Clear film question for large format designjet z6

I have a HP DesignJet Z6 44in plotter. Product # T8W16A.

Small sample piece

I am looking to get a small sample (3x3 inches or so) of C3876A. We are currently using a competitor product that was discontinued. Our research shows that this may be a viable replacement. Looking for a sample before we purchase a $220.00 roll.

Double sided printing

Is there any rolled material that is suitable for double-sided printing to produce large scale bound brochures?

HP Universal Adhesive Vinyl (C2T51A) on HP DJ Z5600

Hello!

Z6100 USB input "not enabled" connection issue

Hello,

HP 15-oz Prime Double-sided Blockout Banner

I am very frustrated with this product, it consistently jams when printing the second side with my HP Latex 360. If I try to reverse the roll and print on the other side first it jams. It seams the smooth side will stall in the fusing area and cause jams and mess up the prints even if you use the take up reel. I am using the recommended profile and this stuff just will not work. I have wasted a lot of time and money on this banner material. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

printing on silk

Does HP manufacturer a large format silk product for inkjet? If not, does HP have any guidance on using silk projects in a Designjet? I currently use the 1700, 44".

Some HP Light Fabric rolls are are defective and cause head strikes

We have been using the HP Light Fabric for many years with the HP 360 Latex, and we have found that specific LOT numbers are defective. It appears that the material is not evenly wound around the core, causing the fabric to slowly develop a wrinkle around the center area of the roll during printing. It takes about 6 to 8 feet of printing until you get a head strike.
When we first noticed this a few years back, we naturally concluded that it was a user error. In addition, the issue went away for a significant length of time, only to occasionally come back. However, we have been experiencing this problem consistently with the last few rolls, and it is very aggravating. We have to go back and forth with our vendors, asking for specific LOT numbers to be excluded from our orders. Simply, not good.
If anyone knows of a solution, it would be greatly appreciated.

Z6200 Not printing square

Our old Z6200 60 Inch has developed a problem where it starts to print out of square on long jobs.
After the initial media loading (180 g matt paper), it prints fine. But anything longer than 1 metre starts to drift out of square.
I feel it is the paper feed rollers at fault, is there any adjustments that I could perform?

What substrate profile should i use for plush textile?

I have a fabric i need to print on, I dont know if changing my profile from my other textiles will make a huge difference. But what happens is the color looks washed and the print is not sharp.
