  1. Discussion I've owned an HP R1000 since April 2019, ask me anything

    Can the R series print on mesh - with or without a backer?
  2. L560 - Yellow nozzles seem to clog fast?

    When running the force drop test, I've noticed that my yellow nozzles seem to get very high values relative to the others. All the other nozzles are between 0 to 20, but yellow is 131 and 101. The odd thing is that both the yellow printheads are the least used with only about 6-700 mL of use...
  3. Bare minimum to charge / ask during pandemic? Lowest price you would comfortably go down to??

    Speaking in general and not on this particular customer given what you later found out, but what if you charged your normal price, but only took payment for what the discounted price would be now? The remainder will be on your receivables to collect later if both of you are still in business...
  4. How did you learn to troubleshoot?

    Curious, but for those who have learned to service HP printers pretty well, how did you go about it? I've read through the troubleshooting manual and watched all the videos HP uploaded, but since we bought the printer used, I never had any formal training. Did anyone here go through something...
  5. CWT or Foster cutter?

    What brands are these?
  6. CWT or Foster cutter?

    Unfortunately the Cuttarri cuts about 2.5mm offset from the ruler line, is this normal with straight cutters?
  7. CWT or Foster cutter?

    I ordered a Cuttarri 64" to evaluate before getting the 83" as well. Too bad it doesn't get larger.
  8. CWT or Foster cutter?

    Im looking for a linear cutter of at least 64". We cut a lot of soft material like textiles and Foster mistakenly sold us a table edge rotary cutter that was awful. They later said that it was not the right cutter and we should have bought a Javelin. Our local supply shop also sells CWT cutters...
  9. Question Is my 360 a lemon, and should I buy another HP?

    Im not familiar with this. How does it work?
  10. Question Is my 360 a lemon, and should I buy another HP?

    What is the outdoor non-laminated ink life for the other printers before fading occurs? We use HP because its suppose to be good for 3-5 years. We haven't had anything up for that long yet but so far so good.
  11. Can you run a Large format off a laptop?

    I wouldn't recommend trying to multitask using the same computer as its printing. If one of your other programs causes a crash, then you lose your print. Printer-capable computers are so cheap that its better to just get a dedicated system like an old thinkpad.
  12. Suggestions anyone use laser measuring device?

    Most handhelds will promise 1/16" (+/- 1.5mm). Some will promise +/- 1mm but tend to cost several times more. I use them to measure for my miter saw.
  13. Can you run a Large format off a laptop?

    I run my 560 with an old T530 I bought on ebay for $100. Rips fine. Runs fine. You dont need something super sleek and thin. Old used workstation laptops are very cost effective.
  14. Sales tax question

    in CA you don't just provide a sellers permit but have to fill out a form specifying what you are purchasing and what business you are in. If you have something similar, I'm not sure how a physician is going to be able to fill that form out truthfully. But I agree with others who say to not...
  15. Finding Skilled Shop Operators and Designers... Business Growth.

    Is training them yourself out of the question?
  16. HP Latex Ink Collector Foam Kits

    Thx, but I'm not looking to buy them at MSRP. My ink supplier can sell those to me at that price if I needed it. I'm just inquiring to see if anyone has any at a discount cause it came with the printer or something.
  17. (Latex 560/570) Which direction do you spool your takeup?

    There's no plastic smell? That's PVC coated isnt it?
  18. (Latex 560/570) Which direction do you spool your takeup?

    What materials are you printing? I definitely get a smell with anything PVC based.
  19. HP Latex Ink Collector Foam Kits

    If anyone has the foam kits for 365/560/570s that they don't use and would like to sell, I'm interested. They don't need to be brand new, just usable.
  20. HP 365 latex starting to get head crashes

    What controls the rate of advance of the media? Does it have anything to do with the spool motors? I'd imagine not since the substrate saver would make it a bit irregular and not advance evenly?
