The thing about the whole PC vs Mac debate is that PC can mean a junk HP from Best Buy with all of the lowest quality parts, or a top of the line self built PC with all the bells and whistles. People with experience can build a PC with Mac specs for around the same cost or cheaper in some cases...

Make sure to hit the, "Insert" button when adding a link. Might be the issue.

I assume because it's new, it's the plus version? If that's the case, here is a link to the profile collection on Mimaki's site. They are ICC files but sometimes they don't load into other RIPS but it's worth a shot. And yes, dual CMYK is still considered 4 color.

I'm a PC guy but mostly because my dad is a Mac guy and I had to rebel. They are winning me over with their privacy push though.

That specific item won't be in any manual that I know of. I fix and install them in the field so I just sort of know from experience. If you look up the two items on the Mimaki website it will show you which machine and ink it's compatible with and what function it serves. It just so happens...

Yes you can use them interchangeably.

It usually has to do with how fast it evaporates. You don't want the solution to break up pigments and then dry so fast it stays in the head. Cleaning solutions tend to dry quicker. So at the end of the day, you can just get flush and use it as a cleaner too but I wouldn't go the other way...

Huh I guess not. Haven't used them in a while. They might do it if you call in.

I'm pretty sure Signs365.com allows for split shipping.

We do but we're waiting on a stocking order at the moment. But like I mentioned above, try a cap top first. It's way cheaper and it's usually the issue. The old one can look perfectly fine and still not be sealing correctly due to the rubber becoming more brittle over time.

OK we don't carry those. Unfortunately I haven't heard anything about the other guys good or bad.

Feel free to contact us. Looks like we have better pricing on the DX4, DX5 and DX7 heads if that is what you're looking for. We're an actual Mutoh and Mimaki dealer so can't get more legit than that! Solventinkjet.com

After only a year, you probably just need a cap top. Those stations and pumps last much longer and usually just the cap top wears out.

Are you hydro dipping then?

Yeah a 60º blade and make sure to change the offset setting to the proper number. Different angle blades require different offsets. The offset for your blade should be on the package it comes in or you can usually look it up.

Thanks! We had some pretty major technical issues a few weeks ago so we missed a few calls and emails. Got everything back up and running now! We've got a customer possibly upgrading their printer in that area so maybe we'll swing by.

New computers tend to have power saving setting turned on. Make sure the computer isn't set to sleep after a certain amount of time. Sometimes it is set to just turn the hard drive or network off as well.

You just have to flush them first. It's the shipping fluid that is incompatible with the ink. Although the old heads are no longer made so there shouldn't be problems in the future.

I assume you mean the UJV300? Rasterlink doesn't use spot colors to do white and clear unfortunately. It has you pick a CMYK value that you then replace with white and/or clear. Here's a YouTube video on how to set it up for white. It works similar for the varnish. There are definitely some...

Sorry I'm late to the party. Yes that is usually a clogged waste line. With the new inks, they came out with a retro fit tube system that is supposed prevent clogging. The new inks dry faster so I guess the angle of the tube needs to be steeper to drain faster into the tank.
