ink

Any ideas what causes the ink on a vinyl print to smudge when using the squeegee? I doubt that its too much force with the squeegee as it did not happen before? Could it be the material, ink or printer heater settings or something else?

Hello all, I come to you, again, for help. I have been fighting with our Mutoh for two weeks. Friday, Jan 31, It printed fine. The following Monday, Feb 3, it showed a lot of missing segments on the nozzle check. I alternated between cleaning cycles and nozzle checks until I decided that it was...

Greetings everyone, We decided to make the changeover from IJC256 to IJC257. The Application Bulletin here seems to indicate that we don't need to perform the "short flush," which is a process managed by the printer. Instead, my understanding is that it just needs to have a "manual...

I purchased the Epson S40600 four months ago and I was happy with it until the price hike on the inks. Epson increased the price of their GS3 inks for no reason at all, no formula improvement, just price gouging. I suggest going with a printer that has cheaper inks and the option for third party...

I recently had to replace the manifold adapter on my Mutoh 1204. Broke a damper nozzle while changing dampers. We did a complete flushing of the printhead, and everything seemed to be fine. We also replaced the maint. station (genuine Mutoh) and installed a new wiper. We printed with it for 3...

Hi I have a question about when you replace the ink on a HP Latex 365? My designer says that it can be replaced at 20% but I think that too low. Any recommendations?

Hello, My Mimaki CJV30-60 was left sitting idle for a whole year. The nozzles were working perfectly before then. So I recently changed the dampers, tubes and capping station. I also gave the printhead an overnight soak. I went into options and selected Ink Fill Up. Still nothing was coming...
