    Does the diagnostic pop up automatically after you replace it and enter it then or do you go into diagnostic in menu after install?

    Hi all, big Signs 101 fan. I've got a HP Latex 365 that has been determined to have a bad chip reader in the Optimizer ink slot. I opened the side up and it looks straight forward enough to replace. I am out of warranty and have serviced my other HP equipment in the past. Part number is...

  11. Discussion Fb500 red

    Graysquirrel, are you calibrating the FB500? I've tied a number of time with Onyx and the pattern is so small that I find it next to imposable to calibrate with my handheld spectrometer.
  12. HP Scitex 500/550/700 Cyan Overspray?

    I call HP support directly. It's a know issue, they don't call it bad ink, they call it underperforming!! They need just a little info and will overnight a new ink. They will include a new filter if you press them.
  13. Retractable banner material

    We also use Briteline Rollup for our HP 365 latex. I looked up the Ultraflex Supersmooth PET 13oz on the LexJet site, I'm always looking for the material at the best price. Didn't list Latex as a compatible printer, is that the case? The Ultraflex Supersmooth PET 13oz is a better price.
  14. Question Replace encoder strip on HP FB500. Also replacing the Shopvac on service station.

    Thanks for the replies. I've got a neighbor at the end of the building that's a big cleaning service that thinks they can replace the bushings on the shop vac. I ordered a encoder, what I'm understanding from the replies is it come with instructions how to pull out the old one.

  16. Question New HP L365 having issues printing to 3M gloss materials

    Hello: Just replaced my HP L260 (almost 10 years old) with a new HP L365. It came DOA but that's another story for another time. It prints great (now that it's fixed) but I'm having issues with gloss 3M IJ40 and IJ180. I'm getting what appears to be a stretching pattern that kind of snakes it...
  17. FujiFilm AcuityLED 1600 - Chip Resetter

    You can go into the printer and change the date on the printer which fools it into letting you use expired dates on the ink. I wouldn't recommend using very old ink, but a way to use up slightly expired ink.
  18. Question Profiles for Acuity LED 1600

    I've recently acquired a used Acuity LED 1600. I downloaded the driver from Onyx but it only has a test profile. It way overprints and the test pattern is dark. I've looked online for media profiles with no luck. Any suggestions?
