Running Mutoh Falcon II With One Color Per Head

[spencer2004]

Hi.

I want to run my Mutoh Falcon II with one color per head so that I don't get any cross contamination. At the moment the ink order goes KMCYKMCY but I want it to go KKMMCCYY.

I have seen this done on other machines so I know it's possible.

I cannot find the option in any of the menus or any mention of it in the service menu.

Could someone please tell me how I can set it to "one color per head mode"?

For anyone that wants to know you need firmware version 2.17 or later to do one color per head.

Note that firmware versions above 2.11 do not allow you to bypass the ink cartridge smart chips with the special code so you will need auto reset chips or something.

Hi,

I am on the exact same situation, is it better to run this unit with one color per head? Which firmware are you using? Are you able to bypass the ink cartridge smart chip, how?

Thank you in advance for all your help!
