RE: [QuadtoneRIP] Re: Wasting paper on a roll

2007-12-04 by E Neilsen

Unfortunately I have CS1 at home where only my 7000 resides. I don't have
any 13" rolls either so I can't try that either unless I just tell it that I
have 13" when I really have 17". That may not really help.

 

What dpi is your file? 360? And is this only happening with one image or any
image sized to 7x8?  However it really sounds more like a setting issue with
the printer. When I have the cutter OFF, there will be extra paper that
stays unprinted at the beginning of the roll. If I want to print close to
the edge, I put it in with the cutter set to ON, and then before printing on
canvas for example, I turn it off before sending the data to be printed.
Works fine.

Eric, thanks a lot for your help! I have CS 1 so there is no question
of CS 3 issues. My paper size (13 x 9.5") is set to the full width of
the 13" roll but my print is smaller than the roll dimensions (print
dimension = approx. 7 x 8") or in other words I do not print
borderless and do not have the "borderless" box checked in the driver
settings. As my print is smaller than the paper size I cannot have the
"to fit" box checked in QTR
I have just emailed Roy all the data he requested from me and hope
that the problem is going to be resolved - even more so seeing that 
you do not experience any problems in this direction with the same
printer.
