Yeah it's just that even the SP540v which I traded in over a year ago (I believe its a 15 year old machine) had this feature and the Mimaki being so much newer makes no sense at all. Also I wish Rasterlink is more like Versaworks. Roland machines are much simpler to use :(

Ohh I see so a male USB on one end and a female on the other. Thanks again for the information I'll get one now and let you know how it goes. I just can't believe that Mimaki would add an ethernet port without it being at all useful for network printing. Thanks

Thank you. So do I connect a long Ethernet cable to the Ethernet port of the Mimaki?

Thank you so much for responding :) Firstly just want to thank you as you've always been super helpful with the problems I encountered in the past it's much appreciated. I will have to go for the Ethernet USB hub method as the hot folder route definitely sounds like too much work. I've just...

Hello everyone, I really need some help on this as I feel like I'm almost there with this. So I have a Mimaki CJV150 downstairs. My main powerful computer is upstairs. I just want to know is there a way for me to rip and print using my upstairs computer to the machine, simple as that. I have...

I part exchanged my SP540v for the VS540i. I owned the SP540v for just one year but in that time it gave me minimal problems and ran like a tank everyday. I owned the CJV30-60 and I didn't end up using it due to the learning curve. After a whole year of inactivity the Mimaki's Ink lines dried up...

Couldn't have said it better myself and that Local/Remote setting is definitely annoying. At the moment I don't feel super confident leaving the machine to print as I'm too paranoid incase something goes wrong. There are too many quirks which slow down the whole process. All in all if I had to...

Yeah I'm sure it will cause some serious damage if it keeps happening. I traded in my CJV30 for the CJV150 not long ago and remembered there was a switch from thin to thick media on the print head carriage. I'm not sure how to raise the printhead on this one but will look into it. Are there any...

Now that you put it that way I do think that maybe the media is rising up which causes this to happen lol I try to set the origin on the media so that it doesn't waste too much at the beginning of every print which might be the cause of this. However even mid way through a long print head...

It might just be down to the profile I use. It's not really super important I suppose as the speed is still adequate. Thank you for your input. I do have a funny issue that happens from time to time and wonder if it's the same on your end. This has happened to my Mimaki twice so far and it seems...

I don't think I've fiddled around with the settings on the actual printer and with the size of the passes I don't have a way of setting this. The detail tab is greyed out on the 6 pass. I'm using Rasterlink 6 so is Scan Speed and "Fast Print" the same thing? It's set to high on Scan Speed. Bi...

Hi Neil. Thank you so much for your response as this definitely clears things up for me. I was looking at the Mimaki website and saw that there are 2 of each cartridge in the slots and didn't know whether it was for reserve or if they were both active making the print speeds faster. When you say...

Hi guys. So I had my Mimaki CJV150-75 for nearly a month now. At the time the tech guy told me that I only need 4 Cartridges (CMYK) to run in dual CMYK setup. At the moment I only have 4 cartridges in and the nozzle tests do show a dual CMYK print. The tech guy said putting in 2 of each colour...

Yeah in that case I think that the cutting on the Mimaki is definitely slower than the Roland. Overall though I can't complain. I will add however if I were to choose between my Roland and the Mimaki I think the Roland is just far easier and quicker to use. The Mimaki's initialisation and going...

Hi Dan, thank you so much for your response. I called up the company who sold me the machine several times and in the end one of the technicians told me the same thing you just did :) Funnily enough you seem to be the only person who is aware of this on the Forum. I have found 2 other threads...

Apparently there isn't a way to nest print and cut jobs with Rasterlink 6 :( I mean this is such a simple function that I use all the time with Versaworks. Is this true or is there a way round it? Basically I need to have several different eps files on a single row to save media. There is only a...

Which one is the better deal? What are the main differences between the 2 in terms of tech.

Yeah the TrueVis was great but in the end I settled for the VS540i. To be honest with my work it's completely fine for what I need and is faster at dual CMYK than the TruVis. Better speed but lower quality than TruVis is preferred over better quality to me in the end.

Hi, I've taken a look at those links and it shows the max it prints is 1440 x 720.

Hi, So I have a quick question about the DX5 vs the DX6 epson printheads. Am I missing something or is the Max Resolution of the VS series 1440 x 720 dpi whereas something like the CJV30 can do 1440 x 1440 dpi I thought that the DX6 printheads were a step up.
