Your Graphtec dealer (I know Tubelite is in Florida) should be able to order those for you - Graphtec part number is OPH-A22. Depending on how wide your plotter is, you can add one or two extra pinch wheels which will definitely help with slipping. We always load out the max number of pinch...
I'm bouncing back and forth, using the resulting curves to confirm my ink restrictions. Final step after getting them dialed in using the curves as a reference is to re-print and re-scan one last time. This will create the linearization table that gets used with the profile.
I think in the...
I don't see them anywhere. please post them and I'll take a look.
The ideal curve is a straight line from the lower left to the upper right corners (or to the point that you limited the ink on the right side). That very seldom happens so we have to linearize the colors and the rip does the...
Using eyesight gets me pretty close. I can verify it by looking at the curves after I've scanned the second set of prints. If it hooks or goes flat, I'll usually limit it some more. If it is still going up, I'll set the limit higher and rescan in either case.
I know there's more to i1...
The video link is great. I do it the same way. You want to set your ink channel limits, linearization and multi color limits in Versaworks, then print your profile swatches in Versaworks using the media settings you just created and linearization only for the color management preset. Create the...
I'm looking at a 365, but I think this part is the same... Do you see the spring that attaches to the right side of the lever? It's got 3 positions - all the way up to release, then it drops half way down when you pull out the spindle, then it drops all the way down when you put the spindle...
I missed that - and looked several times. Thanks. If there is physical damage, the color bleeding over can be internal. The innards of these things are quite fragile and you can damage the septum between the two channels.
I thinks so. Let us know how it goes.
I see you have issues with cyan in the same area. When I see problems lined up like that, I suspect a head crash, especially when you state that the printer malfunctioned with the heads uncapped. Have you looked at the bottom of the print head? Are there any scratch marks? It would also help...
Also, it's not really unusual for the solenoid that activates the fill valve to stick. I forget how we used to do it, but you can activate the solenoid through one of the service menus I believe. Hopefully someone can remember how that's done and share the trick.
Bubs, it looks like you've had about 3 months of fighting this thing. How much has that cost you. I'd get with your engineer and go with what he recommends. Clear up your problems and be able to print with confidence and less waste.
