Missing nozzles/channels is almost never electrical. I'd say it's probably just a bad damper or something like that.

Welp I couldn't have done any worse on my bracket this year. My final four are all out! Got to let someone else win I guess.

That could work possibly. I'd get a sample first and test it out before committing!

Black will show up decent but all other colors will look either washed out and/or just muddy. The inks are more transparent than most people think.

The nozzle check does look funky. The small gap between the patterns should be more like a stair step and not wavy. It does seem like for some reason some of the channels have flipped but I couldn't tell you what would cause that other than the main board failing but that's not guarantee. It's a...

I wouldn't call that ghosting or banding honestly. To me it looks like a processing error. Basically, the computer in the printer that processes the RIP data seems to be malfunctioning. Either that or possibly an encoder issue but I've never seen an encoder mirror an image.

Yeah something like that or maybe a bad cut strip or blade holder. There are usually alignments that can be done too. If you are print/cutting, there's an alignment for adjusting the position of the cut but also there is usually one that adjusts repeatability as well. Unfortunately I don't work...

Cutters don't have a linear encoder like printers do and depending on the manufacturer, it may not have one at all. If there is one, it's a disc inside the motor. Your issue is more likely an alignment issue or a failing part.

I'm not making any accusations but I am skeptical. Maybe they get a better deal due to local economics or something. I don't know.

I'm highly skeptical that there is genuine Roland ink in those cartridges. If they work and save you money, more power to ya. But I've sold genuine ink for Roland, Mimaki, Mutoh, and Epson and $85 is less than cost for dealers.

I can get you a new one from Mimaki if they have it in stock. Feel free to call in and someone can help you out.

Technically there is no such thing as a Mimaki unlimited chip. Most of the third party chips are simply 1 liter chips. The re-setters are a better option for sure but keep in mind that even they aren't unlimited in most if not all cases. They tend to have a limited amount of resets that need to...

Try printing a red box behind the marks. Helps the sensor see contrast better.

In my experience ultra sonic cleaners don't do any better than a simple flush with a syringe.

I'd make sure to test the fuses outside of the machine as you can get incorrect readings while installed sometimes. Other than that, if the fuses are all good, it might be head damage although it would be very weird for all of the heads to get damaged in the same way. Unfortunately it seems to...

Once it boots up, you should be able to go into the menu and there will just be new item called Service Menu. In my experience it usually doesn't look like you've made it into service mode until you go into the menu and see the new item.

My mom ran for office in her county and had me make some campaign signs. She sent me a power point file. My own mother! I of course exported it as a PDF and elevated the design a bit in illustrator but come on ma!

There are some pretty cheap automatic heat presses from China. It's basically an electromagnet, timer, and some bike shocks as far as I can tell.

Check your cable connections for partially plugged in cables, damaged leads, corroded or dirty leads, anything that would cause a short int he head circuit. Basically the head signal is getting messed up due to a bad cable or even possible damage to the head or one of the boards.

Your cap top is probably just worn out. You could pop a new one on fairly easily but a whole new station will also do the trick most likely. You probably just aren't getting good suction.
