  3. Trying to get the right color!

    NikkiD yes you do have a lot of work ahead of you good luck to you. Follow what sightline said and be prepaired for it to take most of the day and perhaps the next as well. We all or most of us have made this mistake and paid for it (but we learned alot in the process) so welcome to the...
  4. Mimaki JV33-160 - missinG yellow

    If the yellow goes away again on you I would change the dampners as i have had this happen to me several times (especially with the cheaper dampners non OEM) they dont seal as tightly on the head nipples as the OEM ones do and they will give you problems. I ordered 12 new dampners once as...
  5. Trying to get the right color!

    if you dont have a spectrometer to read it then you are going to have to print alot of swatches and even then you may not get the exact color but perhaps close. Also and i hate to tell you this but the green you are trying to match may be out side the spectrum for your printer which means you...
  6. New Print head adjustment

    You need to adjust the black head to be correct in angle then align the others to it. I have always owned mimakis but most of these printers are the same or very close. when you adjust the slant/angle it is difficult to see and many people (who are not familiar with calibrations) will make...
  7. Window Perforated Vinyl

    +1 for Josh plus he is a merchant member
  8. Color Sampling Device rental??

    I dont know about onyx as far as building a profile but if it has the capabilities built into the software like flexi does then all you need is a spectrophotometer. You can pick up a used i1 from ebay for $600 or less and that is all you need to build profiles if onyx has the capabilities...

  10. Nozzle head cleaner

    you can buy liters of triangle flush from whoever you get your triangle inks from. You can also mix your own but that is at your own risk. If you want to mix your own use the search feature on the forum it has been posted.
  11. Mimaki JV33-160 - missinG yellow

    open the switch in the back behind the cartridges for both yellow carts (you can do this at the console but I like to just take some clening swab sticks and prop the the little plastic piece up so I know it is open) hook 2 syringes to the 2 yellow dampners at the same time draw ink into the...
  12. What make adjustments after replacing the print head?

    well from the looks of that print you have problems. is that a new head as it looks bad. I dont see any yellow in the prints and you are missing a lot of nozzles. have you done a head soak if not do that when you start the head soak just turn the printer off on the front and the side and...
  13. Flexi and Creation Pcut CTN-630

    you can add a grounding wire those plotters are bad about static and noise especially when you are using the USB port. To ground it hook a wire to one of the screws on the bottom of the machine then hook the other end to a good ground (like the screw that holds the outlet cover on) try that...

  16. Flexi and Creation Pcut CTN-630

    You are running out of memory a friend had one of those and had the same problem. There is a way in flexi to set it up so that the plotter pulls info instead of flexi pushing info to the plotter. (forgot how maybe a flexi guy can answer) If you are running several big jobs (big in memory not...
  17. Hexis distributors in USA

    As for the Hexis wrap material I like it the only downside is it has a higher initial tack then some of the others but other than that its worked out fine for me. Now the chrome stuff well its chrome wrap material its expensive and the biggest pain in the @#$ to install but you can charge much...
