Okay thank you, I will give that a try and hopefully fixes my issue. Thanks for the quick replies as well and have a happy holiday season if we do not chat again!

Okay I was wondering if you meant X and Y, I will check that after I finish cutting out the last few rows of the decal I already adjusted for, before starting the next cut. Do I need to print something before starting to make that adjustment, to make that adjustment with?

Yes we are, but no I haven't adjust that one. Is that in the maintenance menu as well? Does the operating or service manual tell you how to make that adjustment?

Hey guys, Idk if anyone can help with this. Grown tired of my cuts being slightly off but all of a sudden it went from manageable to worse. I've attached a pic from illustrator showing my cut contour line being brought way to the left to get the printer to cut out properly (centred) and...

Hey how did you make out?? Have had this issue for a long time, on various types of print & cuts, including small labels. And it will just get to a point even halfway across a row where it will find the 2 front then start for the first rear one and stop short, will skip that label and go to the...

No It's an eco solvent printer, Mimaki Yeah it was weird because it seemed like the capping station had a good seal and everything was working fine, waste tube/pump So was very surprised when we decided to change the capping station first then run a cleaning cycle and do a test print and...

Changed the capping station, surprisingly that's all it was, had bought dampeners as well which we didn't need and kept just in case Hope its as simple as that for you as well! We went through hell chasing the issue til that point lol

Issue Fixed.

Recently had some issues with one side of our yellow nozzles not firing half of the test print, one side was good, the other only bottom half roughly was firing. Now we currently have no yellow coming out of either side. Have tried all the usual washes, ink fills, etc. several, several times...

Okay perfect thanks. I had a feeling that's what I had to do, using offset paths, but you google it and all that comes up is adding bleeds in the printing menu of illustrator, for normal printers I imagine

. Question about bleeds, as I know a bit about it but not everything.. My understanding is it works well when printing a full sheet and you want some extra print to the edge of the paper or just past your crop marks. Does applying a bleed, using illustrator, work the same when printing out...

we were doing the same thing, limiting size whenever possible, to obtain the most accurate results. I had read a bit about their firmware, as it was cited to be a possible cause, but didn't delve too deep into it once I checked we were up to date for our machine. My main worry is we have a few...

Good idea I will have to check that and see. We recently started put them at the higher pressure setting but on a few of our vinyl materials it start to leave impressions unfortunately

It has been on smaller lettering cut outs, but I've heard that with the larger cuts it can be off. Had called another supplier and talked to one of their techs which seemed much more knowledgeable and told me about the bleed and a couple other tips as well. Thanks for the quick responses!

Hey everyone, We have been running a mimaki cjv30-160 for a few months now and recently ran into some issues with our cuts not being accurate. We just started noticing this problem as our print and cuts in the past have been straight-forward where recently we've had some customers wanting some...

Okay something to check on when I have the time for sure. Haven't even had the machine for a year yet, bought it from a sign supply place with a one year warranty. They were supposed to have refurbished it and he was confident in it so he gave us the 1 yr warranty on him, and we've been having a...

How do I check how much ink its pulling when its running through a cleaning cycle?

We have been buying them from the same supplier we got the machine from, and are the ones claiming it should leave some ink, but like i said it's definitely much more than what is said to be left. I'll have to contact the supplier regarding the dates as there is nothing that looks like a date on...

I know it won't be completely empty so air won't get into the lines but it is much more than 14%. I would say closer to half

Hey everyone, I have a question regarding my mimaki cjv30-160 printer ink cartridges. We recently purchased a set of 4 cmyk inks from our supplier as 3 had gone empty so we wanted to get backups. When removing the supposedly empty cartridge they still felt as if they had some ink left. We...
