Hello all :-) I'm getting an error 58:10 on my L28500. The error is accompanied by a message stating "The printer's color sensor is not working well. Color reading operations may fail." Anybody know how to address this without calling in an HP tech? Perhaps something needs to be cleaned...

Making Signs!

Call me old school, but i poke one hole on bottom of rivet, heat it, then take one lap around it with a squeegee and onto the next. Looks great, stays down if using cast. I've checked the work after a few years and looks great still. Used to worry about the vinyl shrinking over time and...

Sorry Rich I'm not aware of any vendors willing to sell small amounts of that material. You could ask Grimco or Fellers for a sample roll might be enough to do what you have to? But I am curious if anybody has experience with the IJ180MC vs the IJ180cV3? Maybe that's not the right question for...

+1 for the Seal 62, great machine! I also have an old Ledco that will laminate up to 60" wide. Rollers are in perfect shape, all in all in good condition. It's been used a ton but still works fine. Downside is no heat assist and there is a safety switch that is very sensitive. So if the...

Thanks, I might need to find something similar that doesn't have a washer head so that it fits into a screw cap, but at least now I know that there is a coated option out there that will last 5-6 years :-)

It's called What The Font, they used to have it for Android but I think not anymore. Works OK but not always a good solution :-)

Thanks, I just checked out McFeely's website and found the "NoCoRode". Thanks always good to hear from somebody who has actually used them, cheers!

used app on my iphone to try to recognize the font...came up with "Snasm(Typodermic)" which looks really close though not perfect.

Perfect, I actually only need (1) for the 28500 series. I'll PM you an offer, thanks.

Hi folks, typically I use stainless steel screws for all outdoor applications. But I'm always tempted to use a coated decking screw, primarily because I like the aggressive threads and can find them in long lengths (3-4"). Does anyone know anything about coated decking screws? How long they...

Hi folks, wondering if anyone knows of a reasonable source for the media edge holders for my L28500. I've included a pic. I've talked to my vendor who can't get them and says that they are apparently discontinued from HP? This blows my mind, the printer isn't that old. I've found them here...

Thanks for that insight, I agree to some degree. Although in my case the thermistors were really caked up with dried ink, since I've cleaned them I literally haven't had a single issue and have really put the machine to the test with heavy coverage prints. Although I'm certain the problem will...

HaHa! Loved that show Highlander....by the way things are going you and I will be dueling it out for the last soul haha! Anyway, switched the thermistors and did see an improvement in cyan (turns out it's actually light cyan, so I'm working with the LcLm set). But I have not seen the dropout...

Thanks for the help...I'll run the test and let you know how it goes. Really can't thank you enough, cheers!

So just to clarify...when you say "remember to also swap cabel positions" do you mean swap the positions of the data cables that run to the head? Or just be sure to swap the cable positions of the ink thermistors on the head board? Thanks

Thanks GP_oz I'll run that test and let you know what my results are. I may have a question or two regarding how to go about it, but I'm going to wait until tomorrow to dive deeper. Thanks again!!

I have a roughly 6 year old FB950 and the cyan drops out after about 8' of printing. The power supply, e box, and mother board are all about 1.5 years old. The heads are about 2 years old and showing very little issues (barely noticeable weak center jetting on 1 cyan and 1 black head). Here's...

Figured it out in case any others are having the same problem....there are relays in the bottom of the box and the smallest piece of dust/etc can get in there and interrupt the connection when the relay engages. Solution = clean it up real good, blow it out with air, tap on the relays quite a...

I researched this as it happened to me. I believe they make their money by placing the order, receiving the order, having you arrange the international shipping, and then disputing the charge on their credit card. The end result...they end up with a product that they can sell on the internet...
