  1. Another mutoh issue, waste tank filled up overnight

    More than likely the cap inner is touching the print head and making it wick the ink through the head. If I remember the black and magenta are on the same head so this is probably the issue. SC
  2. JV33 dirty yellow every day

    Personally I would replace the cap top and check the pump is pulling properly and their are no blocked lines in the pipes too and from the pump. SC
  3. Shop Drawings ?

    Oh dear scale drawings. I had a headache with the local planning last year who ended up being absolutely useless. I would send them a scale drawing and then they would print it smaller on their A4 printer and could not understand why it was was not scaling up to the correct size. Scream.... it...
  4. Help with Mutoh VJ1614

    Daniel This could be a F2 fuse blown on the main board. If this fuse blows it will not print. The fuse blows to protect the main board and is normally caused by a fault in the head or head cable. It's a fiddly job but is DIY-able as the fuse is soldered to the board and is very very small. SC
  5. New VS Old..

    Yes I read that correctly Wayne but it still confused me which one was the new design! Or maybe it was a trick question to see if we are awake. I guess the main issue is with the client as they can get stuck on a design or colours and no matter what you do they will not change. My input on this...
  6. New VS Old..

    Which one is which? Design on the right is more ledgible from a distance perspective. SC
  7. how can i make this bigger and not look like crap?

    I have a customer who wants exactly what yours does. Except they have heavy plant machinery. I have moved him onto wrapping the counterweight rears of diggers but he too would like it bigger all the time. And to be real honest some of these machines are very awkward and very difficult to wrap...
  8. Any worth to a Mutoh VJ 1204A that's been unplugged

    If it is unplugged and out of ink show them the cost of the parts that HAVE to be replaced... Print Head. Head Cable Dampers Maintenance Station And a full set of inks. Then tell them the longer it sits the more damage it does. It's definitley worth more than a $100 as that is greedy and...
  9. VJ-1628 printer test print all black blobs

    Possible head cable issue. SC
  10. Cyan problem

    Have you also changed the head cable when replacing the head? SC
  11. Latest edge lit project...

    I would like a tutorial on this also. Looks spectacular SC
  12. Relettering a RV with original how much you sell that ?

    Walk away from this job, make an excuse, just anything as this is going to be the worst job you have ever taken on. Removal of the existing graphics will be hard enough, which is made even worse by the usual thin original paintwork and the textures of the panelwork on this type of vehicle. Not...
  13. Nozzle check - BLACK on Value Jet 1604

    That looks like a lot of deflected nozzles, in fact I have never seen so many deflections and no blockages on a single colour. Firstly is the head physically clean, as fluff and other debris can get onto the head if not kept clean. Has their been recently a very bad head strike as this can cause...
  14. JV3 printing colors in wrong places

    This is a capping problem as Black and Magenta are on the same head. The ink has wicked (if their is such a word) when the head has been parked. I would check that the pump is pulling correctly. Also if their is a pool of ink in the cap this will be creating this or the head is touching the mesh...
  15. Grey Wrap has turned Purple

    Greys are hardest to hit and probably any slight fade in any of the colours applied will change the colours darastically. On a similair note. I carried out an install of some gold metalic acrylic stand off letters onto a cladded building last month. The job looked great on install, but I passed...
  16. 2015 CorelDRAW International Design Contest entries are in!!!

    STEE-EYE-UNNING... Amazing Work. SC
  17. Dirt/dust on prints.

    Just what I was thinking so I have ordered new ones. SC
  18. Mutoh VJ1304 not printing Magenta...

    I bought one of these exactly two years ago from digiprint. Item was as good as the original (in fact the only difference is the wiper is a bit stiffer than the original, but easily replaced). It is still working perfectly, but I do keep it spotless and once a week flood the cap with cleaning...
  19. Dirt/dust on prints.

    We have had our Valuejet 1604 from new back in 2007 and it still is going strong! Over the last 2/3 months I have seen an excessive amount of debris/dust/dirt on our prints. I was at a loss where it was coming from until last week and it seems to be coming of the rubber rollers which clamp the...
  20. Green tint in print

    It will be a RIP and colour issue. Sometimes greys are very hard to hit bang on. And when you have hit that colour another will change. SC
