  1. (OKC) Mimaki/Inkjet Field Service Tech Looking For Possible Work

    Figured it's worth a shot, since as far as I know there are no Mimaki techs in the state. Not certified, but been working on Mimaki, Mutoh and Epson stuff for quite a while. Lots of experience with UV as well as general automation systems, PLC's and systems like that. Mostly been doing freelance...
  2. UCJV330 Specs, Price, Etc.

    Just wondering if anyone has seen these in the wild yet? Seems pricing is still listed as TBB (but they show in stock and a 5-star rating, impressive). Not a lot to go on from the videos they've released recently and the spec sheet only goes into so much detail. If I were to guess, they seem to...
  3. For Sale Parting Out TS300-1800P

    As the title says, printheads are all unrecoverable and am in the process of tearing this guy down. Happy to ship parts as needed and can pull most things. I have a good portion of the control boards all removed and ready to go. Everything functioned, just the head issue, so tons of good parts...
  4. For Sale (OKC) Mimaki UJF-6042 (MK1) and UJF-3042 MKII Printers for Sale

    Selling off some surplus printers to make room other stuff. Already running 2x 6042MKIIs and they're enough maintenance on their own. I have a rough condition UJF-6042 MK1 that needs a new head and a thorough cleaning and a good deal of work. Might just be best as a parts printer, total project...
  5. CJV150-107 Clean/Flush After Long-Term Storage

    Ended up landing a CJV150 and it sat a good two years without maintenance cycles and power off. Printer is in AMAZING shape, all the drip pads are clean and the thing apparently only had a couple hundred hours of use. No signs of head strikes, ink appears to be liquid in the lines still, carts...
  6. UJF-6042 MKII Head Issues

    Been wracking my brain on one of my MKII's and can't figure the head issue out. Have a sense it might be a head failure. New cap, new damper, full flushing, did nozzle flow check with flushing solvent and had flow from all nozzles. Emptied out the LC channel next to it and it refills and cleans...
  7. So, I Joined the Summa Cult... New Acquisition S120 T Series

    Snagged a nice used cutter and am getting the thing dialed in. Loving the tangential and mostly been problem free. The Cutter Control workflow seemed to take some getting used to, but I am really liking it overall. Documentation is a bit lacking on these, but the standard user manual is pretty...
  8. UCJV300 Error 90d

    Got a fun one that's been haunting me for a while. It pops up randomly at times, so not too easy to pin down. Guaranteed error if you do a print cleaning cycle with just head 2 selected and will occasionally pop up on a supply ink/overflow error. Error 90d. Service manual states: 1. Check the...
  9. Scrap, Part Out, Fix or Sell? UJF-6042 (MK1)

    Been idly messing with a MK1 UJF and thinking it's time to find it a new use. Thing was left on a top shelf in a warehouse for a couple of years before it came to me. Has a bad head, slider board printhead connector clips are all rotted, head plate has a broken screw, one head is trashed. Never...
  10. Firmware Updating (UCJV300/UJF3042-6042 MKII)

    Not really seen any good guides for firmware updates on these printers. Every printer I use gives me a message of "Your product has the special version of firmware or It is a product that cannot be updated by this application.", even when in service mode. I can connect to the boards with jumpers...
  11. UCJV300 Print & Cut without Illustrator or Corel

    As it says on the title. Not a big fan of either Illustrator or Corel draw, and I work with a lot of bitmaps that look like utter crap if vectorized. I don't mind RasterLink in the least, so that's not an issue. Just looking for some nice basic path cut tracing and I wished that FineCut could...
  12. UJF-6042 MKII UV LED Weirdness

    Working on a recently acquired UJF and got it all up and running for a bit. Started getting temperature messages for the LED unit. Pulled out the thermal imager, looked good. Heat was being pumped out, filters were all good. Looks like the unit was replaced very recently as the black plastics...
  13. TS300P-1800 Head Cleaning, Flushing and Rebuild

    Picked up one of the TS300P sublimation printers that is in bad need of head cleaning. Since solvent ink cleaner was used, it resulted in nightmarish clogs. Also, having issues with gunk built up in the lines. No luck sourcing a service manual for the thing either, but it seems to share most...
  14. Sub Tank Overfilling on UJF-6042 MKII

    Less of a request for help, more of a handy tidbit of information for folks getting the same issues. Had constant overfill errors on the 6042MKII and found to be not the sub-tank that was the problem, but the filters (part #M022219). Seems that over time, the clear membrane (covered in foil)...
  15. Reviving a UJF-6042 (MK1), No Ink From Heads

    After spending a few long days working on the scrapped UJF6042 I got a while back, I am still having issues getting any ink from the heads. I've flushed the lines with ethyl acetate (LF-200's primary chemical), replaced the dampers, flushed the heads directly and gotten great nozzle flow on what...
  16. Wanted Looking for Mimaki Clogged/Bad UJF6042/3042 MK1/MK2 Printheads

    Looking to acquire some test heads that are electrically intact, but otherwise out of service. We're testing some new ink formulations and don't want to use new heads until we're sure corrosion, abrasion and other such things aren't an issue. Flexible in price and not in a huge hurry. Located in...
  17. UJF-6042 MKII & MK1 Projects & Rebuild, Hacking, Etc.

    Managed to get ahold of a retired UJF-6042 printer and am currently having a helluva time getting the thing back up and running. The unit was left in storage with ink still in it for a couple of years and finally have most of the gelled inks cleaned out. Had a heck of a time getting more than 1...
  18. WTB Graphtec FC7000 Series Main Board (PR312201B)

    Title says most of it, looking to acquire a proper Graphtec (It cannot be the Vinyl Express version) to do a full ROM dump on. I am looking at modifying the loader to be able to convert and install proper Graphtec firmware on Vinyl Express Q series cutters. I know these aren't the most common...
  19. New Guy Graphtec-Vinyl Express Plotters on VinylMaster

    First post here and I have been wandering the forums here for quite a bit picking up info on my apparently cursed combination of hardware. I am running an Epson 9900 and a Vinyl Express Q160 cutter. After a few days of tweaking, cussing and trying my damnedest to get ARMS to work properly, I...
