Sell it Before you go opening a brand new machine, and depreciating the item by 50% at least, think about trying to sell it used. You never will. This type of HP is tiny, has very few uses, and will be obsolete by the time you open it, use it, and are ready to sell it. I would sell it to a...

Windows XP? Having just upgraded from Windows XP, it is no longer supported by its creator or other sources. Might be that your operating PC software is not compatible. You might be FORCED to upgrade to the next level of Windows. Good Luck! - Doug Vancouver

6mm corolpast GRIMCO certainly has a location near you!

OCE head align Hi There New OCE User, First, make sure that all your heads are seated flat and straight in the printer head box. These heads are NOT screwed into the printer head, only held by a plastic clip. (Duh! Hello, design?) Look under the print head box, like you're gonna clean it...

Hey There, Looks to me that the missing nozzles are causing the white stripes. Also, with the black ink outside the image, looks like there may be a head height issue. The droplet problem makes me think of a humidity issue in your location. We had that happening this summer, in hot weather, on...

Prior Planning Prevents Poor Performance BUY a toilet plunger before you NEED a toilet plunger.

Already laminated? Hey All, Since this is reflective material, isn't it already laminated, to cover/hold the glass crystals which reflect light? I don't know if that will hold an ink print. I have not seen reflective printed, only different colors of reflective material, cut into lettering...

Yes! I have two FUJI Acuity flatbeds. The isopropyl alcohol works much better than the flush. It's not completely successful in getting every nozzle clean, but it doesn't seem to be melting the print head seals, which our techs have shown to be a side effect of using flush as a cleaner. Good...

bottom to top Hey All, I have wrapped both MDO and metal sign edges. For both to avoid weather/rain, we wrap the edges from bottom to top. This will help seal it from falling rain, dripping snow/ice. So, bottom flap folded over first, then sides, then top. It also depends on how the rear...

He will never forget Most often, a soldier in that position will never forget. He will also likely feel guilty that he survived and others didn't. A memorial on his vehicle might help him every time he sees it. Personally, I would go with the emblem of whichever service branch he was in...

Awesome! Great! Glad you found the problem. Even happier you shared the results. Rock On! - Doug Vancouver

ink filter? Hey, Where is the ink filter on this model? If you've checked the dampers and the air filters, maybe a leak near the ink filters? Also, is there a rubber gasket around the capping station? I had a red head drop out when suction was lost at the capping station. Check for a slight...

similar forehead slapper Yeah, bummer when those dumb little things make big problems. Had the same situation yearsago. New OCE 250GT. All shop personnel got training, me mostly as I was printer lead. Prints kept changing color halfway through full sheets. Nobody could tell what was up...

check for cracks in plastic parts Also,take a close look for cracks in plastic parts. Seams, corners, undersides all can hide cracks which will let in air. I would say look at the TOP of things, since a crack/leak on the BOTTOM would cause visible ink drips/puddles. Cracks on the top of a...

air bubbles? Hey There, Sounds like air bubbles in the line. Seems you have done all the normal fixes for that. Maybe there's a faulty damper? Loose hose connection? Do you see any leaks? Leaky air filter? Would be good to know what make/model/size printer you have. Mimaki, I'm guessing. -...

too much ink? Looks to me like a corrupted profile, spitting too much ink. Try re-doing the profile (ie: copying a similar profile and adjust). I operated a 28500 for about a year, and had some similar problems. Please re-post with results. Good Luck! - Doug

"Ship Print" is misleading Hi There, We have had bad banding problems here with one of our Fuji Acuity flatbeds. Ship print looks fine, banding continues is regular jobs. This is AFTER Fuji tech created a new profile. Bulbs recent, nozzle checks fine, still having awful stripes across most...

Hp l285000 Hey There, The tales you hear about HP's plastic parts failing are true in my experience. In 2012-13, I ran a 104" wide model, and the material handle, the one you use every time you set up the machine, was dependent on a cheap plastic part. It broke in the first week, the tech...

printer/inks I'm running two FUJI Acuity 4x8 UV flatbeds. Same inks as OCE.

liner removal? Hi Pat White; Oh yes, I know your pain. Those lines which are left behind by the plastic protective sheet. I have found that 90% alcohol is good, with a strong wiping. Also, you just have to get one corner up, and then rip it off all at once. Tough to do with a full sheet, but...
