Ok, the blade height is fine, it's not sticking out too far. I've got my offset zeroed out. I tried going from 0 to +3 and to -3 and it never gets better either way. 0 is the best so far. No chips in the blade and it looks sharp but i'm trying to think how long that new blade has been...
I'm stumped. Our FC8000's cut quality is not what it has been. We replaced the blade and the cutting strip but I'm still getting poor quality. For example when you do the force test (the triangle test) the triangles are not straight edged, they have a bit of a wave to them. I've tried going...

Hold on a second, "Passes don't add ink"? I have accounting information from our LX850 that will prove that statement false. 18Pass bi-directional vs 14Pass bi-directional = 100ml difference in ink usage
Pull and check the heads for any problems, then do an auto alignment. Try the advancement test again. If this keeps up, it could be the front or back spindle motor. There are burn-in tests that can be done by a tech to see if your motors are in spec or are slipping. We've had our front...
No OMAS and the problem is still showing? Media could be expanding/contracting with the heat and cure zone temp changes. Fabric is the only media I've never completely fixed this problem but it looks like your running gloss vinyl, so that's weird
I believe your talking about the alignment on the "ladder" test as HP calls it. Looks like the magenta and or black will fall out of alignment and then go back. It's the substrate advancement. We have an LX850 and sometimes if your using the OMAS, this can happen. I'll turn it off and do the...
We print some fabric in house, depends on if the client is renting the exhibit for 1-2 uses or purchasing for the long haul. Rental= fabric on our LX850 and Purchase= Dye Sub outsourced to another vendor
I remember when I didn't have room for those two tables in our old shop, now i've got 6- 5 x 10' rolling tables (two for the laminator) and the rest for fabric.
Ok, since you asked so nicely!
I've attached three images, the formula and drawing from that (the pink shape is the front view of the frame) and then the other images show how the arc is determined and the final artwork that was printed twice
It's been two months of tension fabric signs and this one is a first for us. A tapered circle. The math behind finding how to layout the artwork was the first hurdle but after that it was smooth sailing
Our sign shop is owned by an exhibit company so we understand utilizing floor space and getting others to notice. We have a 10 x 10' Triga frame system with SEG fabric printed off our LX850. We have other samples of sign solutions and we also have two banner stands that our salesman uses here...
It will hang about 25ft from the show floor at the convention center in Vegas. They have a double deck booth so the sign has to hang higher than normal
Here is a little taste of what we've been up to this month. Lots of fabric for a client exhibiting at NAB in April. This is just one of the 3 pillowcase tension signs they have.
This one is 6' h x 12' w
HP flipped the bill for us to head to Atlanta and check out their demo facility and also troubleshoot some of the issues on our LX850. It was well worth the time because we also skipped out and went to CET Color. If your considering purchasing a UV flatbed, get out to CET's office/production...
I'm sitting across the street from the Atlanta HP demo center and talked with a tech that just got back from Barcelona. He can't say what is coming in the next year but he did say that HP is definitely all in on it's latex technology. Hopefully that means more to come in from the 820-850 series
I like the answers I'm hearing. The reason for the question is because we would like to move away from mounting prints to substrate (sintra, plexi, etc) and just print to the material. We are an in house graphics dept for a exhibit house and we have the lightboxes made in house so printing to...
Your not the only one. Ever since we got the LX850, I haven't been able to get a latex print to not curl after laminating. Regardless of the media. I've tried adjusting the tension, speed, heat and using the cam rollers on our AGL but no luck. If I figure something out, i'll post the solution
