  1. hp designjet 5500ps print head question?

    They are disposable. Bin them and fit new ones.
  2. HP latex 360 ink droplets on print media

    We had trouble with magenta/lt magenta heads and our dealer came and installed firmware which solved the issue.
  3. HP 360 banding help

    We had problems with magenta and light magenta heads failing prematurely. Our supplier came and installed a beta firmware which seems to have cleared up the issue.
  4. Wraped edges vs cut

    If you hold your knife at an angle away from the panel when flush cutting it leaves enough film to cover the edge. As long as you can't see the paint on an advertising wrap nobody is going to complain and it will hold up as well as wrapping around.
  5. Geekwraps service.

    If anyone else finds Geekwraps impossible to source we got a few WetEdge squeegees and they seem as good as if not better than Geekwraps.
  6. new to wraps looking for a dat bit of info

    Just make sure your images will be 72 dpi or whatever you choose AT FULL SIZE.
  7. new to wraps looking for a dat bit of info

    300dpi at full size is crazy. That's one of your problems right there. You'll get acceptable results from 72dpi in most cases. We use Illustrator and most vans fit at full scale on it's art board. If not go 2:1 scale.
  8. L360 Ink Pooling

    Some of the patches put down when they do a pattern aren't for measurement and simply to blast some ink through the heads to clear them.
  9. Need help for ink print problem

    We just had our dealer install beta firmware on our 360 due to problems with magenta and light magenta heads not firing properly. The colour bars down the gutter would show fuzzy M & lm. We replaced 4 magenta heads before contacting them and finding out about this issue. Try the head...
  10. Very unusual print problem, help needed

    The test prints look fine. How many passes are you using? Those printers struggle to lay down enough ink at low pass settings.
  11. bug guts, how to remove?

    Lay some wet rags on them for ten or fifteen minutes to soften them up.
  12. Some more b4 and afters

    Very nice.
  13. Roland and Latex

    The only thing I miss about Rolands is their media loading and handling. In every other respect HP latex machines are better.
  14. 12x18 magnets

    We just did 450 magnets a little bigger than that. Nice profitable job. Kept a casual employee busy for nearly a week. Total weight was around 360kg. Just pack them in liftable batches.
  15. HP26500 - warrior media jam, advice?

    I sometimes miss the feed simplicity of our old Rolands.
  16. Geekwraps service.

    Well I finally heard back from them. It's all too hard apparently and they will refund my money. Shame. They are damn fine squeegees. Anyone tried the Wetedge squeegee? They look similar and are available in our own fine country. Teflon squeegee with microfibre edge, about the same price...
  17. Geekwraps service.

    I get stuff from the States all the time. Motorbike tyres arrive in less than a week for example.
  18. Geekwraps service.

    I've ordered from Geekwraps before and the stuff arrived alright. Tracking shows the package in Fort Lauderdale. The same as it did last week when I emailed about it. Sure stuff happens but if one of my deliveries was 2 months late I'd send another on the fastest option possible, not fob...
  19. Geekwraps service.

    USPS International Priority Express. I'm glad they didn't send them regular air freight.
  20. Geekwraps service.

    I ordered a bunch of their admittedly very nice squeegees two months ago. Charged me $56 for freight but with international orders you get that. They still haven't arrived. So I chased them up recently and apparently it's my fault. "Unfortunately, once the package leaves our office, it's...
