1624

  1. Mutoh Valuejet 1624 printing loudly

    Recently our 1624 is just very loud when it's printing. I've done the maintenance - cleaned and greased the carriage the head slides on - still loud. Is there anyone who troubleshoots this stuff? I'd hate to just start buying and replacing parts without knowing if they'll solve the issue. I...
  2. Am I able to print a 24 inch wide roll on my Mutoh 1624 ValueJet?

    I have a 24 Inch Wide roll of this Holographic vinyl material. I covered the senor under the pinch rollers to make the machine think it's filling in the width. How can I set the media on the machine to recognize its shorter and also to get it to stop saying undefined media?
  3. Am I able to print on 3M 1080-G364 with my Mutoh 1624 ValueJet (EcoSolvent) Printer?

    I have a client who needs a certain vinyl wrap that I can't replicate the effect with on my printer with a regular blank 3M IJ180. Am I able to print on it and if so what issues can I run into and what profile should I be running?
  4. Mutoh 1624x print fades

    Hello! I am printing with a Mutoh 1624x. While printing anything over 2-3ft I notice that the print color kind of washes out. For example I’ll start printing a nice yellow and once the print gets about 2-3ft long it starts printing like a pastel color yellow. It’s not instant, it a very gradual...

  6. Mutoh ValueJet 1624 hazy, misty printing

    I have a 1624 which has overall been a reliable machine.

  8. 1624 Head Replacement

    Hello all - Looks like we have lost almost a full black ink channel in one of our 1624's. Has anyone here replaced a head by themselves before - and do you think this is what needs to be done? We just put in a new maintenance station around a month ago. Nozzle check comes back great with the...
  9. 1624 Take Up Reel/System

    Hello all- We are all a little confused here at the shop. We have two 1624's, both have the material take-up reel/system (VJ-16TUP30U). On our oldest 1624 (somewhere around 6 years old, still going strong), we are having an issue where the take-up reel is askew. It is causing the material to...
  10. Spectrovue

    I was wondering if someone else has ran into the same problem we have with trying to calibrate profiles for our printer with the Spectrovue. We have a Mutoh Value Jet 1624, Onyx 10 Poster Shop and a Spectrovue VM-10. When we go to Media Manager in our Onyx and try to edit a profile that...

  12. Mutoh 1638X - Looking to Purchase

    I have been a Roland guy since 2006. after my xc-540 I could not be happier. I recently purchased an xr-640 and could not be more unhappy and unimpressed.

  14. Mutoh VJ1624 Banding

    I have a banding issue that is very noticable on the blue fade that I'm printing that's 130" long. I have made sure my feed rate is adjusted properly and have tried the effects "fine & fuzzy, fine & wave" as well as different heat levels, but it still seems to band on me. Some of the banding is...
