  1. Reds and Yellows printing Off - HP Latex 115

    Well after installing a new yellow ink cartridge and flushing at at least 35 ml yellow ink I still have weak yellows. All head appear to be printing fine other than they are all Out of Warranty. Thoughts?
  2. Reds and Yellows printing Off - HP Latex 115

    How do I get HP Print OS to refresh or update so that I can see how much ink my yellow test used? I printed twice but do not see it updated in my list?
  3. Reds and Yellows printing Off - HP Latex 115

    Coming out of all the covid bs we aren't using the printer as much as we would have before. In the past month we've had a decent amount of work through the door. This all first started when I was trying to print a client's job early last week (a logo) with neutral grey made up of a combination...
  4. Reds and Yellows printing Off - HP Latex 115

    Great advice here. Today's project is finding out why our LTX 110 is printing weak yellows and this will help me to diagnose the issue. Photo attached, the top label is printed off our xerox and the bottom off the hp.
  5. Font Similar to Pittsburgh Pirates That I Can't Identify

    As a designer first I don't dissagree! It's pretty bad, but beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

    VanillaWhaleW90-Regular Regular Or Vanilla Whale. It looks like there are different versions of this font so you may have to mess around with a few options. https://www.fontke.com/family/1530427/
  7. GRAYS COMING OUT PURPLISH - HP LATEX & FLEXI

    Confirm if your media supplier changed their formulation or factory that builds it for them. I've had several medias sold, and purchased under the same brand name, model number, etc. and after having print issues and follow up with sales & technicians it ended up that there were indeed actual...
  8. HP Latex 110, Paper Media Puckering/Buckling Results in Crease

    Brad Gallant All good tips. I have been in the process of moving most of our media profiles to higher passes to allow me to get the curing temps down. I also increase the interpass delay on some medias to help with the ink drying. I did run a test on Kernow Coatings, Ultimate 230STL (PET film)...
  9. Electric paper cutters (guillotines)

    That will be the perfect machine to get started. I can't remember if that one has the hand crank to tighten the back blade or not? But it will work. I did find with our old cutter that the hand crank was sometimes difficult to manage accurate cuts with tall stacks of glossy paper or sticker...
  10. HP Latex 110, Paper Media Puckering/Buckling Results in Crease

    The job length doesn't seem to matter, for any job that would end up touching the floor we always use the table. I think we should look at experimenting with some sort of a skid/sled as you suggest attached under the heater and try this at different angles to see what happens. The China take-up...
  11. HP Latex 110, Paper Media Puckering/Buckling Results in Crease

    balstestrat True the 110 didn't come with a take-up and that may be a solution for larger run jobs. We always avoid having any of our prints hitting the floor. We place a large 8x4-ft, 34-inch tall table in front of the printer to receive the printed pieces. When doing this we have experimented...
  12. HP Latex 110, Paper Media Puckering/Buckling Results in Crease

    We’ve been troubled with this for a while now. On many media’s when we print as the paper exits the machine after being printed it puckers/buckles and that results in a crease in the finished and printed product. I will attach photos that will hopefully better show the issue. The photos are from...
  13. What is a used HP Latex 110 Printer worth

    I have mixed feelings about our HP Latex 110. We've had to have service here 2 times to fix it and we find it quite a bit of work to get media's profiled and linearized. We have a lot of issues with some media buckling and warping which causes head strikes. For the most part the machine works...
  14. Suggestions Aftermarket or 3rd Party Inks for HP Z6200 Photo

    Since the covid shut-down we elected to take the HP Z6200 offline as the price of ink and consumables was not competitive. I was considering moth balling the machine but then someone suggested that maybe I could find more affordable aftermarket ink? Looking for thoughts, considerations and...
  15. Need Help RIP Software

    Perhaps scour the used market to see if you can buy an older copy of some RIP software? We have used Sai Flexi in the past with an old Mutoh that died, we used Caldera for years with our 2 HP wide formats and have recently switched to PrintFactory. Honestly I have been so busy with creative work...
  16. The Great Canning Jar Shortage?

    Interesting fact. I assumed that all weed was stored in baggies or ziplocks. Smoking pot is legal in our province now and I find it interesting on how many homes smell of pot when I go on my nightly walk with the dog.
  17. Need Help Dark colors = greasy spots on my HP latex HELP!

    I have this same problem.
  18. Need Help HP Latex 360 prints have wet spots! Help! Always in same area. Not drying

    We have had very similar issues with our HP Latex 110. It's beyond frustrating. We've had the tecs check everything and clean vents and it still happens.

    We had 3 clients cancel jobs yesterday. Ontario, Canada.
