HP Latex R-Series Edge Holders Kit (Y6V16A)

HP Latex R-Series Edge Holders Kit Y6V16A is a fully engineered substrate control solution designed specifically for HP Latex R-Series flatbed printers. This kit secures rigid and semi-rigid substrates during printing, preventing edge lift that can cause carriage interference, printhead damage, or substrate jams.

The edge holders keep the substrate in place throughout the print zone, protecting both the media and critical printer components during operation. The kit supports different substrate thicknesses by offering interchangeable print-zone modules labeled for materials ≤ 0.5 mm (0.02 in) and > 0.5 mm (0.02 in), allowing operators to configure the system based on the media being printed.

The edge holders integrate directly with the printer’s alignment bar and include alignment-bar extenders, shims, straps, and low-friction protective film to ensure stable positioning from input through output. Once assembled, the holders remain reusable and can be stored in the provided case when not in use.
