M014070 - Tube Pump Assy

Tube Pump Assembly – Mimaki JV/CJV 150 & 300 – M014070

The Tube Pump Assembly, part number M014070, is the tube pump fitted to the suction station and ink supply circuit of Mimaki JV and CJV 150/300 series plotters. It is a key component of the printhead maintenance system.

It is a peristaltic pump: a roller squeezes a flexible tube to move the fluid without any contact between the mechanism and the ink. This principle ensures consistent suction at the caps during cleaning cycles and maintains circuit pressure for a constant ink supply to the print heads.

Supplied as a complete, pre-assembled unit (Assy) ready for installation, this genuine Mimaki part replaces the previous part number M011571; it corresponds to Ricoh part number M1533049.

Function

• To draw ink from the nozzles during printhead cleaning cycles
• Ensure the circulation and re-priming of ink within the supply circuit
• Maintain system pressure to ensure a steady ink supply to the print heads
• To remove air and bubbles during purging (Prime function / ink refill)
• Drain used ink into the collection tray

Possible symptoms of wear

• Ineffective printhead cleaning, clogged nozzles despite repeated cleaning cycles
• Weak or no suction at the caps
• Streaks, missing nozzles (nozzle drop-out) and misalignment on printouts
• Inability to prime or recurring air bubbles in the tubes
• Abnormal noise from the pump or ink leakage from the pump body

Replacing the M014070 tube pump restores strong suction at the capping station, ensures reliable printhead cleaning and guarantees a stable ink supply. Check the installation direction (arrow on the pump body) before tightening, then run a priming cycle to purge the air.
