Re: [Digital BW] problems printing on transparency film on my Epson R2400

2008-01-23 by Ender100@aol.com

David,

1.   What printer settings are you using?
2.   What film are you printing on?
3.   Are you using photo black and original Epson inks?
4.   Have you run a test to confirm that all the jets are firing?
5.   Have you run the auto-allignment for the head on the transparency film?
6.   Are you printing at the highest resolution with hi-speed or 
bi-directional turned off?

Sorry for all the questions.

Best Wishes,
Mark Nelson
