Introduction
Solve media touches or print quality artefacts caused by waves in the media. When media is flexible and or of a relatively narrow media width (<1000mm) the vacuum suction can be too low and the media will start to move over the platen in a wave motion. 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.
-
Use a different media type.
