Hello everyone,
We purchased a new JV33-130 printer three years ago and had been using without it any issues, a year ago the head was replaced due to substantial damaged caused by one of the metal substrate holders. Recently, after doing a test draw, I noticed one of the channels was not firing at all while all 7 other channels were printing at 100%. I would then run a 'hard clean' maintenance routine and that channel showed as firing above 80%; in one occasion I repeated the test draw several times and the channel gradually stopped firing. This lead to believe that what it seemed a firing was actually backwash from the 'hard clean'.
I swapped dampers and the channel still not fires. Any suggestions as to what may be the issue? I called Mimaki's tech support, they suggested doing the damper swap, which I had already done, then they mentioned it might be some type of electrical issue. Has anyone experienced similar issues?
Any help on this will be highly valued.
