I'm starting work at a new shop on Monday, and they have a brand new HPL26500. I've never worked with one before, and I'm just wondering if anyone has any tips. I believe they're using Flexi for the rip, which is something else I've never done..For reference, I've worked with Roland XC-540MT...

Just to save I'm only replying to this to make it easier to find again...thank you OP!!!!:thumb:

Wow...I'm not much of an installer, but I've been designing and printing wraps for about two years now, and I make less than that...and I'm in your area. I think I need to have a long talk with my boss.

I know we're not using mt profiles when not printing mt ink...but we're going thru a cartridge about every other week...

Thanx all...going to have to try just running with the cleaning cartridge...can't afford to keep replacing the metallic for no reason..I'll update with my results :Big Laugh

We have a Roland XC-540MT printer. For the most part it is awesome, and I love the ability to print in white and metallic. However, we don't have to do that very often, so we keep running out of metallic and white ink (through the automatic cleanings) before we get a chance to use it. I'm just...

thank you thank you thank you...I thought I'd tried that, but I guess I didn't wait long enough before deciding it didn't work

I have an Epson s30670 and Onyx, in the RIP queue, it says that my printer is offline and won't let me print...it was working fine earlier...

Ok, Here goes, the mark size in the plotter was different from the mark size we were printing. So, I set those to the same in both places. Also, I perform a prefeed before every cut. Finally (as gets mentioned a LOT when using glossy material) I put patches of matte laminate over the...

Thanks all for your help...I think I've got everything worked out...

Ok, so I made the registration marks using the "Convert Rectangle" option so I could give a little more space between the design and the marks. I also set it to pre-feed the length of the print, increased the tension on the outer pinch rollers and set the mark detection speed to "slow". The test...

@jasonx: yes, and it was off by the same amount... @omgsideburns: I tried, but it would only draw the mark, not read it when it was done... I'm cutting out of Illustrator cs5 using Cutting Master 2 Using Graphtec Type 2 Automatic Registration Marks, Margin: .59"; Thickness: .02"; Length: .59"

Ya, that didn't work at all....

Double checked that...everything's consistent and the knife is in position one...
