Looking to sell my fb500. It comes with production house, the roll to roll attachment, the 4 media tables shown in the pics (2 small connected to the printer and the 2 large folded up) and an extra set of print heads. This machine is still up and running as we still use it here and there just...
54" model. As is parts machine or fix it! Needs new motherboard and possibly carriage axis motor. It was getting a lot of carriage axis faults for a few weeks and then one day the motherboard started smoking and wouldn't boot but before that it was a reliable beast. Pick up only. Located in So...
Hi all!
We are making a couple 120" x 72" signs for an apartment complex to go onto their existing wooden frame. pic attached. We already submitted the artwork/estimate and got approvals but now apparently we can't get 4x10 sheets of the Lusterboard we quoted for. After being turned down by...
HI! I am hoping somebody knows whats going on here. Wherever the media advances, it skips about 2" of cutting as shown in the pic. It doesnt just advance too far and start where it left off - it actually skips those 2 inches. Letter shown should say ORSI and I marked in blue where the...
Need help identifying this issue. We make a lot of these backlit sign faces and this hasn't happened before. Contractor customer has not returned the face he only sent me pictures so far. Could it be faulty roll of vinyl? Caused by the current heat wave we are having in California? Can the...

We've been having this very odd problem lately with our HP Latex 360 printing raster incorrectly. It looks as if the media advance is slipping and the prints come out blurry and misaligned. Through trouble shooting we have isolated the issue to these 2 things: print file (eps, pdf, doesn't...
I want to remove the white ink option from my Scitex 500. I just don't use it much and the automatic cleaning cycle is wasting more ink than I print per ink box. I am very handy and tech-y. I do all the maintenance on my solvent and latex printers. Wondering if anybody has done this...
Hi all.
I flushed my lines and added new Nazdar 710 series UV inks to my UV printer in 2 of the lines (magenta and white) to test out. Now those nozzles are completely clogged. Has anybody else had this issue? I see Nazdar has 260 series UV inks that are designed for the DX5 printheads but...
Hi all,
Scitex was printing fine until at the very end of print (48" wide) the carriage hit the ACM substrate on the corner at the service end due to table being bumped at back end and substrate shift. Now it will not print. I keep getting error to clean or replace encoder strip. I inspected...
Does anybody have experience with this machine? I did a manual printhead flush with flushing solution to clear some nozzles. Afterward yellow refused to print. I though I might have gotten some air in the line so I flushed the line too and refilled with ink. Still nothing. I changed the...
Hi everybody! I recall there being something in the software for the summa flatbed that maps out the variances in depth on the cutting area to give a better cut but I cant seem to find it. It migth've been on another machine, but I figured I'd ask here because I'm not finding it it myself...
Hi guys I am running Wasatch 7.2 for an HP Latex 360 and my print queue has a big pause between jobs. Does anybody know how to eliminate this gap or at least cut it down some? I used to run Wasatch 6.5 with an HP L25500 on the same computer and it always printed back to back with almost no...
Hi we just got an HP Latex 360 and are using Wasatch. When printing using the correct substrate and profile I am getting muddy greens. It seems as though it is mixing in magenta through the RIP even though the CMYK value has none. I am using 3M IJ35C-10. If I print using an Orafol profile...
