printhead

Does anyone know if there’s a way to get a better seal from my capping station to the printer head? We clean everything periodically like how it’s supposed to be done and just replaced the ink caps. For some reason it’s not sealing correctly to one of the colors….. Any advice on how to fix that...

Hello, I’ve been using the HP Latex 700W for about a year now. I’ve also been using the Latex 335 for 5 years. Overall, I’m very satisfied with both machines. HP service had told me that the new 836 printheads used in the Latex 700–800 series have a much longer lifespan compared to the older...

Hi Guys, So I have an issue with my VS540i. So my old printhead has been leaking whilst idle. Ink droplets would just drip from the printhead whilst nothing was happening. I've noticed this when I did a manual clean as I could see under the printhead. As well as this the printhead will often get...

hello I would like to get some advice. I originally used BN-20 (printer A) to run a small business. However, one day, blue ink started to seep into the yellow ink area as shown in the photo below, and the resulting color came out messy. (The photo shows a nozzle test after cleaning, so the...

I am getting alot of horizontal banding issues. I replaced all print heads and the issue cleared up but only for one day the next morning the issue is back. I can pull the head and give a few good wipes and it clears up pretty good but not like I think it should be. Attached is a droplet check...

Hi I have recently had a new Printhead but haven’t used it for a week. It has been left on the secondary power but the new Printhead is not firing properly. Can anyone offer any advice of what may be causing this?

been seeing these all over the place for less than half price but can't see any reviews anywhere. Has anyone tried them? surely $200 worth a try if it works for couple years. here is the Amazon listing

Hello, I'm fairly new to wide format printing. I purchased a Mimaki CJV150-75 in '22 to be able to print marketing materials in-house (stickers, banners, posters, etc). I don't print every day, but I do at a minimum run test prints everyday to make sure everything is in working order. About...

I've been trying for a while to get an older UCJV300-160 up and running again. My current problem is ink pooling on the underside of the left printhead ( stage right ). I'll call it HEAD 1. So far, I've replaced the following: 1. All the ink lines / tubes ( MP-M018909 ) 2. Cap bases (...

Hi everyone, I’m encountering an issue with a DX5 printhead, and I hope someone here can help. I’m a service technician and have personally replaced over 100 printheads, so I’m familiar with the process. In this case, I’ve ensured that the new head ID was properly entered each time. I...

I have a Mutoh VJ 426UF. After installing a new head, I did a nozzle check and noticed only one color wasn't printing. I figured something must be wrong with the damper and tried to change it. I accidentally disconnected one of the cables while the printer was in standby. The machine made some...

Hello everyone! I have a Roland LG 300 UV printer and have been using it for a while. Lately, I've noticed an issue when printing black and white designs: some spots appear faded compared to others. This doesn't happen with color prints; they come out perfectly fine. If it were a printhead clog...

I have a Roland sp300i and I’ve always printed on vinyl and banner and have never changed the height of the printhead. I am not even sure if I can on my printer. I just replaced the printhead and have to print on double sided 13 oz banner which I have done before but now I wonder if I need to...
