  1. What, exactly, makes sign people qualified to design anything?

    This is a great topic and has sure hit an honest nerve with a lot of us. One aspect of commercial sign design that is mostly missed is marketing skills (missing the forrest for trees scenario). The ultimate goal for the customer is generating interest through a message. We need to understand...
  2. What Hammer Drill do I Buy

    Ditto here, however I just bought a Rockwell rotary hammer drill which does a great job for short field jobs. It is only 12v but does a far better job than all other 18v hammer drills we have had (Bosch, Dewalt, porter cable, hitachi) If you are only needing to do 8-12 holes it works great. I...
  3. UGH. New Problems.

    Has the environment changed where the printer is located (Humidity/temp) It looks like 2 separate issues though. The blotchy print sure looks like a heat/humidity problem but the banding could be starvation. Make sure the black damper has ink in it. If there is an air leak the test print may...

  6. Best Purchase of 2011?

    New M&R Auto..., just got to get it spinning all day in 2012.:clapping: Oh wait, new head installed on the JV33 (does it count since it was yesterday)
  7. JV 33 not printing any yellow

    Having the identical issue with mine. Ink flow diagnostics are all good from the head up and the cap down so I am replacing the head Tuesday. If you switch the magenta dampers with the yellow ones (leave the ink lines connected) what happens after a cleaning do a test draw? If you get yellow...
  8. Bordeaux Ink from N Glantz. Good or Bad? Why?

    I have been using the Bordeaux inks for the JV33 for a couple of years with great results. They had an issue with the chips not registering in the machine but no problem in the last 6 months. I would recommend them.
  9. Anyone do anything like this??

    Funny, it is the guy that made the plane that is telling us it won't work.....
  10. yellow miss firing

    I am not completely familiar with your printer but I recently chased the identicalproblem on my Mimaki and it ended up getting fixed by replacing the o rings on both the top and bottom of the damper. I replaced everything from the ink valves to to cap station (except the head). A $2 o ring...

  14. JV33 Cyan banding, Just about replaced everything!

    Yeah Artbot, I had thought about doing the crossover to eliminate completely the entire system. Not real thrilled about running different color through the line but looks like thats next. I have a 6 color Roland and I just recently replaced a head on it so I feel your pain too. Thanks. BTW...
  15. JV33 Cyan banding, Just about replaced everything!

    Hey guys... I have searched all the threads I could and can't seem to find a similar issue to the one I am experiencing. 3 year old Mimaki JV33-160 (lightly used) I started printing a large area of cyan (4ft x 40ft section) and noticed slight banding. I stopped it and ran a test draw and a...
