Recently we replaced the motherboard and switched out a failed hard drive in our HP FB500. After firing the printer up we noticed the heads were way out of calibration. After some research we attempted to perform the manual X calibrations (see attached photos) and found that we could get the...

I use a Scitex FB750 with Onyx rip software. I'm trying to figure out how to underflood only a portion of an image. I've attached a screenshot of the file I'm trying to accomplish this with. The portion outlined in red has a solid spot color behind it. I need that to underflood, but I need the...

I thought I posted this before, but can't find it. I have a Scitex HP FB750. Does anybody know a good method of cleaning overprint off a flatbed belt. We have years of overprint caked onto the belt, and we are trying to find a better way to get it cleaned off. Some of the overprint is so thick...

Hey guys! Love seeing all the awesome knowledge at this forum. Got a question. Looking to see options for ink system conversions, or if i should remain with the OEM. Anybody have experience with one or all of the options out there for the scitex series? specifically 500/550 & 700/750

I am having one heck of a time printing quality prints on styrene .04 with the Scitex FB700. The belt has ink buildup (which I have been working to get it off, it wasn't taken care of before I started this position) I know that could be part of the problem. But even on photo plus and fine text...

I got a new computer, and can't get my printer to talk to my computer. Running Onxy rip. My computer is not online, it is hardwired via ethernet directly to the HP Scitex FB550. What are the settings for the network adapter? and what are the settings for the printer? It should be under Manual...

For the Baltimore/DC area, we're looking for a local repair technician to diagnose and make repairs to this printer. https://www8.hp.com/us/en/commercial-printers/pagewide-industrial/fb750.html Does anyone know of a company or individual in the Baltimore/DC area that can come to our shop...

We have a FB500 and a F550 Scitex printer. We run FB794 ink in the 550 and FB250 ink in the 500. I am told the 250 is interchangeable with either printer, but the 794 ink is not. I can find nothing on HP, or anywhere else showing the differences on these two inks. Does anyone have any...

I have a new issue with my HP Scitex FB700. We are running corrugated plastic blanks, 4 side-by-side. We run thousands of these pieces on a regular basis, but last week the carriage began striking the material closest to the service-end and knocking it out of position as soon as the printing...

Does anyone know who i would talk to about moving a Scitex FB 700 from Ohio to North Carolina?

Every time my printer tries to measure the media, I get the following error: E-HB-102 Headboard incomplete camera data Technical Information: headboard not communicating properly with camera. Check/replace camera flex, headboard, camera assembly. Anyone experienced this issue before? I've...

I'm trying to find a way to run stuff through my fb700 and just have the UV lamps run without printing. I've had a couple times I have wanted to do this but never really pursued it. This time around we are trying to find a solution to laminate rigid media and there seems to be "UV Curable"...

As you can hopefully see from the image, there is an over spray in one direction and not the other. This image is flipped 90 degrees so the spray is horizontally not vertically. Ive done everything I can think of to fix it. manual calibrations of bidi, Head-head, jet map. I even wiped the...

I print a lot of full bleed boards on my Scitex FB700 and there is a lot of buildup in certain areas to the point where you can see the bumps through roll media. Although it is not effecting things yet in undoubtedly will in the near future and was wondering if anyone had any Useful tricks on...

I keep seeing these youtube videos where people are using the machine I work with daily (scitex FB 700) and printing on doors that have beveled centers that are a good 1/2" lower than the head height must be to clear the material. Having done this with stuff like guitar heads, it starts to...

Recently (6mo) got a Scitex FB700 and am loving it and have been able to troubleshoot most issues but have been having an ongoing battle with thin polystyrene. We had an old laminator that we were trying to faze out which I thought would never work but our sales team has basically eliminated...

Good Morning All, I have had an HP FB500 Scitex printer for about 8 months now. It has been a workhorse for me. The only complaint that I have received thus far is when it comes to double sided printing on Corrugated Plastic. My customers (real estate agents) get their signs printed double...
