  1. Head STRIKES... Help???

    This is usually because the material has no body to it. Try lowering the vacum. This can cause prollems on some light material. They want to stick to platen more than feed forward.
  2. new printhead not firing on one side

    You say you have replaced heads before but I did not see that you put the head rank in the printer. I think Mimakis need this input. You could get lucky and replace a head and not put it in and the head still work but you could also have problems.
  3. Paper backing from vinyl..is it biodegradable?

    Recyclable liner For what it is worth. I have a print vinyl from Hexis that has a recyclable liner. It is a kraft paper. It does have a little issue with wrinkling but it is not that bad. I am in South Florida and humidity is a killer. Not all of there vinyls have this liner. I am not...
  4. Lawn mower banding

    Does anyone know the cause and remedy for what I call the "lawnmower banding". This is when you have a large solid and have what loos like a football field with the dark and light stripes. This is not a case of feed adjust banding. I have seen it on other printers before. It only happens on...
  5. Clogged Ink Heads for ValueJet1604

    My first thought would be to check the capping station and pump. I have repaired many caps on the VJ. When you run a cleaning, do you see ink flowing into the waste tank. If not than the best way is to open the right end up and pull ink from the 2 hoses that come out of the pump and go to the...
  6. Toucan LT - Media Feed Issues

    This may seem a little out there but I have a couple customers with Toucan LT's, and this has helped. The pinch rollers actually wander from side to side in there individual craddles. When they move to the side theybind on the side and create resistance. This is why it comes and goes. They have...
  7. Help. Can not open port

    This means you have lost communication between you computer and printer. You could try to ping the printer. If you do not connect, then check the router and cables. If you do not know how to ping the printer IM me.
  8. First time with cleaning cartridges

    it sounds like you were close enough. When you ran the head wash it wanted you to remove the ink carts. It then pumped the ink from the lines. It asked you to put the cleaning carts. in to clean the lines and fill them. Then you turned it off. Did you look at the ink lines. They should have been...
  9. Valuejet 1604 440ml Ink Tank Question

    The 1604 and 1614 are made to use the 440ml. I have used them since day one.
  10. Where are the fuses on Valuejet?

    I have seen this happen many times here in Florida. Unplug the machine and let it sit 5 minutes. Not 1 minute. It will fire back up.
  11. Mutoh ValueJet

    Maybe Mutoh is going to respond to the Roland 64" for $17k with and that includes Versaworks 3 (a complete rip)
  12. Seiko 64s Color Painter

    I sold the seiko for 2 years. It is a workhorse. It is a medium solvent machine, that likes to be run. If you do not have a lot of work for this machine, it can give you headaches. I now sell the Mutoh and it is a much more foregiving machine. It does not waste nearly as mush ink as the Seiko. I...

    I run 50" media but flexi will only allow media to 47.24
  14. Printing 48" on VJ-48 With Flexi

    Does anyone know how to print the full 48" width using the Flexi. The software will only allow the 47.24 media width max. I have seen Onyx allow 48".
  15. Black is Green

    What is happening, the nozzles are touching the inside of the cap or there is something in there touching the bottom of the head. This causes a wicking from one color to the other. This will run back up through the ink lines. This is common if you do the soaking Mutoh reccomends for missing...
  16. BIG Mutoh Problem

    I had a similar problem with our demo VJ-48. It would shut off and not show any signs of life. I checked the fuses and all were good. I tried turning it on after 10 minutes and all was well. (So the pixie dust works faster in South Florida). The next time I unplugged the machine and let it sit 5...
  17. whoa now! what is this? VJ1614?

    I have heard with the vertical cartridges you can not use refillable ink carts. The ink runs through the system.Is this true?
