There is an issue with the ISS PCA system. Corrective measures would be: 1. Power off and physically unplug the printer for at least 3 minutes. Then power it on and see if the error reoccurs. 2. Check connectors to upper and lower ISS PCAs to ensure that they are all secure. 3 Swap ink carts...

Using the lower idler roller is difficult due to limited space, but it is hardly impossible. Having a bit of space at the leading edge of the print media will help greatly, or failing that, using a leader that is curved or angled will limit the initial surface area passing around the idler...

First, this post is in the wrong forum (Hewlett Packard). Based on your description I would look at the capping station as the likely culprit. If the nozzles can be cleared, but clog again at a later time, the capping station is probably not making a good seal (misalignment alignment with...

i1Profiler is an ICC-profile creation tool. It can be used for building monitor, projector, printer, and scanner (device) ICC profiles. In a RIP-based workflow, there are a series of decisions that occur before the ICC is created. These steps are generally performed in the RIP (SAi in this...

No the media profile needs to be for your model printer, ink set, rip, etc in order to work even remotely correctly.

For the market segment you are describing, go with 7 inks.

I would run some tests with Roland Versaworks rather than Flexi for your RIP and see if you get better results from that RIP

I believe that you need to be on Onyx version 10.1 or newer in order to gain access to the driver for the L26500 / Latex 260.

Seems pretty clear that your network infrastructure needs to be upgraded to handle faster throughput speed. At least 100TX, if not 1000TX (gigabit).

Printheads for the L2 machines (L25500, L26500/ Latex 260) run about $110 ea in the USA market. There are six printheads in these machines.

Prints that are immediately able to go to the next stage of production are one of the major advantages of water-based latex ink. Having no Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) or hazardous air pollutants (HAPs) also is a benefit, particularly in home environments where young children or older...

There is no such thing as 'profile rot'; media profiles do not degrade over time. They can however produce different output over time, due to changes in the printer. Typically, re-linearizing the printer when output degrades would be the first thing to do, in an effort to get the device back to...

Increase your pass count. If you're on 8 or 10 pass, increase it to 12 pass. The fact that the first part of the print is ok indicates that the heaters need more time to dry and cure the ink on this media. Instituting an inter-pass delay value >0 can help as well (in the Ink Menu > Image Quality...

The HP latex ink printers have an on-board densitometer/ spectrophotometer (XRite i1) that can be used to re-linearize. It uses more ink and media (must be at least 36 inch wide) and may takes a bit longer than using an external measurement instrument.

3M Electrocut is by far the easiest film to weed that I have ever used. I've cut and successfully weeded and appled 1/10 inch lettering with this film, and believe me, I'm no whiz at weeding.

The Canon ipf machines are traditional water-based printers that are intended to print photographic images primarily onto paper and canvas. The inks are not intended for and will not bond with uncoated vinyl. Vinyl that is coated for these inks is very expensive compared to uncoated equivalent...

There is no question that this approach (a selection of pre-printed charts output onto the various medias used in production) is easy to implement. The question is, what to do when none of the swatches provide a match to the desired color? Get the customer to go with the closest is the typical...

As you can see from the attached image, there is almost no difference in ink consumption (1 cent worth) between 10pass and 12pass print modes on the HP Latex 260. It will print at a lower throughput at 12pass as you said. This example is holding constant all other variables (ink limits etc.)
