My most used printhead is the lc-lm with 2700ml, the other ones are less than 1000ml since they have been failing about 1000-2500ml. I swapped all the expired intermediate cartridges to new ones, so at the moment everything is new (we don't use 3l tanks)

Hey guys, hope you're going well. I'm writing here today since we're getting tired of our hp latex, there's no way we can keep it printing the same colors more than 1 month. We have made lot of profiles, from the rip (ONYX) and from the printer's onboard profile creator. We know how to make...

Yes, everything has been changed.

Hey guys! We had some problems with the old printhead of our mimaki jv 33 so we thought that updating to a brand new one would be the solution. I bought it and changed it, with no problems, and nozzle test was perfect. We went on vacation the week after that, and when we came back, the printhead...

that’s on the cjv 150? people that I know that makes motocross graphics like me, are very happy with that one as a first printer

that’s nice! it’s what I tried with flexi and onyx, but no luck, printer wasn’t printing custom channels (changed chips, it should have worked). I’ve just changed to cmyk again, but will check ergosoft,

yeah, I know. the idea is to add orange and other color (need orange the most) for motocross graphics, so the only option is using lc and lm mode. the problem is that I changed the parameter on the printer and it’s still in 2x cmyk.

Hey guys! I'm still trying to convert my jv33 from 2x cmyk to 8 colors. Already tried on flexi, but it doesn't have the option. Now I'm trying with onyx thrive. I've made a new media profile for this printer with custom ink channels. CMYK+Orange+Red+Green+Light Black. When I try to print a...

how do you treat it like a dumb printer? can’t manage to set it like that

as it doesn’t happen when printing on paper, I guess it’s not an electronic failure. tomorrow I will print the same job multiple times as you said me, to check if it changes the length. the thing will be to know what of the possibilities you said, it’s the one causing the problem

what lenght would be enough?

I think there's some issue in any part of the printer, since I told you, it does a different error every time. I will check rollers and make all the calibrations to see if I can solve it. If not, I guess I will have to play with size compensation. Thank you guys, will let you know how this finishes.

Thanks for the answer, Frank. My doubt is why vinyl is printed so short, if paper is printed perfectly. Also, it’s not always the same deviation, some times it gets 0,6 cm, other time it can get 0,3,… (same length file and material)

Hey guys! We’re going to change our printhead so I think it’s time to solve this problem. When we print on vinyl, it prints shorter than it should. This wasn’t a problem since we didn’t need perfect length prints, so we reduced our cut path and it fitted correctly. Now that we print...

Thank you guys for the answers, we will try this week. My idea is adding green, red, orange and light k. I will use orange and light k from mimaki (ss21 ink for cjv150), green and red from roland. Thinking about onyx production house for this printer. Will let you know how this goes. Thank you, Alex
