  1. Mimaki maintenance mode

    You just need to hold it until you hear a beep while it's booting. Usually right about the time it shows the firmware version.
  2. Need Help Mutoh VJ 628 damper replacement

    Instruction 7 says: "It refers to 3.8.15 Replacing Head and remove Valve Head from Head." That's their way of saying you have to remove the head. Basically the head cover can't come off without removing the head which is super annoying. I know a lot of people who just never put the head cover...
  3. Machine Reading "Y over current Ave" when in use.

    Ah ok so it sounds like it is more of an issue than just the lock. I would clean the encoder strip, clean and grease the rail the head carriage slides on, and look for anything that could cause drag on the head carriage. Is the machine loud when it prints?
  4. How to create richer colours in Flexi and how to ake it applicable to all prints

    You might also have him look into using Pantone colors and then using the Color Mapping tool in Flexi. You basically choose a Pantone, send it to Flexi, and it prints out a range of colors around that Pantone. Then you just choose which one looks the best to you and Flexi will print that color...
  5. Machine Reading "Y over current Ave" when in use.

    Overcurrent errors are almost never the motor themselves. It just so happens that in this case I've seen the exact situation happen on CJV30s multiple times. Boot the machine up in parameter input mode, power on while holding the left and right arrow keys. It will boot in system parameter mode...
  6. Help!! colors on flexi

    It looks like what happens when you paste an RGB image into a CMYK color space. Try opening the image instead of pasting it. Flexi should determine the color space from the file that way and it should look like in Corel. Could be something else but that's what popped in my head first .
  7. One Way Glass Vinyl

    Maybe there is some new material that I don't know of but as far as I know, all one way window material requires one room to be dark and the other to be bright to work.
  8. Icc profile

    Here's a link to the JV33 profile center at Mimaki. Just choose the proper ink set and color setup and it will give you a bunch of profiles.
  9. How to remove ink from Roland ink cartridges that still contain ink?

    I get those ads all the time and I'm only 36 :oops:
  10. How to remove ink from Roland ink cartridges that still contain ink?

    It's very common with this type of ink system. Any Epson based Mimaki, Roland, and Mutoh use the same system and I get people asking this question fairly often. It seems to get worse as time goes by. I definitely have seen machines that suck every last drop out of the cartridge so it's totally...
  11. How to remove ink from Roland ink cartridges that still contain ink?

    The cartridges can be flagged as empty in two ways. With the plastic flag as mentioned above, or the machine has estimated that it's empty and flagged the chip on it's own. The machine guesses how much ink has been run through the head based on how many dots have been fired etc. It also keeps...
  12. Rasterlink 7 errors

    Sounds like system parameter number 32 is set to 4 instead of 7. I'd have your dealer come back and take a look.
  13. Problem: Anyone tried latest FineCut 2.4 with Corel Draw 2022?

    Are those Corel version on the same computer? The communication tab only shows available connections if the plotter is turned on and plugged into the computer running FineCut.
  14. Rasterlink 7 errors

    I wouldn't be surprised it has something to do with Parallels. The usb ports tend to turn off or switch to the mac side of things randomly. Any errors that have to do with "locating and printing" just mean it can't open the port.
  15. Rasterlink 7 errors

    I've heard some people have had issues with ethernet. If you can, try USB and see if that fixes the issue. You also want to check to make sure your computer isn't set to sleep after a certain amount of time. Sometimes it doesn't go all the way to sleep but will turn off just the hard drive or...
  16. How to create richer colours in Flexi and how to ake it applicable to all prints

    There should be a button in the bottom right corner of the job setup window called, "Set as default". If you click that, it saves whatever settings you currently have selected and applies them to any file coming in. You can also create a preset in the same window. It's at the top left and looks...
  17. Banners Across Road

    Yeah I seem to remember someone made a video about this and the slits ended up weakening the overall structure so much that it offset any benefits to wind reduction.
  18. 6042 Mkiie Error

    It's a problem with the head circuit. You can try unplugging the head cable and reinstalling but if you're under warranty, I'd let the tech do it. There's a possibility you need a new head or head bower board.
  19. Need Help Speckled printing?

    The nozzle check picture is pretty blurry but it doesn't look like you have a ton of deflections which is what I would have thought at first. I'd run the head alignments to make sure everything is tight but unfortunately it seems like one or more bad heads. You might also look at the room...
  20. Anybody use Mac?

    Oh for sure. I'm not bashing Apple products. Just saying they're made to be premium products and should be compared to others in it's same category.
