  7. Rant are all dampers created equal?

    are all dampers created equal? Why does Mimaki use the tall dampers on a dx5 head, and Roland uses the small side by side dampers, and Mutoh uses the dual channel dampers? All are "based" on the same dx5 technology but everyone has a different theory... I am a little crazy so I might just try...
  8. power problem

    I was printing on the Mutoh 1624 and the substrate got caught on the cover (was stuck inside). After a few minutes the printer powered down. It would not power up. I was told to unplug it - turn it on - wait 20 minutes - turn it off - plug it in and then restart it. It would only begin to...
  9. How is this done?

    I do kart graphics, but wondering how the prism vinyl is added to the designs. Is it cut out and layed ontop of the printer vinyl or is the design printed on the prism vinyl? The prism vinyl would primarily be used to outline numbers and maybe a couple accent designs. Also for flourescent in...

    Who here runs a VJ-54 that would be willing to discuss some things I have ran across? Who has ever had channels for different colors drop out and be missing the entire channel on a DX-6? Who runs NuTec Inks in the ValueJet? Thanks in advance....
  14. Question was my Mutoh 426uf a waste?

    Hello all. Last year I purchased a Mutoh 426uf. Owning an engraving business, I wanted to introduce color graphics to my inventory. The training was brief and after a week I noticed my ink levels were surprisingly low. I brought this to the attention of my mutoh rep and he said the initial...

  16. Mutoh 1624 Subtank Not filling

    We have a 1624 here at the shop and the black subtank will not refill. I performed a valve check for the subtank and you can hear a click when this is done. All of the other tanks fill up just fine but the black is almost sucked up tight. Also, I have almost zero black steps on the nozzle check...
