  1. Suggestions Mutoh 1324 Head Strike Question

  4. Mimaki CJV30-100 losing CMYK during print.

    Hi there, Just yesterday I changed all 8 dampers on my Mimaki CJV30-100 with cheap Chinese dampers (complete with O-ring and screwcap). I bought the machine second hand and have the machine for 1,5 year now, so probably about time. Hoped it would solve some of the banding I can't seem to get...

  9. JV3 Printhead needed? YES? NO? MAYBE?

    I have attached a picture of the test pattern from our JV3-160sp. One recent Monday morning the test pattern showed this missing block in one of the yellow patterns.
