thank you we have cycled the printer several times but no joy... so frustrating, its definitely to do with the second ethernet card which connects to the printer and its lost its IP address so wont connect.

You can set the IP again if that's the case. 172.22.22.21

We have had this issue twice now. Both times we tried recycling, leaving it down for 10 minutes and no luck. Both times we left in unplugged for several hours and when we started back up, the message cleared. Did you find any other solution?

Anyone else having issues with ink no adhering well to Coro? Outdoors, it tend to start flaking in about a year. For handheld signs, we see ink coming off on peoples hands when they sweat.

Got to say I have not heard about that. Curing it properly? I'd maybe consider different brand of coro.

I will grab a picture of our profile once I get to the shop today, but from memory I know it's identical settings to our generic self adhesive vinyl (we use Briteline series from Grimco)

Did anyone end up finding good static cling settings for the r1000? Using briteline/general formulations white cling and having some issues

Hello everyone,

Feeling a bit chatty lately while working night shifts to keep up with a large job. Wife's running day ops which leaves me alone with my vices and equipment.

Anyway, as the title says we've had an R1000 in our shop since the first few months of US availability. We upgraded from a Scitex FB550 which we owned for a year before the R series was announced and we decided to sell the 550 and upgrade.

Being owner to new tech meant there hasn't been much I could find online when troubleshooting or researching in this last year. Even videos of the machine operating (outside of EU owners) were sparse. There is the HP knowledge center but it's still lacking for the R series.

So I'm here to answer any questions you might have. Maybe this can serve as a future resource for other R1000 and R2000 owners.

Hello, I'm very happy to hear your availability to assist with R1000 repairs, knowledge, etc. I have a down R1000. We've worked on it for a while with HP and now I think I'm on my own. Have you had to repair any white ink issues?

You should probably tell a bit more about the issue.
