If you have an older version of the 1204 that has the removable memory board, remove the board, air dust the terminal, and re-install. I've seen a dirty memory board terminal cause strange issues like this. I also would recommend just unplugging the machine and letting it discharge for about...

Do you have any effects going on this file? Maybe that one part of the design got caught up in the effect and was rasterized along with it unintentionally?

If you haven't changed the sensor I would start there. The HDC board might just be fried as well.

It would be in the regular menu usually abbreviated, "ENV MATCH." It's very possible that your machine is one of the ones that does it automatically behind the scenes but it won't hurt to look in the menu just in case.

I don't know if this model has an environmental match but if it does, I would run that. It should sync the linear and motor encoders.

Some aftermarket wipers are too stiff for that machine and it just gets stuck. The sound is the motor spinning out.

Do you use a different IP other than the default? Mutoh's have a tendency to revert to the default randomly for some reason so if you use a different one that could be the issue. Have you tried connecting to another device?

Why PM? Let the world know!

I actually have to sign an NDA not to give out certain manuals. Seems to be the way the world is going unfortunately. The primer is much more harsh than the regular inks. On the JFX200 if you use primer you have to get a special metal sub tank instead of the plastic ones so that might be the...

I don't work on your model as we've never sold one but I do work on many Mimaki machines including the JFX200 which works in a similar fashion. Usually Mimaki has a procedure to change ink sets and they always recommend a tech does it. They also usually recommend basically changing every part in...

Sounds like a possible network or file processing issue. Are you setup to RIP and print at the same time or RIP then print? Try RIPing fully first and then send the job and see if the same thing happens.

Don't even put that piece back on. It doesn't actually do anything other than be a pain in the butt!

Take a look at this video on Flexi's color mapping tool: I'm surprised more people don't use it to be honest. It takes a Pantone color and prints a chart automatically adjusting the color slightly for each square. Then you just pick the square that looks the closest and every time you send...

As a tech, every single time I've mentioned environmental factors the customer pushes back. The truth is, netsol is right. Different machines can act differently even in the same room sometimes. It's worth it to try to get at least to the lower lever of the humidity spec. It will either fix...

IP addresses are like shipping addresses; they have to be unique for each location/device. So using the same IP for the computer and printer will not work. Maybe I read that wrong but wanted to make sure that was understood. Have you tried what Joe House suggested?

No long term damage. All a damper does is contract when ink is used by the head, and then expand due to elastic forces which pulls ink down back into the damper which gives continuous flow of ink during printing. When they fail, ink simply stops flowing or it drops out of the bottom of the head.

It's all about who you get them from. There are definitely bad manufacturers out there.

I've sold many thousands of after market 1204 dampers and only once in a great while one fails out of the box due to a manufacturing error. Other than that, they work just as well.

They have a ton for Rasterlink. Mimaki is notoriously slow to support third party software.
