I tried Mineral Spirits seemed to work OK. I found on amazon - Motsenbockers Lift Off - works good. Doesnt seem to affect the luster finish on the Laminate - its water based. I have af ew others coming next week including the Cooley Magic. Gonna try all of them and see what works best.

We have an R2000. We overprint on to the belt all day long. It has not caused any issues. It is an easy clean as well if it is cleaned within a day or 2. Spray with Acetone, let it sit for a few minutes then scrub with a nail brush type scrub brush or Lint free towel

Over the past 18+ years, we have had (2) Mimaki printers & (7) Mutoh Printers. Mutoh Printers are Work horses and very user friendly.

Take a look at the Dies. There may be a small chip in one of them.
