  1. Soljet xf-640

    Hello after many years! I will answer my spare part question: CAP ==> I prefer digiprint-supplies.com spare cap (compatible one for €9.0 app). I am happy to use it. Damper ==> I have to use the original one which is too exprensive; but I have no reliable compatible option. Head Cable ==> I...
  2. URGENT! HELP! Dx5 printhead drops ink all the time.

    Possible Solution Hi, I have 5 JV5's which use DX5 printhead. I might encounter same issue. The reason of your issue has to be related to dampers. So, you need to replace dampers until dropping stops. That is what I am doing at least. I buy cheap dampers (1.5-2$) from various sources and...
  3. Mimaki JV5-160S Printing Head Problems

    Hi, We have 2 JV5's and 1 TS5 running. We can assume that JV5 and TS5 are same in our perspective. We are in textile bussiness which means our ink is sublimation type. The thing is, we replace each head in 1-1.5 years average. I guess that seems unbelivable to some. The difference of textile...
  4. JV5 sublimation yellow cross contaminated with black

    As it is expressed before, captop clogging might cause ink contamination (such as black into yellow lines). In case of older printheads (say above 1 year) it might indicate that printhead is about to die. I am not saying that is the only reason; but that is one of the chances. To understand...
  5. New DX5 printheads cause a line at 60cm

    Hello eveyone, We have 2 JV5's and 3 TS5's. I have to say that we can use F160 and F187 DX5 printheads. It does not have to be original Mimaki dedicated printhead. We have been using this way for three years and I see that it is highly possible that people aren't mostly aware of that ability...

    Hello All, We are in sublmation bussiness. XF-640 has two printheads (DX7) It has been 1 year and 9 months since we bought our first ROLAND XF-640. I think, I might assume myself as true tester for that device. 1) In 21 months, we replaced 3 printheads (one replacement was this week) ==>...

  9. Roland xr 640 Streaks

    Hi, It is highly probably that there is some kind of residual piece which rubs the media on scan direction. The color of the streak is same with the preceding font. That is a simple evidence about my claim. I advice you/your employee to move print head (while it is turned off) to the left...
  10. Error 08 linear encoder :sensor (cjv30-160bs)

    Just a small reminder; Maybe you need to check the cable between the sensor and slider board. Just a connectivity test between two edges of sam cable and short-circuit test between parallel cables. Maybe you need to focus on the cable. Regards...
