This is just a quick note to thank everyone in this thread. Helped us at my shop quite a bit when the error showed up out of the blue. Just an added note: in our case our machine had a 2017 pcb and only needed the fiber-optic cable replaced. the date should be printed on the board so that might...

Just a follow up to this thread and problem with a potential solution for other folks in the future. The short answer is we replaced the main capsule filter for the yellow line and after a day or so of ink purges and printing it seems to have leveled out and started printing as expected in the...

We don't actually use paper all that much. We tend to print on canvas, plywood,leatherette and Acrylic. We do have an i1 scanner but have been having some difficulties with Rasterlink using the profiles, but to be fair we are all very new to all this stuff so not ruling out user error at this point.

unfortunately there is enough users on the printer that I can't be 100% that no one has messed with settings but as far as I can tell we are still using defaults for everything. I do agree it seems like a profile get messed up somewhere and we have started looking into icc profiles and all that...

Hey all was wondering if anyone else had this problem before, Our JFX200 suddenly started printing with a lot more cyan showing in the final prints seemingly out of no where. the quality of the print seemed fine as all the lines where nice and sharp just everything looked as if a blue filter...

So I went back and read your set up again and realized its slightly different than what we are using we have a CMYK CCWW so we don't have a printable primer. For our acrylic we apply a primer (adhesion promoter) by hand before printing. I'm not sure about the percentages printable primer if...

As a Newbie with the JFX-200 and uv printing as a whole, I completely agree with the test everything everything advice. I wish I could offer exact settings but a lot of those I'm still learning and what we are using now where set before I started working with the printer. So far with...

I will say that working with their customer service has been an absolute pleasure so far which is one of the big reasons we've wanted to switch over but I also want to be careful since our printer is a older use machine and we are kind of on our own when it comes to repairs and problems so its...

Got an add a while back for Nazdar's 706 series ink that is supposed to be a direct replacement for the Lus 120 Mimaki brand ink. the specs on it seemed okay and the price was eye catching to say the least. Just wondered if anyone has had any experience with it and how durable it is, how close...

That I did keep a close eye on and as far as I can tell it should be flowing in the right direction. After a bit of work it does look like it was just an air bubble that was being extra stubborn.

So embarrassingly I did not know I needed to pull ink through the filter first but in retrospect that makes sense, so bit of a facepalm moment there. Once I did that I got about 75% of the yellow channel printing out ink so that was a large chunk of the problem now to see if I can get the non...

Printer was working fine on Friday when I left the shop, and when I came in Monday and started doing the normal print tests and cleaning in the morning noticed the entire section of yellow was missing in the test. I should note that I did recently change the main capsule filters about 2 weeks...

We ultimately got the recommended filters just to avoid headaches and we only had one five micron filter and we needed two filters for our white setup. Perhaps if we have a really slow week I'll try it in one of the color lines just for fun. :big laugh:

Thank you, all really good things to know.

Has anyone had any experience with switching out their clear tanks for mimaki's printable primer? We've had our printer for about a year and the currant setup is a CYMK 2x clear 2x white and we almost never use clear for anything and are really just dumping money down the drain with it at this...
