HP Latex 700/800 Media Edge Guards Y0U21-67240 (10 Pack)
The HP Latex 700/800 Media Edge Guards Y0U21-67240 are designed to maintain flat, stable substrates during printing when lateral media edges begin to lift. Edge lifting can cause print defects, ink smearing, and head strikes, particularly on lightweight or temperature-sensitive media. These edge guards help eliminate those risks by securing the edges of the substrate throughout the print cycle.
Each edge guard overlaps the substrate by approximately 6 mm, providing controlled pressure that keeps the media flat without interfering with print quality when proper RIP margins are applied. Operators only need to use the guards when edge lift occurs, allowing flexibility across different media types.
This 10-pack includes five left and five right edge guards, providing complete coverage for a wide range of substrate widths on compatible HP Latex printers.
