Last time, we have discussed the details we have to checked if your RIP computer and inkjet printer can’t be connected.But what we have mentioned before are not all. Now, we will introduce you other checking methods. Checking standard of the PC and USB Cable 1. Checking of PC USB connector and USB cable are standardized USB 2.0 2. Checking standardized correspondence of USB2.0 of USB Cable. Standard length for USB cable is Max.5m. If cable length is not enough from USB port of Machine to PC, prepare extension cables. Check the USB connection if data transfer is no problem before using extension cable. (Extension cable cannot connect more than 3 cables, except JFX. (Extension cable cannot connect more than 2 cables for JFX) 3. Replacing USB cable with other one 4. Checking of the PC specification. If PC Specification is not enough speed Machine will wait the data from PC and sometime Head carriage go back to the Home position until enough data received. Data is received when printing mode is indicating in the Printer panel. During this time if the head carriage is stopped at home position 2 or 3 seconds or more, possibly printing data is not coming from PC quick enough. Other checks 1. Trying performing of Data clear once 2. Rebooting of the Machine and the PC 3. Retrying printing of same data from spooling 4. When Mimaki Raster Link Pro software is used, check correct Machine in the Raster Link Pro setting 5. Open the Printer Management window of Raster Link Pro 6. Check Printer name and port See the Raster Link Pro Installation guide for the detail).If multiple printers are connected to 1 PC, target machine could not detect because Machine name has same name. In case of this, switch / in the machine panel and click on [Renew status] in Raster Link Pro.

is not enough speed Machine
will wait the data from PC and
sometime Head carriage go
back to the Home position until
enough data received. Data is
received when printing mode is
indicating in the Printer panel.
During this time if the head
carriage is stopped at home
position 2 or 3 seconds or more,
possibly printing data is not
coming from PC quick enough.

5. Other checks
1. Trying performing of Data clear once
2. Rebooting of the Machine and the PC
3. Retrying printing of same data from spooling
4. When Mimaki Raster Link Pro software is used, check correct Machine in the Raster
Link Pro setting
5. Open the Printer Management window of Raster Link Pro
6. Check Printer name and port See the Raster Link Pro Installation guide for the detail).If
multiple printers are connected to 1 PC, target machine could not detect because Machine
name has same name. In case of this, switch / in the machine panel and click on [Renew
