+ 1 Create two ICC profiles for the media, one without and the other with the laminate applied. Neutral (grays) and near neutrals (pastels etc) are the most likely to be affected by the color cast of the laminate. Measuring the ICC chart (only) through the laminate will correct for the cast that...

The L25500 was available in a 42 inch width. That printer series was based on the Z-series machines, a traditional water-based printer that has long been available in a 42 inch width. HP no longer offers the 42 inch latex printer - the current L26500 is only a 61 inch device.

Those are roller marks from the media feed system. They can be a challenge to eliminate, but their visibility varies widely from media to media. For example, Ultraflex and house brands made by them (banner medias) seem to not exhibit this, whereas other, competitive products may. Other...

Are you using Roland OEM ink, or 3rd-party ink? Some Roland firmware will force more frequent cleaning cycles when non-Roland ink carts are detected.

The Eaglejet is a rebranded HP Designjet 5000/ 5500 series.

The Firefox 17.0.1 update looks to have resolved this, at least on my systems...

Versaworks 4.8 is now available for download via Online Update.

In general terms, the color gamuts of Epson (Roland Mutoh Mimaki EcoSol) ink and HPs latex ink are not much different from each other. The latex ink, (in concert with the print platform) is able to more easily print uniform and consistent solid colors, in my opinion.

The nozzle test (each dash on ink represents one nozzle) is the bottom line. There appear to be a couple of nozzles in the black head that are firing (out of 360), so that is a plus. That tends to make me think that it is a 'plumbing' issue rather than an electronics issue. I would replace...

+1 (though you may get a hint of banding at that resolution, depending on pass count).

OK, I successfully profiled for the Envision 480Cv3 on the HP L26500 latex (for Onyx and Wasatch). The media seems to receive the latex ink fairly well. I plan on attempting to profile the 480 on a Roland with Eco Sol Max ink tomorrow (using Versaworks). Will keep the board appraised.

MAX Impact is a very useful preset in Versaworks, though most users have little idea what it really does. Roland has created its own RGB and CMYK working spaces and using this preset automatically converts the color values in the file to these color spaces. As they are larger than standard...

I just received a roll of IJ480 today. I plan on attempting to profile it on the HP L26500 and Roland printers (although I understand that the Roland inkset may be iffy for this material).

On most printers, there is (or should be) no physical contact between the linear encoder and the sensor, or anything else. The job of the encoder/ sensor is to keep track of the position of the carriage as it prints. It does this by counting the lines or other markings that are present on the...

The sensor is normally located on the carriage (I can't say that I am familiar with your printer model, so it is hard to provide more specific info).

Initial thought is that the linear encoder strip (aka t-fence) or the encoder sensor tends to be the general cause of y-axis misprints. Locate and clean the strip and sensor, but do not use any harsh cleaning agents, as you can damage the strip or sensor. A lint-free cloth and IPA are generally...

I would suggest that you start by looking at the ICC's web site: www.color.org There is a lot of info of these boards on this subject.
