Mimaki plotter settings

[DoubleDown]

Does anyone have any recommendations for settings (pressure, speed, etc) on materials using the CG-FX Mimaki plotters?

Thanks,

Chris

I set the force to 30 for unlaminated 3651 prints, but 110 for laminated prints. I think my laminate is 3 mil, but I'm not sure.

Where because I have read through the manual and it tells what ranges and types but does not give specifics on recommendations for settings..

No worries...didn't think you were being an arsehole at all.

And I saw those settings in the book but I thought those were just examples of how to set different settings...not the actual starting points in general? I appreciate the help and will try it out.

Thanks,

Chris
