Hi, We've got a JFX200-2513 and were wondering how to calibrate the scan / feed direction control settings. We'll routinely print onto various materials with calibration marks that are used when cutting out shapes on a CNC router. We know the router is calibrated, based on their squaring...

Hey guys, I'm looking for a little guidance here. We got a JFX200 a few months ago, and ever since we haven't been able to get consistent prints on the bed. When we do a head height check across the bed, it's all over the place. I've had multiple techs in from the distributor we purchased it...

Hi Everyone - Just wanted peoples thoughts on the below please. We have a Mimaki TS500-1800A, and when we start the machine in the morning a lot of nozzles are missing. So we perform a clean and all the nozzles come back to life and a test print shows them all working and firing. However, as...

Hi Everyone, Just recently our Mimaki CJV150 has not been capping properly. We noticed this last weekend as we had some missing nozzles when we arrived in the office Monday morning. At first I didn't think much of it and just did the usually procedure we do to get them back. None of them come...

Hello all! Was just wondering if anyone knows if it's possible to repair print heads? We have a print head (M007947) with a broken wall between one of the black and yellow channels. We've replaced it and I'm a little reluctant to just throw it away if a company somewhere in the world can repair...

I need a printhead for a Mimaki JV33-130. Prices online range from $765.00 to a bit over $2,000, which is a huge difference. Most sites list the printheads for $2,000 +(-). Is there a difference between the mid seven hundred dollar heads, and those that sell for two grand? Here's the link to...

Our plotter is a CG-160FXII. The software is Mimaki Fine Cut 9 and we are running it on a Mac. We are having trouble on long cutting runs (10'+) with the plotter finding the registration marks, but up until now we have only put them at the corners. We weren't aware of "intermediate...

Note: This is my first post (I was recommended this forum by someone on Facebook) I have been using RasterLink for several years with our Mimaki CJV150 printers but have found myself frustrated with arbitrary file/job limits in RasterLink so I am looking into another RIP software. The crowd...

Having a hard time with bi-directional printing lately. We used to only print bi-directional, high scan speed, but lately anything with fine details comes out blurry on bi-directional. I've tried dropPOScorrect but can't seem to get the line to move on pos #1. I've tried greatly exaggerating the...

I understand this update is not available thru the firmware updater anymore? I'm at version 5.0 on my JV33-130. I've just refurbished the machine myself and want to upgrade to 5.7 to gain access to the MAPS function to reduce the banding. Anyone have any luck finding the firmware from any techs?
