I recently have been having issues with some nozzles not firing. I have tried all of the cleanings multiple times, nozzle washes, nozzle soaking too, and even wiping the heads with the lint free cloth supplied in the kit all to no avail. Which has brought me to using the nozzle recovery feature...

I have a customer that wants a complex design to be installed onto a portion of his truck. The design has a bunch of small pieces which would make using vinyl and weeding a nightmare. Was curious if anyone has ever printed directly onto clear cast laminate and then laminated it with the same...

Does anyone know how this ink will hold up long term if printed using the "Matte UV" mode onto clear PET film, installed on glass that is not being hit by a substantial amount of direct sun? Our concern is that it could yellow or have other issues we are not aware of. Any insight would be much...

What firmware version do you have? I have v2.9. I believe there is now a v3.0 but when I tried to upload it, the software said to contact Mimaki.

Do you have a specific profile that you use which you can share?

Thank you to all for your recommendations and insight!

1. Client was adamant about having the film installed from the exterior. 2. The tape sticks to the film (VISIUM Dusted Crystal) Best and least expensive cast vinyl dusted crystal you'll find on the market if you're a dealer. The problem is definitely the back of the sign.

Is there a specific Silicone Caulk you'd recommend?

The sign you see in the photo is relatively heavy and keeps falling off after we have tried using a variety of industrial double sided tape options. When we initially removed the signs to install the window film, there seemed to be a clear silicone or caulk that was used to assist in keeping...

Thanks everyone! Looks like Amos will be able to buy lunch today :)
