Digital BW, The Print

I agree that the roller marks are a pain when using glossy papers.

 

I am using Cone Warm Neutral inks, and often print ( the 2880 ) with Canson Platine.  Support at Jon's site suggests using a "lead sheet" of the same printing paper attached to the "print sheet" by painter's tape.  There is a thread that explains the process.  I have taken to using the rear manual sheet feeder.  When using such the roller marks never occur.  I must be very lucky, for thus far I have not noted any instances of a pizza wheel.  In addition, using Jon's gloss optimizer I have not had any examples of gelling, etc. that some have reported with other ink systems and alternate gloss optimizers.  Again, I must be very fortunate.

Hi  

Paul Thanks for the insight.

 

On R2000 and R3000. suppose I use the Front loading feeding method would there still be a problem of "Pizza Wheel"?

 

 

I just messed with Glop in 1400. Its too unpredictable! The roller Marks and the pizza wheel. I reduced the Glop amount and the pizza wheel is more manageable.but the roller marks.... 

 

Lets see what I can do.  

Also can the Mis Carbon glossy ink go into the 1400 since it is 1.5 pico vs 3.5pico design?
