Yep. So I come into work this morning and go to start up our Turbo. HMMM the screen is blank. Look at the PC and it's not on but the switch is. So I look at the backup battery and it's flashing red. OH NO. Call Inca. troubleshoot for about 2 hours. I find out the PC power supply went out...

if it's the slider board, wouldn't en error show up on the screen?

Merritt, I already tried that. no success. thanks though

The ink is in the head. I see it in the capping station screen when I run cleans and fillups. It's also pumping through BTW, I have a jv3 160sp. I even switched cable ribbons from LcLm to CY. When I did this my Lc was firing in the test draw but the yellow printed a solid line forward, then...

are u referring to the Head ID?

Can anyone help me with this? I have installed many a printhead with no problems. Today, I had to install a (LcLm) head. First I turned to main power off, installed the head then put new dampers on, pulled ink into the dampers, did a couple of ink fillups and cleans, went to do a test draw and...

Did you do a normal print adjust or a print adjust 2?

I agree with Rick. It will work depending on the machine. I tried it on our Zund 215+ flatbed before it was demolished and it worked great. The downfall was the colors weren't as vibrant as screen printing but it did hold up

Which Mimaki model do you have?

there's a company called "solvent cartridges".(solventcartridges.com). they are located in Canada. They will give you 50 cents per cartridge and free shipping. the minimum shipping order is 40 cartridges. We use them for our Mimaki inks. I just fill a box and ship it out.

Welcome Copy Cat, we are also located in Michigan (grand rapids). Nice to see another Michigander here

The Act II/FR (fire rated) worked great on our Flatbed. I also tried it on our Mimaki JV3. To my surprise, it printed awesome because it was only spec'd for UV or DyeSub. A little faded but I think it's because it is similar to polyoxford, which also has a faded print outcome. If anyone...

Since we are going "green", I've found a lot of media to print on. I just received Act II from Aurora Textiles. If you do not know what this is, it's a 100% recycled fabric/banner made from plastic bottles. I'm going to try it on our UV flatbed. If anyone else has tried this material, let me...

Sorry, our Zund 215+ bit the dust, literally. A van blasted through our wall and ran into our printer, ouch

IF its affordable, I would suggest Inca flatbeds. Great machines. Have you seen the Inca Onset? WOW. way out of my range awesome machine though

Another downfall on Pantone chart swatch books is there will never be a book specifically design for digital printing. There are too many variances in digital printing. Some can replace spot colors in there RIP software which is good but sometimes the colors do not match exactly to the PMS...

welcome to the forum from MI

For UV? Inca with sericol inks. Great combination!! Sericol makes two types of inks for the Incas. We use UviJet EI which works grrrreat(lol). They also make a more flexible ink for the Incas. I've heard it's really good and not as brittle.
