Introduction
Solve media touches or print quality artefacts caused by the curling of media. When you are using a stiff media at the leading edge of the roll, the media can get a leading edge curl. When you are using a multi-layer based media with high ink coverage at the side edge or a media stored in high humidity, the media can get a side-edge curl. Follow the procedure below. You can stop at any time in the procedure when the problem is solved.
Procedure
-
Increase the [Vacuum power] settings in the RIP. Increase with steps of 10%. For each step you increase and have changed the setting: reload the media before you continue printing. Observe the media movement on the platen first, before you increase the vacuum power again.
Change the media settings.
-
Perform media calibration.
Calibrate the media.
-
Set the [Print gap] setting in the RIP to [High] .
Change the media settings.
-
Use a different media type.
