The rip will convert to the CMYK ICC of the print mode, and then sends this data to the Epson Half Tone Module driver. This will convert 8 bit CMYK to 9 color and calculate dot sizes. The rip has no influence on this.

A little bit outdated, but this should help you use many profiles that are available for the 80600: http://flexihelp.saicloud.com/en/Content/1_Installation/Other%20Installation%20Procedures/Setting%20up%20Flexi%20to%20print%20with%20the%20Epson%20SC-S%20X0600%20series.htm?Highlight=dashboard

From my experience, BS4 prints more grainy than SS21.

If the prints are much less grainy when you print uni-directional, then perform a ‘drop-Pos’ alignment. It is in the Setup section.

This is how I create profiles for the 80600: 1. Load the media in the printer, and perform 'auto adjust' check nozzles etc 2. Generate and print the ink limit chart using Epsons IDF Chart Generator, independent of Onyx. Here you can select media type, resolution, number of passes. If you don't...

In order to simulate/troubleshoot spot colors with any rip/printer combination, some things are important: 1. The spot colors should be defined as ‘spot’ and not as ‘process’ colors. This can be checked in your PDF or rip. 2. Recognition of spot colors by the rip is often case sensitive. Also...

The CMYK values calculated by the rip then go to the Epson Precision halftoning driver, which converts them to all necessary ink channels. You can check ink consumption per color with the Epson LFP Accounting Tool.

This is because spot colors in your PDF are looked up in the spot colour library of the rip. This library contains the name of a spot colour and its respective L*a*b* value. They are rendered absolute colorimetric from L*a*b* to output CMYK ICC (the printer profile). Source CMYK in your file get...

The problem is caused by the lack of black ink usage in the lighter parts of the output ICC profile. If you can, recalculate the ICC with a black start closer to 0, and more aggressive GCR. Downside: because of there isn't a light black ink, some grain might appear.

I guess the overcoat function is separate from the utilization of the ink optimizer fluid? Is it a setting you can control per media in the rip?

Hi, I will be able to post some pictures from R5000 prints in about one or two weeks when I’m back in our demo room. Prints are less grainy than HP L570, but more than SC-S80600. I haven’t seen small prints from a new HP latex.

The area around the cappings can be cleaned with the sticks. If you experience banding, I recommend printing at 8pass HQ. If it’s not over, then do a couple of heavy cleanings.

Hi, the 80600 is our best selling print-only roll-to-roll machine. More importantly, our customers experience very little technical issues, compared to another Japanese brand (not Roland). Manual maintenance needed only every 3 weeks. The profiles you can download from Epsons Edge Dashboard are...

The 80600 is what the 70600 should have been. It is a very reliable printer. I demo and install these units, and customer satisfaction is very high. Post installation, I get questions about the rip, or how to switch from 9C to 9C+white or metallic, but not regarding print quality or other...

Thanks. This is one from the first batch of units shipped to dealers around Europe, so I guess others will be receiving their units in the coming days. Our customers, the wide format printshops, will typically want to see test prints, benchmarks before they buy.

Finally our demo unit has arrived. Nice looking machine. It took 6 people to lift the printer onto the stand. Ink charging will be done next week.

I meant 'rendering intent' but it must have been falsely autocorrected. The rendering intent tells Rasterlink how to convert from the source to destination ICC profile. You can find it in the 'Q' tab in Rasterlink. The source ICC profile defines the colors of the document, in case they're not...

Hi, the UCJV has a rather small gamut at the lowest resolution. Also, the standard Mimaki profiles are not that good. Some more questions, for you, and I’ll see if I have some profiles to give you. - what is the inkset for this UCJV? LUS170 CMYK or CMYK Lc Lm with white (and clear ink)? - At...

Hi, tell the service engineer to bring a main board too. A similar issue happened with one of our customers on an 80600L a few months ago. Got us puzzled too, as well as Epson 2nd level support. On Epson’s Tech Exchange service site, there is a diagnostics .prn file for the 80600. It is supposed...

Supposedly at dealers end of October, begin November.
