Print the Image Diagnostics Print The Image Diagnostics Print consists of patterns designed to highlight print quality problems. It helps you to check whether you have a print quality problem, and if you have, what the cause of the problem is and how to resolve it.
If you have horizontal misalignment, you will see something like this: If you have vertical misalignment, you will see something like this: If you have bidirectional misalignment, you will see something like this: Corrective action 1.
Interpret Image Diagnostics part 2 The purpose of part 2 is to test whether the printheads and the paper advance mechanism are working correctly. This part of the print should not be used to check for color consistency or accuracy. Banding Banding has occurred when you see repetitive horizontal bands within the printed image.
Horizontal bands across strips of one color only If a printhead is faulty, you will see horizontal bands across strips of one color only; or at least the horizontal bands will be much more noticeable in one color than in the others.
Here are three examples of a black rectangle in close-up, showing the fine lines of which it is made: In the first two examples above, there are so many missing lines that the printhead may be faulty. In the third case there are only a few missing lines, which are acceptable, because the printer can compensate for such minor problems.

Prints do not stack properly in the basket [4500] NOTE This topic applies to the HP Designjet 4500 Printer series only. ● Prints at the bottom of the basket may be damaged by the weight of the prints above them. For this reason, we recommend to collect prints from the basket before it becomes full.
CAUTION If you want to turn off the printer, you are strongly recommended to use the Power button on the front panel before using the switch at the rear or disconnecting the power cable. 258 Chapter 17 The problem is... (paper topics) ENWW The problem is.
18 The problem is... (print quality topics) ● General advice ● Banding (horizontal lines across the image) ● Lines are missing or thinner than expected ● Solid bands or lines printed over the .
General advice When you have any print quality problem: ● To achieve the best performance from your printer, use only genuine manufacturer's supplies and accessories, whose reliability and performance have been thoroughly tested to give trouble- free performance and best-quality prints.
Lines are missing or thinner than expected 1. Check that the line thickness and color settings are correct in your application. 2. Check that you are using appropriate print quality settings. See Choose print quality settings. 3. If the problem persists, clean the printheads.
In each case the recommended procedure is as follows: 1. Clean the electrical connections of the printhead that seems to be responsible (in this example, the magenta printhead). See Clean a printhead's electrical connections. 2. Clean the printheads.
Try changing to a heavier paper type: we recommend HP Heavyweight Coated Paper or HP Productivity Photo Gloss for printing dense colors. See also Choose print quality settings. The print smudges when touched The black ink pigment can smudge when touched by a finger or pen.
Try the following suggestions to avoid this problem: ● Use a recommended paper type (see Supported paper types). ● If the image you are printing contains intense color, try using HP Heavyweight Coated Paper.
To avoid this problem: 1. The easiest solution is to select the Extended Margins option in the driver, the Embedded Web Server, or the front panel. This means that the area of the paper affected by the problem (at the start of the page) will no longer be printed on.
● The borders of colored blocks are wrongly colored. To correct this kind of problem: 1. Align the printheads. See Align the printheads. 2. Check that you are using appropriate print quality settings. See Choose print quality settings. Lines are discontinuous If your lines are broken in the following way: 1.
3. Check that the paper type selected in the front panel is the same as the paper type you are using. 4. Perhaps you have adjusted the drying time at the front panel to speed up the printer output. Select the icon, then Select drying time , and make sure it is set to Optimal .
Using Automatic PANTONE Calibration (the best choice) In order to use Automatic PANTONE Calibration, you need an application that recognizes the PANTONE colors, and a calibrated PostScript printer. The Automatic PANTONE Calibration facility emulates PANTONE Solid Coated colors only (suffix C).
3. Ensure that Color Calibration is turned on. At the front panel of the HP Designjet 4000 series, select the icon, then Printer configuration > Color calibration > On . 4. Load the printers with similar paper types. 5. Ensure that the Paper Type setting on the front panel corresponds to the paper you have loaded.
Printing the same HP-GL/2 file The situation is that you have produced an HP-GL/2 file (also known as a PLT file) using the HP- GL/2 driver installed for one printer, and you intend to send the same file to both printers. 1. Ensure that both printers have been updated to the latest firmware version.
19 The problem is... (image error topics) ● The print is completely blank ● The output contains only a partial print ● The image is clipped ● The image is in one portion of the printing area .
The print is completely blank If the front-panel graphic language setting is Automatic (the default), try the other settings: PostScript for a PostScript file, HP-GL/2 for an HP-GL/2 file, etc. (see Change the graphic language setting). Then send the file again.
There is another possible explanation for a clipped image. Some applications, such as Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Illustrator, and CorelDRAW, use an internal 16–bit coordinate system which means that they cannot handle an image of more than 32,768 pixels.
Pen settings seem to have no effect Here are some possible explanations: ● You have changed the settings in the front panel by selecting the icon followed by Default printing options > HP-GL/2 settings > Define palette , but you have forgotten to select that palette in Default printing options > HP-GL/2 settings > Select palette .
20 The problem is... (ink system topics) ● I cannot insert an ink cartridge ● The printer will not accept a large black ink cartridge ● I cannot remove an ink cartridge ● I cannot insert a pri.
I cannot insert an ink cartridge 1. Check that you have the correct type of cartridge (model number). 2. Check that the colored label on the cartridge is the same color as the label on the slot. 3. Check that the cartridge is correctly oriented, with the colored label at the top.
3. Reinsert the printhead into the carriage and check the front panel message. 4. If the problem remains, try a new printhead. An ink cartridge status message These are the possible ink cartridge stat.
the front panel shows the printheads with no printhead blinking, you do not need to touch the printheads. Just close the window again, and the printer will proceed to printhead cleaner replacement. 278 Chapter 20 The problem is... (ink system topics) ENWW The problem is.
21 The problem is... (stacker topics) [4500] NOTE This chapter applies to the HP Designjet 4500 Printer series only. ● Paper scrolling ● The trailing edge of the paper curling up ● The paper is not completely ejected ENWW 279 The problem is.
Paper scrolling When printing in Fast mode with highly curled paper, the paper may scroll when ejected to the stacker tray. To avoid this problem, you are recommended to switch to Normal mode or use a paper roll with a 3 inch core. The trailing edge of the paper curling up Use the Optimize for images setting: see Change the print quality.
22 The problem is... (scanner topics) [4500] NOTE This chapter applies to the HP Designjet 4500 Printer series only. If you notice problems with the scanner other than those described below, consult the scanner's online guide for further advice.
The diagnostics light is flashing The most likely explanation is that the scanning area needs cleaning. Perform the routine maintenance procedures explained in your online guide, which include cleaning. Restart the scanner when you have finished the maintenance procedures.
The scanner displays a warning message The scanner may recommend performing maintenance in some circumstances: ● Scanner Maintenance has not been run for 30 days. ● Lamp quality fails. The filter should be replaced at the same time. ● Glass plate quality fails.
7. The language selection screen should appear. Select the language you want to use for the Designjet Scan application. The touch screen will automatically restart in the selected language. 8. Allow time for the operating system to be reloaded. The process has finished when the touch screen shows the Copy tab of the Designjet Scan application.
23 The problem is... (other topics) ● The printer's start-up process does not complete ● A front panel message ● A “printhead monitoring” message ● A “printheads are limiting perfor.
The printer's start-up process does not complete If the printer's start-up process stops when the front panel is displaying the number 17, this indicates that there is a problem with the file system on the printer's hard disk, so the printer is checking the whole file system and making any necessary corrections.
Code Short message Suggested action 27:03 Restart the printer. If problem persists, call HP support. An error has been detected during printhead detection. Reseat all the printheads; see Remove a printhead and Insert a printhead and Restart. If the problem persists, please contact your customer service representative.
Code Short message Suggested action 84.1:03 Restart the printer. If the problem persists, call HP support. Check that the cable between the printer and roll module 2 is well connected. 84.2:01 Possible paper jam A paper jam has been detected in drawer 2.
Your print job may be described as “on hold for paper” for one or more of the following reasons: ● You have requested a specific paper type for the job which is not currently loaded. ● You have requested a specific paper roll for the job (1 or 2) which is not currently loaded.
● The print file may lack a proper file terminator and the printer is therefore waiting for the specified I/O timeout period before assuming it is complete. If you are using Mac OS with a FireWire or USB connection, select the icon, then Default printing options > PS options > Select encoding > ASCII .
Communication failures between computer and printer Some symptoms are: ● The front-panel display does not show the “Receiving” message when you have sent an image to the printer. ● Your computer displays an error message when you are trying to print.
Alternatively, for more precise control, click the Advanced button and add the printer's IP address to the list of Exceptions for which the proxy server is not used. ● Try switching off the printer (with the Power key on the front panel) and then switching it on again.
3. There are small holes in the platen beside some of the rollers. Using the bottle of oil supplied with the Maintenance Kit, insert the pointed end of the bottle into each hole in turn, and put three drops of oil into each hole. 4. Repeat the process until all of the holes in the platen have had three drops of oil placed in them.
6. If there is oil on the platen, wipe it away with the cloth supplied with the kit. 7. Lower the window. 294 Chapter 23 The problem is... (other topics) ENWW The problem is.

Ink cartridges The printer's four ink cartridges provide yellow, magenta, black, and cyan ink to the printheads. The color cartridges supplied with the printer have a capacity of 225 cm³, and the black cartridge has a capacity of 400 cm³.
You are recommended to replace the empty cartridge with a new HP cartridge: see Remove an ink cartridge and Insert an ink cartridge. Although it is possible to use refilled or non-HP ink cartridges, either choice has several serious disadvantages: ● There is some risk of damaging the printer.
To maintain optimum print quality, the printheads are automatically tested at regular intervals, and automatically serviced if necessary. This takes a little time and will occasionally delay printing. When a printhead eventually needs to be replaced, the front panel will tell you so.

The uses of a multiroll printer A multiroll printer can be useful in several different ways: ● You can switch between different paper types quickly and without touching the printer. ● You can switch between different paper widths quickly and without touching the printer.
Roll switching policy If the printer has two rolls of paper and it receives a job that could be printed on either roll, it will normally print on the currently loaded roll because there is no reason to change. However, if the current roll is much wider than the job requires, to print on the current roll will mean some waste of paper.
