Hi Everyone, I am using a Mimaki Jv3 160-SP and printing on Magic 212 gram wallpaper. I am having an issue with ink "spotting" or "mottling" - white spots in dark shades of color, almost like either the ink is almost puddling or the paper is not absorbing correctly. I have tried 8 pass first---...

Help! Came in today, files that I have printed over and over before, now the filters are not applying. We already have them applied in preflight and have not changed anything in the profiles. We did not change any settings in media manager either..... Tried rebooting machine and computer to no...

Hi All, We are looking to buy a printer with pretty good color output, just to print on standard paper, that is at least 36" wide. We are using a HP Designjet 500 right now and the color is less than vibrant. We mainly use it for black and white elevations in our office area, which it is more...

Hi Everyone, Ive been having some problems lately with my Mimaki JV3-160S, I've been getting an Error 20 I/F Board 01 and it beeps. I reboot it, and it comes back. Sometimes it does this while printing, other times when it is just sitting idle. I've had 3 or 4 of these just in one day, and I...

Hi All, Im running an Mimaki JV3 250 SP solvent printer, we use Avery MPI 2920 vinyl ( used to be be mpi 3000) . We do use an overlam but it is a cheap ecomonical overlam. We do indoor signage.... My question is, how long would a digi print last outside with this kind of vinyl? I already know...

Hi All, We have been using Avery products for years, and occasionally get something that comes off of its sign. Lately, its been more and more. We use the Avery MPI 2920, and we print on Mimakis. We overlam the vinyl with a matte UV Laminate to protect it. It seems all the things we have...

Hello Everyone, We had an unfortunate incident at the shop here; one of the material rolls fell over and grazed the light cyan ink cartrdige that was installed into the printer. Now it wont recognize the ink that is installed. I already know the sensor inside the machine is bad, because I tried...

Hi all, We purchased another mimaki and upgraded to Onyx 10. All of our old profiles will no longer work with the Onyx 10 because they are too old. I started using a new profile on my vinyl and it looks great, colors are bright and cheery. When i switch to my Magic 212 gram posterpaper however...

Hey, this is probably incredibly easy but can't seem to figure it out. Im trying to install a 2nd printer in onyx. We already have a Jv3 160s and we just bought a Jv3 160sp. In "configure printer " I can change the number of printers to 2, but it just adds a new printer with the same name as my...

Hello everyone, I have a Mimaki Jv3 160s and it is doing a few weird things. We just replaced a printhead, and all the dampers as well as a pump in the last 2 weeks. All the printheads seem to be firing fine, and I did a printhead adjust alignment and text is sharp. Now on long run items, the...

Hello all, My Mimaki Jv3 160 has been doing some odd banding. It almost looks to me like ink starvation, but I am not quite sure. We have had this printer for 5 years and it is a great workhorse. We run it all day and most of the time we run it overnight. We havent had any major problems with...
