Photos attached. Originally we thought the issue was static or head/nozzle related. We are having this same problem on all 3 of our hybrid HP UV presses (500/550/700). The only consistent variable would be the ink we are using. Would appreciate any advice on how to fix or narrow down the possible issues. Thanks in advance.

I must first admit that I do not have any experience with this machine. I did have the misfortune of having a HP Scitex lx850, the latex printer. We would see this issue on that machine from time to time. The solution was to reseat the print heads. I am not sure if the machine you have has user replaceable heads, but if it does you may want to give that a try.

Good luck SK.
