sp300v color problem

my colors are printing with white spots not solid colors not even the blacks sometimes. you can even see some banding in the red which bands on all colors. even my blacks are spotty and bandish.

but if you look at the text that says color chart type 1 and below it is all perfectly color black. no banding and no spots, same thing with the black line boarder and crop mark.

i am using versaworks

anyone have any ideas on what to do thanks

Try the following...

Set media type to GVWG
Set Quality to Standard

At the bottom of the same Quality Settings Screen, set the Color Management Preset to: MAX Impact or try MAX Density

Do you have all colors in the Color Adjustment settings to +5 ?

my question is if i change the media type to the exact vinyl i am using will it go back to printing messed up? i think the color management might have been whats screwed up!

If you print to the same material all of the time, go to EDIT>Queue Settings A or B (whichever you use) and set all of the settings I recommended here. Then save.

These settings will then be set as the DEFAULT for every job you put into that Queue, but can be changed per job.
