hey all hope someone may have insight into this one. downloaded a new backlit profile on my 560. after syncing it, i am now getting a 79:04 error everytime i send a job over. any thoughts??

i would not as you will not be able to get parts, inks, or heads after jan 31st

I use 030 styrene taped down on all sides to cover the pre heat platen on my roland. works like a charm. you just want to be CERTAIN you have it down really well. the last thing you want is to have that thing suck into the pinch rollers and into the carriage path. cause that is a good time for...

same deal as 25500. hp is discoing the 850 as well because it is technically 1st gen latex. we purchased a 1500 that came in today. its insane though. if anyone trolls the global garage or any grand format used sites, the 850 went from 10k to less than 5 within 3 days of the announcement by hp...

I've got a bunch of expired ink still kicking around for my 25500. my lx850 is being decommissioned as we speak. not sure what to do either.

yes they will dent over time. you'd really have to pad those brackets to prevent that. id say as long as you use some foam to pad them they should be okay. you may want to build a 3rd bracket in the middle to keep the rolls from sagging in the middle.

if you are purchasing it, i would not even think about using rolls on there. massive quality drop from latex to uv. for board printing(corro, pvc, foam, acm, any other thing really) its a workhorse as long as you take care of the heads and keep up to date on maintenance. the tech is getting...

yeah honestly i don't even know if its the touch pad itself or the onboard ram thats the issue. i can see it register my pick and then it just hangs for at least 5 to 10 seconds before it completes the task asked of it. its strange. I'm in the "just restart it" camp though. fixes the problem in...

Hey all. I've got a new HP Latex 1500 coming in to replace our aging LX-850. Any users out there know what i can expect for a learning curve? Everything i have seen with it just makes the 1500 look like a beefy 850. Really what i am asking here is, am i in for a surprise when it arrives or is it...

ooooh yeah thats rough. did you end up finding a mini 220 vac to fit inside that housing?

unfortunately, due to the white ink config, it runs the auto purges on that cycle to keep the white flowing. from what i remember, unless you really want to shoot yourself in the foot, thats gotta stay on or you will have a big issue on your hands. hence why i took my white off and reconverted...

if you're not going to be running consistently, go latex, and learn all you can in your downtime about the printer BEFORE you start getting jobs. if you don't know anything about printers, learning curve will be steep, but if you are the operator its important to know what your doing before you...

do you know if its on the carriage or platen??

been using them for a while and haven't seen it. its really weird. they have been consistently solid for me which has been pretty great. and it could be that we just go thru our material so quickly it doesn't have time to sit.

Have had this roland for about 3 years now and only recently have been having this problem. When doing the media setup, it seems to be measuring the full width of the possible media at 63.5 and not the actual media size loaded in the machine. We've been getting by with just using the rip to set...

its strange that everyone seems to have problems with ultraflex's banner because i haven't had issues at all.

i don't have a lot of mutoh experience but that seems like a much bigger issue than encoder or really anything else other than an electrical issue. like i said, not much exp, but id say there is a deeper issue. id call a tech to get some better info so you don't end up electrocuting your self if...

helllloooooo from ct in the us!

out water plastics got em!

absolutely go 3gen. as 2ct says, they will be discoing all parts, ink, and heads from 1 and 2 gen printers. if you want your printer to last you at least 5 years, you're going to have to go 3rd gen out of necessity.
