  1. 1641SR reviews?

    We do. Here's a link to the Mutoh maintenance parts section.
  2. Need Help JFX200 White Ink Problems

    In that case, headstrike is probably right. Might be a bad PCB or environment issue. Doing the cable swap should tell you more about where the issue is. If the white stops spraying and the new color starts to spray, that tells you it's not an ink issue. If the white continues to spray, that...
  3. Need Help JFX200 White Ink Problems

    It's sounding more and more like a head unfortunately.
  4. CJV-150 Cutter scanning nowhere near Crop Marks ??

    Is this job setup to print then cut on it's own or did you print, and then manually tell it to cut? Judging by the video, it seems like the cut job was sent manually and the pointer just started looking for the crop at the origin. In that case you need to set the origin at the first crop mark...
  5. Finecut 9 / Illustrator 2022 incompatability?

    FIneCut hasn't been updated for the latest version of illustrator yet unfortunately.
  6. Mimaki CJV 150 expired ink

    While I agree that erring on the side of caution is usually a good idea, in my experience customers rarely throw ink down the drain whether it's expired or not.
  7. Best place to buy OEM dampers ? Roland VS series

    Give us a call. Our system is bad with international shipping quotes. We can get a manual quote or even better, use your account. Also, the main difference between OEM and aftermarket dual channel dampers is the filter. The OEM ones have laser cut metal and the aftermarket ones are more like a...
  8. Print quality

    I agree with above. Too much ink and it's not curing fast enough. Try another profile and turn the heat up.
  9. What should I do?

    At least in Colorado it's illegal to video someone inside their home without consent. You can capture their front and back yards but any camera pointing directly into a window or similar is illegal.
  10. Fuzzy barcodes

    I'm not familiar with that particular setup but I have run into this with other printers. If you have the option to slow the motor speed down and up the resolution, that should print crisp barcodes in any direction at the cost of speed however.
  11. Mutoh 1204 new printhead no ink

    For sure. The lack of cyan is shifting it towards magenta. You actually have a lot more printing than I realized. Since it's really only the missing cyan, I would suspect a bad damper in this case. Do you see air in the cyan line? Also, it's hard to see if the yellow is printing.
  12. Need Help Ordered new DX6 Did I get a fake or ?

    If you look at the board it will have "IA0460" printed on it. If that's the case, it's a DX7 head and it's the same head used in the Roland VS/XR series or the Mimaki JV150 series or some Mutoh ValueJets. It's basically the universal DX7 head. There was a separate version of the DX7 that had...
  13. Mutoh 1204 new printhead no ink

    That rules out the fuse then. Keep in mind that if you changed the dampers along with the head, the ink naturally receded back to the cartridges. It can take a couple little charges to get it all back. It sounds to me like the station might not be working properly. The most common issue with a...
  14. Mutoh 1204 new printhead no ink

    On a brand new station, if you fill the cap with solution and then pull with a syringe without docking the head, it should flow through easily. If the tube is crushing and no solution comes into the syringe, either the tubes themselves are clogged (not likely on a new station) or something else...
  15. Mutoh 1204 new printhead no ink

    The main board is the largest board on the very far left from the back of the machine. The fuse is on the main board close to the large black heat sink that sticks up off the board. Depending on how old your 1204 is, it's going to be either a soldered on fuse or a socketed one. It's not a glass...
  16. UCJV300-130 Error

    Make sure your Function 3 button isn't stuck down. You're basically booting in firmware update mode instead of standard mode. If the button is not stuck, you might have a main board issue.
  17. Need Help SG-540 Cutting carriage no longer separates from the Print-head carriage

    Sounds like a limit position problem to me. If that adjustment is out of whack, it will cause the head to fail to lock at the home position when the cutter tries to separate. There are a few YouTube videos showing the procedure.
  18. Customers Not Planning Ahead is Costing Me $$$

    People get a whole lot more patient when you charge a rush fee.
  19. Strange blue random lines of varying width showing up in the same area

    These random patterns are caused by a short in the head signal circuit. If you've changed the cables, the only thing left really is the head itself, or the main board. I usually like to air dust the terminals that the cables plug into just to rule out and debris causing the short. The head...
  20. BN-20 INK CARTRIDGE ERROR NEW ECO-SOL MAX INKS

    I don't know about the BN20 but Mutoh did something similar. If you upgraded the firmware on your 1204 it would take the ability to read the 440 chips. Mutoh uses the same cartridge tech as Roland so I wouldn't be surprised if that's the case.
