The plotter is reading the barcode and the registration marks, but I see it needs a lot more time to read it compared to regular vinyl. And sometimes it will not find a registration mark.

I have not. Do I need to calibrate it speciffically for the vinyl with white on a sperate profile ? Or is it just general calibration? I have no issues with contourcutting on normal prints, it's spot on .

Hey So I'm in a bit of a struggle. I print labels for a client on gold vinyl with white ink on my HP latex 630W. Printing on Oracal 751c - Gold Metallic Laminating with Oraguard 215 Contour cuts are sometimes perfect and spot on, but sometimes way off. I feel like the summa has issues...

It was pretty high in the clearview problem. Seems like I had to attach to the take up reel before printing. Pretty expensive on 3M clearview :D

I'm having the same issue on my 630W with HP clearview with PET liner. It's loading correctly and moving perfectly untill I start printing, it justs doesn't move anymore, slips in the rollers.

I have to clean the wheels every time switching to a wider roll. It’s not terrible, but it shouldnt happen.

Dont u guys have the issue when printing on smaller rolls, the wheels not being used will leave marks when printing on a wider roll?

What I really dislike and my buddy with the 700W has the same problem. When printing on a smaller roll like 105cm and then switching to a 150cm roll, the 50cm where the wheels were not used will leave traces in the print and need to be cleaned with alcohol... That's really bad design imo.

balstestrat cornholio U guys will never guess what fixed it... I was trying to print a RAL color and the RIP build the RAL color as this +/- 0 8 15 29 CMYK So what my dealer said is there is too less ink for the passes, u need to rebuild the color with less Black. So in the RIP I could set...

After spending hours and meters of vinyl I gave up today. Will contact my supplier tomorrow and go from there. Some more images

U think it could be the optimizer? Printhead alignment looks pretty good to me yea. And I did it on glossy vinyl. I'll try a control print... Disabling the substrate advance wheel made it better, but not good enough. Edit: hp control print looks perfect to me

So I got my 630W and I can’t get my first print on point damnnnn This is at 8 pass and 12 pass. Substrate advance calibration looks good. Lightest column is the 0 column… Also after printing on 105cm and switching to 152cm, the 50cm extra will leave traces. I have to clean the wheels….

Well I ordered the 630W as an upgrade from my 570 :-) Speed is not really an issue as the machine is not running 24/7

So... I currently own a HP Latex 570 which is still working great but has nearly 60k m² on the clock and is sometimes starting to show that it's gonna cost me some money soon. The drive belt is starting to go and needs replacement soon, but ok that's not a huge cost. Other than that it has...
