hi On a 92% polyester fabric, the ink clears with water or rubbing with the other surface. how can i resolve it thanks

What is the durability/longevity of HP Scitex UV ink (FB550 printer) on rigid media like chromadek? IS the longevity similar on other rigid media like abs plastic and acrylics?

Hi. I'm looking for a media profile for the HP Durable Banner with Dupont Tyvek. I have a DesignJet 5500 DYE setup. I've tried all over HP's websites and my Google Fu is lacking. I've got one for the UV printer, but not the Dye. HP shows that the paper is compatible with the 5500 dye so hopefully it exists somewhere. Cheers

I'm getting these vibrant colors in my print that appear randomly and at different lengths and thicknesses. It doesn't appear to be banding and I can't find any info about it online anywhere. I have a picture but not sure how to add it to this...

I've created a business card in Photoshop CS5 on Windows 10. CMYK, 300 dpi, 3.5"w x 2"h. I did not make use of bleed, crop marks or any other special methods; simply designed a single card and copied it into a document for a 10-card layout. There are 2 pixels of space between each card for cutting. They print perfectly from my HP Officejet ink printer. The problem is they are 1/8" too wide at 3 5/8". I've tried adjusting the width of the original document to compensate, but nothing works. It prints either undersized or oversized. I can't get it to be exactly 3.5". Strangely, when I print a single test card it prints at exactly 3.5"w. But when I try printing the 10-card layout, they are all too wide. I'm stumped! Does anyone know what's going on? Is it Photoshop or my printer or Windows or what?? Thanks in advance for any help or direction on this issue.

I'm looking for swellable media for my Designjet 130; I've been using Instant-Dry Satin (Q7992A) which is OK, but does poorly with large fields of black. I've also used Premium Satin (CZ987A), which I strongly prefer, but I can't seem to find any through retail channels. Is it being discontinued? It's easily the best photo paper for the Designjet 130, so I'd appreciate either knowing where to buy it, or what its replacement is.

I am being told that it is back ordered until the end of March...can someone give me a list of distributors for wide format media in Ontario?

I've seen it recommended here - just a few months ago - that "swellable coated papers" would show much less rapid fading with the dye-based inks (such as the ones used in our T-series Designjet). However, I've been told that the Universal Satin Photo paper that I have been using is no longer available. What paper does HP currently offer that uses "swellable coating" technology? I use 42" and 36" roll widths. It's not practical for us to laminate the posters we're printing.
