Solution: Reseated printhead; plotter threw a system error, resolved with a power cycle. Ran printhead cleaning cycle nine times to restore all colors. Low usage was causing printhead dry-out. Quoted and installed HP 729 DesignJet Printhead Replacement Kit (F9J81A); cleared false-jam errors during calibration
Problem: HP DesignJet T795 plotter in Sherwood, OR displayed 'Update Firmware' prompts and intermittently stalled at 20% on the boot progress bar following recurring power outages in the area.
Solution: Printer was operational on arrival. The customer had already updated the firmware and installed a line filter to protect against future power interruptions. No parts or adjustments required; call monitored and closed after no further issues were reported.
Problem: HP DesignJet T730 presented with repeated paper jams traced to a folded end-of-roll sheet caught in the paper pathway, resulting in degraded line spacing, poor color mixing, and a failing cutter assembly.

Replaced the printhead (F9J81A), ink cartridges, cutter assembly (CQ890-67033), encoder disk service kit (CQ890-67001), carriage line sensor (F9A30-67061), car
