  1. Profiling a L26500

    With 2 different RIPS that I created profiles for the L25500 my total ink limit was usually in the 180% to 170% range. Also you should not be laying any the light inks downs from the 70 to 100 range. If you post a screen shot of your light ink curves we can give you a better idea of where those...
  2. New Firmware (6.0.1.6) for L25500

    To find out what those error messages are, log on to your printer web page (printer ip address) with a browser. Printers not on right now so I am not sure which tab it under, but with little hunting you should find where you can access the error info. My guess you RIP/computer is no longer...
  3. Laminator eating material...(yep another one of those)

    This is what he is talking about on proper webbing of the bottom roller. It should match the webbing of the laminate on top and have relative the same tension. This keeps the printed substrate smooth and flat as it goes through the laminater and does not allow for sideways movement as long as...
  4. Laminators

    That ez taper looks like a piece of junk. Don't know what the price is but it looks to fit into the diage category. If you like ruining jobs at the laminate stage looks like it would work for that. No brakes for tension for the laminate or the vinyl substrate. No idler rollers for webbing...
  5. New Firmware (6.0.1.6) for L25500

    Hopefully it fixes the strange things that were happening with the previous firmware. Haven't seen anything strange yet but I haven't let it go into a long sleep yet. That is where some on the strange things happened.
  6. L26500 sheet printing capability?

    Not designed to print on sheets. I suppose you might be able to fool it by taping sheets to a roll.
  7. Scratch / abrasion marks - HP L25550 Latex on Oracal 3640 Adhesive Vinyl

    Always seems you need more vacuum in the wintertime for some reason. I have had to increase my vacuum on a lot of things lately.
  8. L210 Vs. L260

    But if your planning on doing a over-laminating you would certainly want a take-up.
  9. Laminator eating material...(yep another one of those)

    But even with the $20,000 to $30,000 machines if you don't web your vinyl your still going to have problems because no vinyl is going to lay flat enough on its own. When heat is applied in the printing process it is even less likely to lay flat. On top of that why would you apply tension on the...
  10. Laminator eating material...(yep another one of those)

    Just to clarify, I am talking about feeding the printing vinyl on the bottom take off roll, webbed around the bottom idler and the bottom pinch roller with the proper tension on the vinyl roll to match the tension of the over-laminate. The issues you are facing would disappear this way but like...
  11. Laminator eating material...(yep another one of those)

    I guess you can run it however you want. On page 11 of your manual is how I would do it and I would think it would eliminate the problems you seem to be asking about. This is the way I always run vinyl on our Seal 6100 whether it for over-lam or loaded from the top for laminating to large sign...
  12. Laminator eating material...(yep another one of those)

    First off I don't understand why your printed vinyl is just hanging there loose. That is just asking for trouble if that is how you're feeding it. In Attachment 94877 I see what appears to be an idler roller under the lower pinch roller and in front of that is a spool of something. Not sure...

  14. How is this even possible?

    Don't forget this possibility. We had a guy on here a few months ago bragging about his failing business getting a government grant. After getting the grant how was his failing business going to be attracting more business? He won't need to make as much profit as those that are doing business...
  15. Blues looking purple on HP L25500

    So after linearising and creating a custom profile how are you blues now?
  16. Blues looking purple on HP L25500

    No matter how much you bang it into their heads some people just don't get it.
  17. Blues looking purple on HP L25500

    What RIP? What profiling solution? With proper profiling and color management your colors should be very close to being accurate. Royal Blue - what is that? Do you have a Pantone equivalent?
  18. Color isn't printing correctly

    Make sure your nozzles are all firing and then create a new profile.
  19. LX850 Color Consistency Problem

    I hear what you saying. Latex is much more dependent on the media coats to stay consistent. Sometime your just better off creating a new profile. But if you think Latex is bad you should try digital presses where you need to calibrate during a run and throughout the day if it is a color...
  20. LX850 Color Consistency Problem

    Maybe the color was not correct on the on the truck in the first place. If that is the case getting it correct now is going to be next to impossible. That is what happens when you don't have good color management policies in place and calibrate color/re-linearize on a consistent basis.
