Double Strike on HP 315 Latex...

I have an HP 315 Latex and cannot figure out how to do double strike printing. I read elsewhere that it is done through Flexi under 'Printer Options' and is called 'Print Count' and 'Time Interval' but it is not there. I am using Flexi 19. I am trying to print on clear self-adhesive vinyl for backlit.

Thanks,

I need to adhere it to the Polycarb lens of a light cabinet. The backlit film I have used in the past does not have adhesive and is only made for light boxes with clamps at the edges. So that is why I am using a clear self adhesive vinyl.

I actually do not need Flexi as I load the Illustrator .AI file directly into production manager and then modify the print profile/options from Production manager. I can increase saturation I just read somewhere on this forum before that it is not the same thing to increase saturation as it is do do a double strike print. As I understand it double strike printing is the the best option for backlit signage without going to through the complexity of using a reverse image/double layer print solution.

I actually talked to HP support and they said that the Latex does not support double strike and just to use the saturation instead. I ran 20 pass with 260% saturation on clear vinyl and it looks pretty good.

The signs I am making are for a nighttime event so they are both temporary and are never seen during day, so the project does not justify using backlit film / double layer. It came out good.
