How do I print backlits on HP45500

[dasigndr]

anyone have any idea how to print a backlit on a clear poycarbonate on the HP45500 UV flatbed? There is a setting for backlit roll material (which works absolutely awesome, beautiful vibrant prints), howeveer ther is no setting for printing a backlit on a rigid sheet. I tried creating my own but it does not give me the option of telling it that it is a BACKLIT I am printing, therefore telling the printer to apply more inks.
Any help please???

Do a return to origin, and overprint it?

You do not need to double post the admins do not like double posts asking the same thing!

return to origin

OK., but who is to say the registration will be exact.
I will try.
Thanks, dennis

sorry

OK, sorry. I was not aware. I only wanted to make sure it was seen by as many people as possible to get the most help possible.
Thanks, dennis

I would run the rigid sheet while using the backlit profile you already like, run it at 1200x600 resolution, and in HQ mode in order to get the highest saturation. I assume since you are running on clear material that you are doing a reverse print, and plan to put a white backer of some sort < cast white vinyl, latex paint applied by a roller, sheet of white backlit film ) behind the backlit sign to give it the most pop.

Good luck.
