Hi all - quick question. My boss and I are planning on going to our paper coater's facility for a production run in the next month or so. Due to our manufacturing process, we buy a custom-made paper that requires special coating, but we are tweaking the coating still to make sure we lock in what...

Hey folks, I have an unusual problem both I cannot diagnose and neither can our IT guy. We have installed Onyx Thrive RIP on both a local PC here at my office, as well as a virtual PC that is located off-site at our corporate office, but which I can access remotely and control. Our one z6810 is...

Brief question.... am I crazy/missing something, or is this just a design flaw in this printer? When a cartridge runs out of ink mid-job, can the z6810 really not pick up where it left off, as its predecessor (the z6100) did? This is so ridiculous. When a cartridge runs out, I can no longer just...

So the waste management cable broke in the back of the printer (the metal connectors snapped off one another and one piece lost), and the cost is about $500 to replace and we are getting a new printer in like a week :/ the censor isn't necessary, is there anyway to get around that error message...

Title is my issue... I replaced the Magenta-Yellow print heads in my HP DesignJet z6810 on Tuesday, and it seems like since then, when I print anything from our normal Onyx RIP, no settings having been changed, the front 1" or so will be a lighter color than the rest of the print. In darker...

Hi everyone, Could anyone point us in the right direction of solving this problem, we're all of a sudden getting these black streaks / streaks of colour not cured on our printouts (see image). We've tried changing print-heads and the Ink Maintenance Kit so far but still getting bad results on...

Hi everyone! I have a DJ Z3100ps that I have refurbished. It looks to be working as well as can be, except that I can't get media length tracking to work at all. What do I mean - you know that barcode label that is printed on the Z2100 that identifies the media type and length? That - the...

Well I was wondering if anyone here ever had the curiosity or better yet gave-in to the curiosity to plug in a PCI VGA graphics card into one of the PCI slots on the HP Designjet Jesulin+LF mainboardPCA/formatter ie "motherboard"? The idea is that you could see the "initial" BIOS and other...

I have a HP Z6200 Designjet and a Graphtec FC8600-160 for sale. The Designjet has error 11:10 and needs a new trailing cable fix it. $2000 OBO The Graphtec needs a new carriage assembly(about $500). $3500 OBO Buyer can pick up. Otherwise buyer must arrange shipping.

Our printer is not working correctly. We are having trouble with LM/LC. Error is 58:10 "The printer's color sensor is not working well. Color reading operations may fail. If the problem persistsk call HP" I have attached photos of the diagnostic prints. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Hi Guys - Here's a rather silly question but we have a rush job that needs to be printed on retractable banner material, but we just switched from a solvent printer to a latex printer and unfortunately bought the wrong roll from Feller's. Their 10 mil Pop-Up material is not latex compatible but...

We recently bought a Designjet 5000ps from a company going out of business for a great price, but it didn't come with any cd's and when I download the driver from Hp's website, it is a self expanding zip file and when it expands, there is no setup or .exe file inside. When I read the "read me"...

Hi all, great forum and a lot of good information. This is why I post this in your US forum even if we are from Germany. We changed 3 years ago to HP 791 ink We used 6xHP9000 and 2x HP10000 printers. After a short time we had big problems with the heads like already explained in other topics...

Hello. Long time lurker but hopefully we can get some help! Our HP 9000 has been chugging along well, but a few weeks ago, in the middle of a print, it just stopped and said "Media Not Loaded". Now a few weeks went by and we are printing a wrap and the problem is back, on almost every print...

Greetings all, Our hp designjet 8000s is acting up. We have a new magenta printhead in it, but after a while the magenta will fade out on a larger print. We've replaced the ink and the printhead (and the print quality improved immensely when we put the new printhead in), but the magenta...

What are your thoughts on this printer?

Hello everyone. I am new to this forum. :Canada::thankyou:

Just installed a new carriage belt on my DesignJet 450c. I noticed when I turned on the plotter the carriage moves to the right end of the plotter but when it returns to the cradle it get stuck there moving slightly back and forth like if it stuck or something? Is there any calibration or...

I have a Kodak Matchprint 5542 printer that I bought used. I'm pretty sure this is basically a HP Designjet 5500 42" with an internal Kodak RIP. I got the printer to work with the HP driver. Flexisign prints for this printer as well, using the built in 5500 driver but I'd like to change the...

hi all, i'm looking to buy a printer for printing vehicle graphics, decals, signs and such. is the HP Designjet 130 any good for this? i've read that it can print up to 24" wide and is a thermal inkjet with 6-color inks and needs very little maintenance. i would like to check if there are...
