Ok this makes sense. thank you! the deflections are in the same area of the test print each time

I think it does make sense. you're saying- switch the black damper with the blue and see if it still deflects in the black. but it the blue starts deflecting it is something with the head or capping station? not the damper? but if the black still deflects its an ink or damper issue?

I haven't tried switching inks, only switching different black formulas made by Arcolor. I currently am not in a position to switch, since my machine is mandated from our headquarters in Germany and our inks match the color of the inks we use in production. Thanks for the tips though!

The wiper was replaced in March of this year when the print head was put in, same with all of the dampers. The dampers were going to be my next step. I have someone that comes in every 6 months + to do an overall check and they usually replace the dampers at that time. I am using water based...

Thank you! I did not know this. Can you elaborate a little or explain in different words by what you mean with "It just sets a base point for the user menu drop position which is what actually aligns the drop position." ​Thanks!

Hello All, I am curious what anyone's drop position value you use. Service mode--#Adjust->Head Adjust->Drop Position->Hi Speed->Fine->Fine y-bi My current value is at 21.0 I replaced my head in March this year and before my setting was near 15. I thought it was odd I would have to adjust it...

Thank you for your replies! I should have mentioned before, I am printing on a paper with a primer and water based inks with my Mimaki JV33. none the less, your comments regarding vinyl are still informative and helpful. Do you know the type of unit or machine you use to keep constant...

Advantages to 50% humidity Hello, Are there any advantages to having a constant 50% humidity where the printer is besides paper curl, keeping ink from drying in the printhead, etc? My office has a climate control unit that does not fully work to keep it at 50%rh. It is usually 30-35%...

Does anyone know when the proper time to replace the mist sponge is (Red arrow in picture)? In 2014 I have replaced it twice and washed it out several times when I start getting ink drops on my print from a droplet forming on the edge of the print head and this usually makes the situation better...

ICC profile Is it necessary or beneficial to remake the profile of each paper type used every 4-6 weeks? I have been told by my colleagues that i am supposed to, but I can not find anywhere on here or in my research that says that it is necessary. Can anyone help?

Here are some pictures of the wavyness i was talking about. you can see the darker angled lines.

uni-directional I know this was an old thread, but in case anyone in the future is reading this, I wanted to give my input also. I was having problems getting a wavy print or rainbow type effect also. Im sure this would happen with all prints, but it was more apparent in the darker prints. The...

I have this problem too. I also have deflected nozzles in my print head. I have done numberous nozzle washes, cleaning the head with a cleaner soaked sponge and changing the fliters/dampers above the head to see if this would bring the nozzels back to the correct position, nothing has worked...
