  3. HP Latex 315 and Flexi probs

    Turns out this was a simple IP conflict, the nasty BT router that came with our broadband hit a snag and that was all it was. Changed the IP address and bingo, away she goes. Looking at a new router that i can lock the IP address down.
  4. Lifting heavy rolls

    What do people use to help lift and move the heavy vinyl rolls? I've got on on my media storage rack and the roll is sliding up the core when I try to lift it of. It got me thinking, the must be an easy way to do this on my own.

    I'm having an issue with the SAI Flexi Production manager software not being able to read the media size from my latex 315 printer, it's just started happening, was working perfectly. I have uploaded the latest firmware and its coincided with that, I think! We get the message “failed to read...
