HP 800w Latest Firmware update-opinions sought

[jeffdpia]

Looking for folks who are using the latest firmware update PLS_32_22_23.7 in their 800w machines. Was anything broken in this revision? Just curious as my last update killed the media advance. Thanks all

Updated a while ago. Haven't had any problems. The only thing visibly different in the Subtrate Source window there is a line the says "Right Edge Position" and the distance.
Didn't lose anything.

You should definitely update. It fixes issues that the previous version had.

Spoiler: Changes

Fix and enhancements:

• New print mode setting: one meter stabilization plot to improve tiling performance.
• New function to update media profiles for the new one meter stabilization plot setting in existing profiles.
• Input tension for generic self-adhesive vinyl family decreased from 15 to 6 Nm.
• Generic blue back media family updated to improve image quality. The default optimizer value is 15%.
• Workflow and messaging for media path blocked errors improved.
• Skew check value to remain the same when loading a new roll.
• Right edge position value is now displayed on the front panel substrate application.
• New diagnostic plot for optimizer printhead depletion.
• White ink banding improved when changing the print mode from overflood to underflood, or vice versa.
• Automatic media load improved to prevent the substrate from unloading during this process.
• Issue where the take-up reels stop collecting the substrate when using ‘Do not apply tension’ mode improved.
• Issue where the image is shifted on scan axis direction during the first and/or last pass improved
• General bug fixes and improvements.
