A Summary of common printing problems
This is a table of common problems and the parameters that can be changed in order to solve the problem.
Some possible side-effects are also shown. For a more detailed treatment of any particular problem, please
see the relevant chapter in this guide.
Problem Parameter Change Possible side-effects
Durability problems, ink smudges,
or oily finish Curing temperature Increase Substrate jam, substrate damage,
ink smears
Number of passes Increase Slower printing
Inter-path delay offset Increase Slower printing
Substrate jam, substrate damage,
ink smears Curing temperature Decrease Less durability (smudges), oily finish
Vacuum Increase Substrate skew, vertical banding if
increased too much
Top and/or bottom margins Increase Waste of substrate
Edge holders Use The minimum side margins increase
slightly, reducing the maximum
width of the printed image
Vertical banding in saturated area
fills Ink limits Decrease Reduced color gamut
Inter-path delay offset Increase Slower printing
Number of passes Increase Slower printing
Cutter (360 only) Disable Manual substrate advance may be
needed to avoid crashes with some
substrates
Group jobs together Yes Avoids white space between prints
Modify the print queue Avoid printing difficult jobs (using a lot of ink) at the
beginning of the queue
Horizontal banding in saturated
area fills Ink limits Decrease Reduced color gamut
Inter-path delay offset Increase Slower printing
Number of passes Increase Slower printing
Modify color separations and dark
color generation
Align printheads
Clean substrate-advance sensor
(360 only)
Clean printheads
