  1. Epson s80600 random ink drops

    Hey all, I have an Epson s80600. I'm getting random black dots and sometimes small lines of black ink mainly on the left side of the print. It is consistent on the left side mainly. Head height changes did not fix the problem. Printheads were recently replaced. I did cleanings through the...
  2. Specialty materials - who and why?

    I'm looking to change vendors for our eco-solvent printable specialty materials such as Holographic, Glitter, Gold, Chrome etc. Who are you using and why do you use them? Can you bleed cut those materials when printed with eco-solvent? TYIA!
  3. Looking for a printable holographic material for eco solvent

    I am looking for a vendor with an eco-solvent printable holographic vinyl that meets the criteria below. Anyone have experience? Looking for 54" wide rolls (not interested in the Halliday stuff) but a smaller width roll won't be overlooked. Also looking for a glitter and possibly other...
  4. Mamage Eco Solvent Printer - What RIP?

    So a buddy of mine purchased an eco solvent printer from China. The brand is Mamage. CMYK. Not built great, but has the DX5 printhead. The software sent with the printer is absolutely horrendous. Its like an overwhelming print driver you would use with your home printer. I was told Flexi...
  5. Printing Bounding Box Around Registration Marks

    I am trying to print a white (or grey) bounding box around the black Graphtec registration marks, within Flexi 21. There is an option to print those boxes in any colors, to help aid in reading the marks when printing on highly reflective materials. My problem is I require white ink to be...
  6. Printing White + Color in Flexi 21

    For the life of me, I cannot get this Epson s80600 to lay white ink down. The steps i've taken are below. If anyone can see that I may be missing a step or a setting, please chime in! Epson s80600L Flexi Sign & Print 21 Load raster image (PNG) into Flexi Sign & Print 21 Add a solid underbase...
  7. ICC Profile for Epson s80600L & Flexi 21

    I just had an s80600L installed and I am using Flexi 21. They loaded a bunch of CMYK only profiles into the Epson Edge Dashboard (not sure why CMYK only), because I am running CMYK LC LM LK R OR + White. When I reached out to them, I got nothing but crickets. The tech had some time and...
  8. auto takeup reel not working on Epson s80600

    I recently took delivery of an Epson s80600. The training is coming when the second one arrives, so the training was very basic and we did not go over the take up reel. I feel confident enough to use it without the training. So I set it up and clicked it to auto. For some reason, it does not...
  9. Head strikes while printing with HP Latex 800W

    I'm noticing markings of what appears to be mild head strikes that run vertically through the print, but only on one side, and about 10-12 inches inward from the edge (your left if your standing in front of the printer). Its intermittent throughout 100 ft roll, but this has never happened before...
  10. HP Latex 670 a hoax?

    Rumor has it HP was going to release a 64" roll to roll latex printer that has the capability to print white ink. Rumor is, they're dubbing it the "670" with a hefty price tag to go with it. Anyone hear any news on the release date?
  11. Any tips on printing to the take up reel for print and cut?

    So I'm kinda stuck on this whole take-up reel. I'm using it to print multiple jobs at once (print and cut jobs) but no matter the winding direction, it seems that I have to un-roll it off the core and manually roll it onto another core for it to go through the graphtec correctly for print and...
  12. HP Latex Printer Cross Cut Not Cutting Through

    I have an HP Latex 115. After printing a job on SAV, I always hit the "scissor" icon to advance the media and then cut it off of the roll. The other day I noticed that it did not cut all the way through the media. This was the first time it happened, and has been happening periodically ever...
  13. help with ICC and color management needed (will pay!)

    I have been getting inconsistent color with my hp latex printer for a while now. Below lists what I have done thus far, and I am at the point where I may need to adjust some color curves to get grays to come out gray, and not a purplish hue. The lighter neutral grays seem to be the biggest...
  14. GRAYS COMING OUT PURPLISH - HP LATEX & FLEXI

    My HP Latex 115 is printing grays with a purple tint, blacks do not seem as rich as they were a couple months ago. I've been working with HP about this but I am getting nowhere. I already replaced the LC/LM print head and the Optimizer print head. Same result. This was not happening when I...
  15. Colors coming out grainy except for black

    I have an HP Latex 115 with Flexi 19, purchased brand new a few weeks ago. Printing on SAV, 12 pass, 120% ink density, 18% optimizer. The blacks print great, red doesn't look so bad, but all the other colors seem to be very grainy. I know this has been brought up so many times, but noone has...
  16. How do I add a repeat bleed to my image in Flexi 19?

    For print and cut, is there an easier way to add a bleed that repeats the existing colors of the image? I see the bleed option in Flexi under properties tab, but when I preview I do not see any bleed added to the image. Am I doing something incorrectly?
  17. Printable Holographic Adhesive Vinyls?

    I've been having a hard time finding holographic printable adhesive vinyls (for stickers/decals). Wondering if anyone has had experience with this, printing with latex printers. Pros/Cons? Experiences? Thoughts?
  18. What vinyl are you printing your stickers onto, and why?

    I’m moving into larger format printing with an HP Latex. I’m currently using a thick Calendared vinyl that’s 11 mil and I put a 3 mil laminate over it. I like the thick durability of the stickers, but this vinyl isn’t cheap and it doesn’t come in 54” rolls. I’ve heard HP Prime Gloss is a...
  19. Suggestions SummaCut D140R or Graphtec FC9000? Perf Cut Adhesive Vinyl

    What I need: Perf cuts (clean & smooth), on self adhesive vinyl. Will be custom shapes, not just circles or squares. Sizing from 2" and up. (print and cut) My question is, will the SummaCut D140R be able to handle this task? Does the Flexi software allow you to run multi-pass, like the...
  20. Suggestions Which Windows Desktop Computer To Run Flexi?

    I've been a Mac user for a decade. It is now time to go back to Windows so I can run the HP Flexi Print & Cut RIP and have everything wired via LAN. Does anyone have a recommendation on which desktop to run Windows 10 on? I found some minimum requirements as for specs. I've been out of the...
