The inserts in the caps are the stainless mesh type. The pumps were purchased from digiprint and i would say there not mimaki parts, Could be wrong, no way of telling. Would overseal or too tight of a seal of the rubber on the cap to the head cause this type of problem? True enough the...

Hi, Just changed the caps recently, Think i am getting a good seal as the syringe pulls back when pressure is applied. Also changed the O-Rings at the damper end but can't see any ink split anywhere. I am 99% sure its all gone into the waste as it was almost full. Just emptied it about 2...

Hi, Mimaki jv3160s flushing alot of ink down the waste line. Think it has sucked a full 440ml cyan, about half magenta and some light cyan almost overnight. Any ideas what would cause this.

Hey guys, Well everything worked out not to bad. Lost a few nozzles in the process but gained more. The new capping station arrived on monday and sure enough when compared with my old cap you can see that the springs were shot. Just a shame it took them so long to deliver these parts...

Is it critical i need a 50x loupe for alignment or would i get away with a 20x or 30x. Would something like this do the job? http://www.amazon.com/Maxi-Aids-UltraOptix-Linen-Tester-Loupe-Magnifier/dp/B00076NVLM Hard to find a 50x. Also... Printer going to be down for a few days.. Whats the...

Ending up cutting the bottom off a thinners tin. Empty and cleaned of course. Any you guys have any documentation/walkthrough on how to setup slant and alignment.. Suppose i going to have to be doing this since i removed the heads.. That butter glass sounds about right for that alright! All...

Hi Mike, Don't have any spares laying about and parts should fingers crossed be here tuesday. But heads are removed from printer with the magenta manifold broken. Would my post above work you think?

Just thinking....Dangerous that! Could i push cleaning solution into the the heads at manifold and cap or clamp that end and keep the heads sitting in solution. Would this have the same effect?

Hi, Heads are removed from printer. How would you say would be the best way to keep them soaked?. I have flushed them out with cleaning solution, is this not enough?.
