  1. Roland XJ-740 won't sense Right Edge of Material

    1. I think the media sensor has 2 eyes. You can easily see it at the service/cleaning position. If not just use a small mirror underneath and clean it with cleaning solution (printhead cleaner) 2. Make sure the printhead is clean enough. Never run at full speed. If you already changed a damper...
  2. x6 color or dual x4 color configuration

    I would download VS manual and see whether is it interchangeable in 6 color to 4 color. I have RA 640 runs dual CMYK. It is same platform as VS machines without cutter. It also has 6 color version at factory set. Before I had 3 different mimaki's either 6 or dual 4 colors. Short comparision: 6...
  3. Galaxy UD-251LA Printer (Epson DX5 problem)

    Filler cap is the black rubber cap on top of the main cartridge. John said already. Maybe the correct name is breather. Don’t force in ink cartridge side. I agree with the masters here, it is more like data error. I would change the white stripe cables in carriage area (connected to printhead)...
  4. Galaxy UD-251LA Printer (Epson DX5 problem)

    1.The printhead holds a liitle amount of ink inside. When ink runs out it emptied. You can fill it with ink to the damper connector in the head using a syringe. Connect syringe and damper connector with about 20 cm cut tube (same diameter as ink line). Gently pour about 10 ml ink into the...
  5. Galaxy UD-251LA Printer (Epson DX5 problem)

    why did you buy chinese printer? I guess pressure loss somewhere in the ink supply tubes. Did you fill up printhead with ink before connect the damper?

    The name of the title is Happy second birthday!
  7. Mimaki JV33-160 vs. Mutoh VJ1624

    I've heard Mutoh VJ 1624 has newer printhead same as my Roland Versa art RA640. But Mimaki JV33 and Mutoh VJ1604 have same EPSON DX5 printhead! You should double check. Also Mimaki JV33 is quite old model and serious price drop in asia. It wouldn't be expensive over Mutoh VJ 1624. Note JV33 is 6...

  10. Mimaki printing costs VS Roland VP540

    Thanks for kind words. Re: cheap chinese cutters, I don’t recommend you. Here in Mongolia, different story. We are neighboring china, so sign guys go to china buy Chinese cutter at 200-400 USD (50”) and earn 1-2K dollars then the cutter breaks, throw it away and buy another one. One my friend...
  11. Mimaki printing costs VS Roland VP540

    ink cost really matters. even 15 cents sq ft difference is huge. we live on this 15 cents, means all my profit. I have Roland Versa art RA640. (on eco-sol mode) you should calculate ink cost on each printer carefully before you buy. with 15 c/sq.ft difference just over 10K sq.m prints the...
  12. Help before buying Eco solvent printer please!

    shanghai This company is not manufacturer, just a middleman. Means you will get no support at all or even printer itself. If you really want to get a chinese printer, you'd better to go China yourself and visit the manufacturer. I don't know how much would be your travel expences to China but...
  13. Recomendatios Chinese Printer DX5 head

    Neighbor hi negrozx, I'll give you few general advice. My english is bad too:wink: 1. Why witcolor doesn't response to you, they simply don't have 3.2m printer with DX5 printhead (i guess) or decent quality 2. If you really want to deal with chinese, you have to go to china and find...
  14. Your thoughts of new Epson's SureColor wide format printer.

    I think 4 color ink system is not reversal direction. It's like back to the right path. 8 to 10 colors gives a better color gamut, but it makes difficult color management, unnecessary expense, speed loss and handling trouble. I don't have GS, but had 9900 and sold it out. CMYK is well enough for...
  15. Considering an HP5500 Designjet - Good or bad?

    legendary printer, but if you need to print a very high quality poster you'd better look at Z6200. It is 2 times faster and 2 times higher resolution. wes70 is right, you forget about 13oz banners
  16. HP designjet 5000ps printhead "reseat" problem when replacing printheads.. Help

    Dear RVR Try following: 1. clean/wipe out new printheads contact (about 24 copper dots) 2. after replace printheads command the carriage moves to the changing position then you switch off the printer (use main switch located at the back) 3. replace new neads and turn on
