The collector winds in the wrong direction (LX800 only)

Page 49 highlights

Substrate issues The collector winds in the wrong direction (LX800 only) 1. Check that the winding direction is set correctly in the HP Internal Print Server. 2. Check that there is no obstacle blocking the collector's two optical sensors. The collector detaches the substrate from the spindle (LX800 only) Here are some possible explanations. ● The winding direction has been set wrongly. ● The collector has been loaded wrongly. ● The loop shaper is missing and there is too much tension. There is skew or telescoping on the collector (LX800 only) This may happen if the substrate is misaligned or if the loop shaper is of the wrong length. The substrate has jammed on the collector (LX800 only) Here are some possible explanations. ● Too much substrate on the collector. The maximum diameter of the output roll is 230 mm (9 in) for outwards winding, or 150 mm (5.9 in) for inwards winding. ● The substrate is misaligned. ● The loop shaper is of the wrong length. The substrate sticks to the platen When the substrate sticks to the platen, the most likely causes are excessive heat and excessive vacuum. Therefore, try decreasing the drying temperature or the vacuum. For information on how to adjust printer settings, see the User's guide. The ink is still wet when the substrate emerges 1. Check that the substrate you have loaded is the same type that you have selected in the HP Internal Print Server. 2. Reduce the ink limits. 3. Increase temperature settings for drying and curing. 4. Check that the curing plates are in the correct position for the current substrate. 5. If you find that some areas on the left side (LX800) or between the curing lamps will not dry after the above steps, try decreasing the airflow.

The collector winds in the wrong direction (LX800 only)
1.
Check that the winding direction is set correctly in the HP Internal Print Server.
2.
Check that there is no obstacle blocking the collector's two optical sensors.
The collector detaches the substrate from the spindle
(LX800 only)
Here are some possible explanations.
The winding direction has been set wrongly.
The collector has been loaded wrongly.
The loop shaper is missing and there is too much tension.
There is skew or telescoping on the collector (LX800
only)
This may happen if the substrate is misaligned or if the loop shaper is of the wrong length.
The substrate has jammed on the collector (LX800 only)
Here are some possible explanations.
Too much substrate on the collector. The maximum diameter of the output roll is 230 mm (9 in)
for outwards winding, or 150 mm (5.9 in) for inwards winding.
The substrate is misaligned.
The loop shaper is of the wrong length.
The substrate sticks to the platen
When the substrate sticks to the platen, the most likely causes are excessive heat and excessive
vacuum. Therefore, try decreasing the drying temperature or the vacuum.

The ink is still wet when the substrate emerges
1.
Check that the substrate you have loaded is the same type that you have selected in the HP
Internal Print Server.
2.
Reduce the ink limits.
3.
Increase temperature settings for drying and curing.
4.
Check that the curing plates are in the correct position for the current substrate.
5.
If you find that some areas on the left side (LX800) or between the curing lamps will not dry after
the above steps, try decreasing the airflow.
