Pause after printing? Is there a setting?

If there's a setting, I can't find it.

Running SP-540v equipment with Versaworks.

Anyone know?

There should be an option some where in VersaWorks that lets you set a dry time, let me poke around a bit and see if I can find it...

edit: It's under Job Settings > Printer Controls > Other Controls, You have to select "Use Custom Settings". Pretty sure that'll do what you want. Depending on the material though you may want to turn the heater down since it's gonna be sittin on there for a bit, I've never used that feature myself so I'm not sure if the heater stays on to assist in drying, but I would assume it does.

Thanks, I'm running the job currently with those job settings changes. I'll know in a minute if the machine takes the instructions to let a 5 minute time lapse before going into cut mode.

Nope, didn't do it. Went right into the cut cycle destroying the print. Which doesn't have time to dry before the pinch rollers track thru the fresh ink.

Damn.

on our vp-540 we dont use the middle pinch roller ever ... only the outer 2 and it works fine cutting right after print because the rollers never come into contact with the ink

Whoops! My mistake. I must have went in and changed a setting because it worked like a charm the second try.

Thanks Mike. You helped me!
