  2. Looking for a new printer....need your opinions

    Just scrapped an old JV3 I had in storage for if my Mutoh died. I'm currently thinking about just staying with Mutoh. As after 12 years of ownership and only one head change it has been a brick with only minimal maintenance and still prints as good as the day I bought it. My ex-boss upgraded to...

  5. Question Strange Cyan lines when printing yellow with Flexi

    I don't think that is a software or RIP issue. Could be a head cable or head going bad.

  7. Need Help Mutoh 1624 Creating weird color bands

    Either a dying head or cabling or an encoder issue. If it appears in the same position all the time, it's an encoder issue. SC
  8. Question Nozzle Check Issue from a Newbie

    Remove plastic cover on the head and remove the bar with two screws that the dampers are held in with. The dampers simply lever out (be careful not to damge the input nipples on the head. Simply unscrew the line by hand and refit with new seals. Pull ink through with a syringe to half fill...
  9. Touching guide plates

    I have managed to file about 1mm of the raised part of the guide plate and this has solved the issue. Too scared to print without guide plates... I am going to have to replace all the head carriage bearings, which is probably over due as the printer is now 12 years old!!! Just imagine how many...
  10. Touching guide plates

    Their is a metal strip to the left of the print head. It is definitley hitting this on the way back. I am a bit concerned about removing the guide plates, if the material has a high spot at the end will this cause a crash?!!!! Would it be an idea to sand a little of the height of the guide...

  15. Touching guide plates

    In the last month I have had a slight tick as the print head comes over the guide plate. I do most of my printing with the head on the high setting but this afternoon I dropped it and it will catch it and move the guide plate across. It looks as if it is not the head that is touching but the...
  16. Signlab Changes Colors

    One of the main reasons why I don't use Signlab for Printing. The built in RIP is way to complex and expects you to tweek and make your own profiles. Most RIPs have a generic set of profiles that will come close to printing decent matches, sadly you will spend months getting it almost right and...
  17. Wrapping a Silver Vehicle

    I have a customer who has a fleet of vehicles that will require a half wrap on his silver vehicles. The colours fade from Blue to the silver of the vehicle half way along. My thoughts were to print this onto clear wrap and laminating it and applying to give the effect that this fades from the...
  18. VJ-1204 not printing all colors

    I have bought machines of sellers before saying that they were working the previous week and they were blocked solid and had obviously been unused for a very long time. If the machine had been flushed it should still have cleaning fluid in the lines etc. Also pulling ink through or pushing it...
