Hello, does anyone have the latest firmware from the Mimaki CJV30-130. I have problems with the ink level display and would like to update the firmware. Currently I have the 3.10

Go fast, turn left.
Did you check on Mimaki's website? Most of the stuff you need is on the Downloads page.

Ink level display won't be fixed by Firmware. The system is very primitive and only guesses at how much ink is being used and then subtracts that from the 440mL chip. If you are ending up with unused ink in the cartridges, it usually means your maintenance station is bad. If your cartridges are saying they are empty when you install a new one, your pack end sensor is bad. Those are two main issues I see with the ink systems. What is your issue?

Yes you can put that board into your machine. If the CJV-130 board is completely dead you will need to contact Mimaki USA and get your original parameter file. Then you just upload the parameter file to the CJV-60 board and it should switch over to a 130. It will also be set to the default settings so you will have to re-do all alignments etc.
