Why did you quote me and answer someone else ?? I merely was referring to the OP's having two pictures posted..... nothing at all to do with your suggestion of bright nauseating colors to eat by. Babies are attracted to bright colors and some animals perhaps. Maybe, you'd like to try again.
Well, he did make stools his first pic to look at. The condition of everything, kinda implies both. Either way, all of these suggestions so far should help.
Sorry, but I hadda glance over your OP.
You've done lotsa research, but what are you doing now ??
* How many orders for this kinda work do you get a day..... a week ??
* Do you have any steady/repeat customers at this point ??
* Where are you getting your finished printed, cut and laminated...
Well, I think someone here had already figured it out. Regardless of which profile I choose, they all print fine, true black and with one pass. It must've been the age of the roll. I guess multicolors didn't pick up on it, but just plain black.....brought all the imperfections out in an older...
What we've done over the years for this kinda situation is to print on the backside of clear acrylic in reverse and back up with a thin piece of almost anything, unless it's gonna be backlit, which I don't think your application calls for. This is by using a flatbed. The other printing...
Remove the static from that room. Humidifiers.... there's also some kinda anti-static chain or whatever you can string across the back of the printer. Not sure on that, as we never used one. Static doesn't seem to be much of a problem in our shop.
Yowsa........ I got about a third of the way with the print on my new roll, using a lower grade profile with one pass and got a head strike about 1/3 of the way in. Stupid me was looking at it, thinking it was looking good and when the head passed over where I was, I musta had the vinyl lifted...
I just started a new roll, I got in about 2 months. As for other colors, I've never noticed this before at all.... and I've used solid colors in many of the translucent prints.
The problem with having the head go back to the original point is, none of my high end translucent profiles allow...
I can print 1 pass, 2 pass or 3 pass, which if I remember correctly means it just puts more ink down all at the same time. It does not return to origin and start over. Not using the flatbed, because its a little too fine a detail for this job. I have a tech coming in next month to go over it...
That's why I wiped it. I'm on the 4th print. I'm using cal translucent 720 x 1440 2 and 3 pass. This little 20" x 30" piece takes like 45 minutes.
Now, here's a picture a bit further out. You can't feel a thing before or after printing. I'm almost 100" into the roll now, so it's literally...
I just saw the second picture. That is not anything to do with vinyl failure or application error. The way you could see you on a ladder taking pictures is the same way these places clean their trucks..... with a power washer pointing downward. That is a good example if p!ss-poor maintenance...
Two samples below are printed on oracal 3850 translucent stock and printed on 3 pass with a roland 540 cmyk. The one picture is the camera about 6" away and the other is about a foot away. LEDs are inside the 20" x 30" box.
Not shown is the first panel we printed at 2 pass and it had a slight...
