  1. Mimaki UCJV-300 Reviews

    Our JV300 overal consumption is 11ml/sq.m. Our two roll UV with KonicaMinolta KM512 heads used 8-9 ml/sq.m , so that 14ml for UCJV is more than we are expected.
  2. How long a DX7 printhead is supposed to last?

    Which type of Mimaki ink? We got two DX7 heads dead caused by BS4 magenta ink. First die for 2 or 3 days, second die a week after that.
  3. Mimaki UCJV-300 Reviews

    We have UCJ300-160 for almost 2 years. Main problem is HUGE ink consumption. It is our 3rd UV printer and I haven't seen that big ink waste. When it is printing, printer spit every 3-4 passes. It is not needed for UV printers, but Mimaki made it that way. After 2 years, real consumption is 14ml...
  4. Digi Print Supplies

    I think they have some troubles now. Never I have to wait so much. Bunch of cleaning swabs take month to deliver. Ordered many times over years, everything came for 1-2 days to Bulgaria.
  5. UJF-6042 MKii opinions?

    We own UJF-3042 MKii, it is faster than our old UJF-3042FX, inks are cheaper, but as out customers note, it prints with little bigger dots than old one, because of different heads. I think that gloss is very nice option. Colors are more vibrant with gloss finish. Lights made prints about 20%...

  8. Mimaki UCJV, cast vinyl, silvering effect after laminating

    I think that UV print always will have silvering after laminate. Also glue doesn't stick very well on top of UV inks.
  9. Heater Question for the experts

    I will try to explain. Just you need to disasemble right side of the printer where display and heater control seats. Then disconect controler and disasemble to see one small onton relay on one edge of electronic board. It is not too difficult,just you need some little experience with soldering iron.

  12. DX4 Head vs DX7 Head?

    Our customers say that our old Roland prints better than new JV300. Also two weeks ago one head stop printing one chanel of magenta so we used only one. We are surprised how better is resolution on small text. I think that this is aligment based problem. About JV5, I never saw first models...
  13. DX4 Head vs DX7 Head?

    Personaly I don't like DX5/DX7 heads. Only advantage is speed on two head based machines. If you have one dead color on DX4 machine, you spent about 500 euro for repair. If you have same on DX7 machine, repair cost much more. Also, aligment of two DX7 heads is nearly impossible. This is based on...

    There is two positions for roller tension. You can put it up and down. Just look in the back of ploter. All rolers must be set in same tension position.
