Choose Minimal for fastest throughput, Maximal for greatest precision and skew detection when printing edge-to-edge.

●Measure media (roll-fed) — for roll-fed media, you can choose various levels of precision for finding the left (user end), and right (service end) edges of the media.

◦When loading — locates the left and right edges only when loading a roll of media.

◦Before each copy — locates the left and right edges of the media before each print. This enables the printer to compensate for any “drifting” of the media, and print the image at the correct location.

●Use Ionizer Bar — sets whether to use the ionizer bar to reduce the electrostatic charge on synthetic medias (the default setting is on or enabled). You may want to disable the ionizer in humid environments where electrostatic charge is not present on the media, or to reduce the wear on the ionizer's discharge electrodes. The ionizer bar is powered on only during media load, printing, and when the lamps are on.

●Use Thickness Sensor — sets whether to use the automatic media thickness sensor, or to prompt you to manually enter the thickness.

●Head Height off Media — automatically raises the rail to set the printhead clearance from the media, at the height you specify. A lower height reduces overspray, but increases the chances for a head strike on the media. Bidi calibration is automatically adjusted for changes in this value.

●Print White Space — provides the option of causing the printer to advance the media past unprinted space in the document file without the usual “printing” carriage motion. The printer will finish curing any printed areas before skipping this space. This option increases the printer's effective speed (throughput).

●Top Gutters — allows you to turn On or Off the gutter data at the top edge of the print, which shows the job name, ink, media, date and time printed, print mode, lamps setting, printer, embedded software version, plus write-in blanks for other data.

●Quality Check — when enabled, prevents printing from occurring if more than a certain number of missing or misfiring jets are not replaced by working jets. You can specify whether the printer asks you whether to stop printing with a Warning message, or if printing stops automatically without a Warning.

●Increase UV Lamp Power — when the printer is no longer fully curing the ink on prints, use this option to incrementally increase the lamp power. If the power needs to be increased again, create a custom media and set the UV Lamp Power to Medium or High, or replace the bulbs (the bulbs should be replaced in pairs). In this case, the printer will warn you that the print may not fully cure until the bulbs are replaced. (Printing Page > Options > Increase UV Lamp Power)

Scitex FB700 Industrial specifications

The HP Scitex FB700 is an industrial flatbed printer designed to meet the rigorous demands of high-quality large-format printing. Launched by HP, this printer offers businesses incredible versatility, speed, and precision, making it an essential tool for print service providers looking to enhance their productivity and expand their service offerings.

One of the standout features of the HP Scitex FB700 is its print quality. Equipped with HP's proprietary UV inks, the printer delivers vibrant colors, sharp images, and excellent durability. These inks are designed for a wide range of substrates, making it possible to print on materials such as rigid boards, flexible media, and even specialty applications like textiles. The FB700 supports a maximum print resolution of 1200 dpi, ensuring that every detail is faithfully rendered.

A key technology in the FB700 is its UV curing capability. This technology allows the printer to cure the inks almost instantly as they are applied, which not only speeds up the printing process but also enables printing on heat-sensitive materials. The ability to quickly switch between different substrates, from foam board to acrylic, offers unparalleled flexibility for businesses looking to meet diverse client needs.

Moreover, the HP Scitex FB700 features a user-friendly interface, enhanced by HP’s smart technology. This includes automated calibration and quality control systems that help maintain consistent print quality while reducing the likelihood of errors. The printer is also designed with ease of maintenance in mind, allowing operators to focus on production rather than troubleshooting.

In terms of productivity, the FB700 excels with a high throughput rate. Capable of producing prints up to 95 m² per hour, this printer is suited for high-volume jobs, enabling businesses to take on larger projects without sacrificing quality. Its robust design ensures reliability and efficiency, making it ideal for busy print environments.

Lastly, sustainability is an important consideration within the printing industry, and the HP Scitex FB700 addresses this concern by utilizing low-VOC inks and energy-efficient components. This commitment to eco-friendliness allows companies to meet their sustainability goals while maintaining a competitive edge in the market.

In summary, the HP Scitex FB700 Industrial printer is a powerful tool that combines high performance, versatility, and ease of use. With its advanced printing technologies, exceptional print quality, and commitment to sustainability, it is well-equipped to handle the diverse demands of modern printing applications.
