    Hi Everybody,

    I’m thinking of using third party SS21 ink for my Mimaki for the first time, Has anybody used ink from a company called "Digital ink direct" ? any issues?

    Any third party brand that stands out better then another?

    i wound be interest to know what ink Bernard is using as he’s had no problems for many years.

    Thanks

  • Hi Kev,

    Thanks for the reply,

    I replaced the the capping station few weeks back with no noticeable change, I will replace all the dampers this week and pump and ill see if it cures the issue?

    Regards

  • Hi Kev

    The machine is about 9 year old, had new printhead fitted by Hybrid a 3 years ago, in the time I’ve had it it not been heavily used, but cleaned regularly.

    I myself thought it could be the dampers or pump? the problem its very odd, I can do test print one minute and all seems to be ok, then after doing a print job if i carry out a test print it shows large sections of colour banks missing??

    I’m going to order 8 new dampers tomorrow and a pump to see if that cures it?

    I’m still open to any other ideas that anybody has to what the problem could be?

    Many thanks.

    Richard
