Gotcha. So basically just changing the thickness of the top of the drum between the pinch rollers. So the immediate calibration comes from this and then you have to run a test to change it if stuff doesn't match up? It seems like this is not the greatest method. Since some materials range in...
This would change with every rotation then because he drum becomes smaller and smaller with each turn. So wouldn't you need to calibrate every roll every time you put it on. Or if you cut off a 10 foot section while in between prints it would completely change the diameter of the roll making...
I'm more talking about the weight of the material after it comes off the roll? The weight/drag that the roll has traveling to the platen. How does the thickness matter? If by thicker you mean heavier?
That's what I am trying to say though you will find no such thing. Every printer depending on the amount of gunk on the rollers or how old the plastic on the platen is will be different even on the same media. There will be no chart where just by measuring thickness you can get a compensation...
When it moves that inch it is testing the drag on the material. If there is more drag then the media won't move as much and thus you will be farther to the right hand side of the calibration. If it has almost no drag then it might move to far and then your farther to the left of the...
Excellent question. The printheads fire at the same spot everytime if the media doesn't move enough you should be able to see that it missed the area it was firing or the test print would be short. There are some other people that might be able to explain this further.
Does feed rate go specifically on media thickness? I thought it was more the weight/ texture that created drag on the surfaces in the printer and you would have to account for that when setting up the feed rate. The HP does it auto so just a thought.
If its a "write port error" this might help for next time. It seems like flexi and the OS device manager need to have the same Bits per second setting and the same flow control settings. This gives you a run down of how to change. Seems like it might be the cutter saying hold on I need a...
