  • Mimaki JV3-160S – Color spread problem

    Posted by Feher Gebor on 28 May 2018 at 16:23

    Hi!
    I’d like to ask for assistance, regarding a problem that’s constant with my printer (Mimaki JV3-160S sublimation dye). When I start printing, the print is a bit hazy and the colors are spread everywhere, every direction. We put up new heads and changed the encoder strip recently. What should I do in this situation? I’ll attach some pictures.

    Thanks in advance

    Looks to me like poor quality printheads that have been poorly calibrated. Maybe even an electrical fault on your M or lm.
