  2. Mimaki JV33 Black Head

    Yes there are a few ways to set automatic cleanings. 1 way is in the Type settings during a print (after so many meters printed) and another way is to set up up to clean routinely in Sleep mode.

    You replaced the head, did you replace all of the dampers and cap station and pump too? I usually have to change my pump and cap station every 1-2 years. since the ink is in the cap station when you start printing, I would think the pump is bad. but im only guessing. above the dampers are...

  17. JV33 Blue ink head

    Do you have your settings set up to do a cleaning after a # of meters print? if so, perhaps the wiper is not cleaning the printer head and allowing some of the Blue to mix into the other channels? I used to have mine set up to clean after so many # of meters printed but then it caused issues...

  19. JV33 Heat settings

    Thanks, that is exactly when the problems arise-with dark or high saturated colors. With more testing this past few weeks, I have found a good result with many colors using 30/40/38 or something close to that. But I have more tests to do for higher Saturated colors. Always open to learn more

    Does anyone have valuable information about heat settings? I am not printing on vinyl but rather thin 65g 70g decor paper for the laminate industry.
