGENT!!! Source for Mimaki JF1631 Yellow Ink...being told on back order

    I have noob question about switching to Triangle. I am thinking of at least using it on my JV3 instead of OEM to save money and it sounds like they work great. I know I am supposed to swap out all my inks at once for the new stuff, but is there anything else I have to do? Do I need to do...
  20. CG-130FX cutting poorly

    Replaced the cut strip and that took care of the issue. A real pain in the butt getting the adhesive out of the groove.
