  2. L26500 Funnel problems

    these printers are to smart for their own good I swear. I'll take the tube and the funnel out and give them a good cleaning I guess.. So if I get the funnel not detected does that automatically mean I need a new maintenance kit? should it just say replace maintenance kit??
  3. L26500 Funnel problems

    the problem is I'm not replacing the the thing I'm just trying to fit it. If I go through the steps on the printer it wants me to replace the Tube as well but I just say no. then it says cancelling ink maintenance. It's not telling the part is no good it's just saying it can't detect it.. it's...

  9. Shop vehicle.

    I need some input here on use of personal vehicle as a "shop vehicle". Right now I use my personal vehicle as the shop vehicle, I take to installs, use it to take trips to the dump, take it on over night road trips and out of town jobs.

  10. Need some info on the HP 26500.

    Just a little update.. Printer is up and running everything looks great so far. 1st wrap is coming off as we speak should be laminating tomorrow.

  11. Need some info on the HP 26500.

    Great thanks guys.. I'll probably have more questions once I get this up and running. From what I've read the learning curve is pretty steep with this one because of the heat and different profile settings. I'll mainly be using it for vehicle graphics on 3M material and banners. I believe ONYX...

    I just recently replaced a sign I did about 4-5 years ago. it's roughly 16'x24' 4mm ACM we mounted it directly to the siding using metal siding screws. Took the old one down and installed the new one in less then 2 hrs.
  18. Cutting - there's got to be a better way!

    1st thing I'd ask is why are you using sissors to cut in between prints,, just use you ruler and knife 1/2 the work right there.. mayeb you need a bigger table? Keencut
