JV33 Bad Quality printing after installing head
Hello.
In JV33 is really important to proceed with several adjustments after replacing a Print Head:
1) First, you have to do a HEAD SLANT Adjust in Technical Mode. This is really important because affects the Print Quality a lot. You will need a 20x or 30x magnifier for this and to check in the result printing if both M and C drops are in the same horizontal line in the CM junction (also look in the top or bottom to check that you don't have an offset of one dot). To make the adjustment you have to remove the Gray Carriage Cover and release both black plastic holders (in the front and in the right side), move the turning or adjust screw like a semi-cycle in the right side, close both black holders, run the print test and check again
2) Then, you have to check if the Ink Volume is correct in the new Print Head, so you have to enter in the INK VOL ADJUST in Head Adjust and run the Print and make the changes. In this case, you have two channels for each color. The goal is to set each channel to print in the same tone or level. If one of them are more lighter or darker, will create some problems in the printing, specially in printing Bi-Directional
3) Then do the Media Comp 2 adjust in Technical Mode
4) Then do the Drop Pos Adjust in Technical Mode and then the Drop Pos Correct in Operation Mode
4) Re-check you media profile is the same as you used before and the same media and media settings like Heaters and do the Media Comp Adjust in Operation Mode
Re-send your file and check if there is improvement
