  4. mimaki cjv30- can you use the ss21 orange with this machine, and how soon until SS21 fades?

    I'd like to know two things please: 1. Can you use SS21 orange ink on the Mimaki CJV30? 2. Everyone may remember that the Roland orange ink on the RF640 eight color machine would fade noticeably within 3 months. Anyone know about the permanence of the SS21 orange ink?

    Hi all, I've been seeing some ink splatter drops on my prints.... I'd see them time to time but they seem to be getting worse now and I'm not sure what the cause it. I thought it was the wipers so I cleaned them fully but that didn't really help. I just did a full maintenance mode cleaning a...

  17. HP DesignJet z6810

    Brief question.... am I crazy/missing something, or is this just a design flaw in this printer? When a cartridge runs out of ink mid-job, can the z6810 really not pick up where it left off, as its predecessor (the z6100) did? This is so ridiculous. When a cartridge runs out, I can no longer just...

    Hey all. I've been wondering how far I can push my ink cartridges. I'm using HP Latex 310, and the cartridges are 775 ml. I was told by my sales rep to replace inks as soon as the machine says they're low, which usually happens around 100ml. This seems kind of insane to replace such a huge...
