!NCU SENSOR LV LOW MIMAKI JV150

[Gary1]

Hi everyone. Turned printer on and no errors. Had to run vinyl thru to measure, vinyl had gone on floor and picked up dust and went through
printer platen. Not sure if this caused this message to happen. What does this message mean and what would be the fix.
Thanks in advance.

This is the screen.

Might be ink on the Nozzle Check Unit LED or receiver, can just disable it to bypass the code. Most people turn it off since it takes a while to run nozzle checking and they don't like the added print time.

Thanks for replying Smoke-Jaguar. I did try blowing air in the region around the capping station and the message is still there. I'd like to know where this led sensor is located so I can clean it.
Does anyone know where I can find this sensor?

The NCU is the black slot sensor between the capping station and the platen.

Ok, I'll check this out. Today the message didn't come back. Maybe I cleaned it when I blew it out with air yesterday and powering down the printer reset it.
Thanks for the reply!
