  6. Aftermarket 789 print heads for HP L25500 - any thoughts?

    Hi Folks, I've had two cyan/ltcyan heads spit the dummy in a couple of months - nothing appeared wrong, but the L25500 was convinced they were no good, so I changed them both. The printer was happy, but the 2 new C/LC heads were constantly printing bandings getting lighter. Head cleans and...

    Hi Folks, after buying an HP L25500, (60"), the seller used Onyx as a rip and was keeping that for their next printer.

    Okay so for a couple of weeks my machine has been squeaking mostly when in backs up a substrate. This morning I oiled all the rollers and the print-head carriage. It is still making the noise. I think it may be coming from where the substrate roll is loaded. Does anyone know what I can do to...
