Attached is the same file only differnce is the one without banding has pantone colors. The darker one is roland colors from the swatches. Why would the roland colors show banding and not the other?

Attached is a picture of my first real issue that I am unable to address myself. I haven't come across any pictures that look similar to the white large horizontal banding type issue that I am having. I am running flexi 12 and attached are screenshots of my settings. I cleaned the encoder and...

I'm selling a mimaki cjv30-130 54" printer/plotter. It was purchased new December of 2014 from ADVANTAGE. Im an in house graphics guy for a large crane company. It was used 2-3 times a week. All the maintenance has always been performed as recommended and has a perfect test print. It's...

If it's not one thing it's another. I've been playing with settings and profiles to dial in my colors. I finally got all that pretty close, and ran a long print on reflective (7' long). At the last 8-12" of the print the black began dropping out and you can see banding. It seems like I read...

Hi I seem to be getting alot of banding in my prints. I've done manual cleanings, cleaned encoder strip, adjusted my bi-directionals, multiple powerful cleanings. Also the tubes were changed around 3 months ago. My machines are pretty old but the print heads should have been changed about a...

Hi again all, I have a strange one for you. XC-540. After a good run of say 20m, i started noticing strange lines appearing in the middle of the prints. It is not to the left or the right, just in the middle. I adjusted the head height to low and they dissapear. When I put the head height to...

Hi Folks, I have had this fault for quite a while now. It was only really noticeable on particular shades of blue but now it is over the fill range of colours and greys. It's as if the printhead isnt putting out enough of ink. It tends to happen on equal intervals such as 6.5cm apart. When it...

I've been having issues with banding on my Scitex FB700. Being under warrantee, HP continued to send a tech out to replace parts to troubleshoot the problem over the last few weeks. He's now been here several times and has replaced every moving part in the machine (motors, wheels, bearings...

Here is a picture of the issue I am having. Trying to print a solid color blue for vehicle wrap. Printing with a mutoh 1624 on Avery 1005 material. Black is printing great but getting an 'airbrushed effect' with solids as if there is not enough ink. It's a holiday and i'm stuck cuz mutoh is...

Hi, I'm having a problem that I haven't seen before and have no idea what it could be, any help would be greatly appreciated. The problem is when printing solid black or any dark colour involving a lot of black the ink looks like it has been applied with a paint brush, it's definitely not...

I'm having microweave banding problems on my GS6000. I checked all the usual suspects (nozzle check, feed adjust, line feed pattern, microweave settings, etc) and those haven't resolved the issue. The Epson tech has paid us numerous visits and spent around 25+ hours working on it and has...

So what causes this banding? I'm using the Arlon 3mil 720x720 G2 profile in Flexi Production Manager. I switched to the Arlon 720x720 G4 profile and it went away but the dots are not as fine. Is it the Arlon material or the profile? I'm confused on this. I've had different material give banding...

I'm fairly new to the forum and the signage world (my background is mostly identity design). Attached is a photo that shows to different print files. both cmyk. The print on the left is a solid vector color. The print on the right is taken from an image. Both came from Illustrator files. Any...

Hi everyone, I am a newbee here. I am having issues with my Mimaki CJV30-130 banding. I feel like I have tried everything but I doubt that, I come from a Roland background and when moving companies I didn't get much training on the Mimaki before the previous person left. I go on Maternity leave...

Hey Guys, We have an Arizona 480GT with IJC258 ink set. While printing using the roll function, we are having some major issues with banding. Seems to be way better and not very noticeable when printing the same image on the flatbed. Head tests are all perfect before and after I stop the print...
