  1. Equipment Redundancy - Bad idea to rely on one printer?

    This is why right to repair is so important. You were down 13 days and you could have probably put that cable in yourself.
  2. Wrong inks

    Eco Sol Max 3 inks are compatible with the following machines: VersaSTUDIO BN-20 Series Printer/Cutters – CMYK + White and Metallic Ink** VersaCAMM VS-i Printer/Cutters – CMYKLcLm + Light Black, White and Metallic Ink SOLJET XR-640 Printer/Cutter – CMYKLcLm + Light Black, White and Metallic Ink...
  3. Question New Printer Recommendations

    Oh gotcha. Yeah solvent white isn't the best. The UCJV300 is usually a good machine but it matters who the supplier and tech is for sure.
  4. Question New Printer Recommendations

    The UCJV300 was an oversell for what you're doing. Get a solvent printer. Mimaki JV150, Mutoh XPJ1641SR Pro are two good options.
  5. 1324x issues strike yet again

    Mutoh's smart card system definitely fails more often than other brands I work on. The main problem I see is that 1 bad/misaligned card can cause the entire system to error out. They did do a firmware update that made it so you could have 2 cards fail and it would allow you to continue anyway...
  6. Need input on which kind of Computer is the best to use for Designing.

    We call it a, "Loose nut behind the keyboard." I agree. Something has to be not setup properly or some setting is off. Is this the age old issue of plugging the HDMI cable into the integrated graphics port on the main board and not the graphics card maybe?
  7. Storage of Vinyl Upright

    Check these guys out - https://www.image1impact.com/products-categories/media-racks/ I've used their stuff and it works well. Should at least give you an idea of your options. Also, just in case you don't know, you can store vinyl on it's side, you just don't want to store it on a flat surface...
  8. Problem with DX5

    That's a pretty common issue I've seen with the older JV33 and CJV30 models. I would change the cap top slider or just the whole station entirely. The slider is usually the culprit though. The pegs that slide back and forth wear out and cause the cap top not line up correctly and it always makes...
  9. So this was a first ...

    AndersHerp's next post will be, "Is there a windows driver for my printer?"
  10. Can anyone do fine printing?

    Yup, highest resolution file with properly set ink levels, slowest motor speed available, and perfect head alignments.
  11. Happy Halloween everyone

    Trunk or treating is ruining the old trick or treating. People drive to a parking lot and do it there instead. It's easier to do but kills the magic.
  12. Fine Detailed printing

    Use the highest resolution color profile you have available, slow the motor speed down to the slowest speed (usually a setting in the rip), and make sure your head alignments are perfect. Or have procolorgraphics do it.
  13. Mimaki JFX200-2513 Printer is missing entire yellow color

    They're located in the ink supply box where most of the pumps in the machine are. They are black cylinder like parts and each channel has one for a total of 8. Looks like the picture below:
  14. Mimaki JFX200-2513 Printer is missing entire yellow color

    Anytime a single channel drops like that on this model I check the air pressure system to make sure it's within spec, and then run an air purge. If that doesn't do the trick, everything mentioned above sub tanks etc. That being said, I do see fairly often that people don't change the primary...
  15. Nozzle wash not filling

    It's ok to manually fill the cap top with a syringe and cleaning solution if you need to get it done quick. As for the reason it's not filling, you might have an air lock in the tube. The solution isn't pumped and just uses gravity to fill the cap so if there is an air bubble in there, it can...
  16. Grimlite

    And now Fellers just closed shop here in Denver. I know Milano Digital here in town just picked up Arlon if that helps.
  17. Need Help Parts list mimaki cjv150

    The big spring under the cap is M800864. I have some in stock surprisingly. They aren't on the site but if you email us, I can get you a quote. support@solventinkjet.com
  18. Using Vinyl End Pieces Roland BN20a

    Oh gotcha. The way most Rolands work is there is a sensor right behind the pinch rollers that gets tripped when the media ends and allows light in. When the sensor trips, it tells the machine that's where it needs to stop. So when you load a sheet it should roll it out until the sensor trips...
  19. Transparent backgrounds on PNG's..............................................................................................................

    If it were me I would bring it into illy, copy and paste in front, live trace and play around with the settings until it looks like I want, and then expand and clean up any stray points and use the remaining vector as the cut line. But I'm sure there's an easier way to do it these days. It's...
