Print & Image Quality Issues (Cont’d)
Quality Issues - Ink
Missing A Color
During a print you may notice that the color looks really wrong and in some areas totally
missing from the print. Generally this is due to the drop out of a color in the inks Cyan,
Magenta, Yellow and Black. This is why starting with a nozzle check before printing should
always be done to confirm all colors are ready to go. 2 cleans should be done first followed
by a Nozzle check to bring the color back, a prime of the ink line may be needed if the 2 cleans
do not work. This is also always a good example of an Ink Clip that has not been unclipped
when starting up the printer. However an error like this should have been notice and fixed
during the first initial Nozzle Check before printing.
Banding
Banding is visible lines showing in the print going
through areas of color. This is caused by nozzles
missing in a color. The nozzles that are not printing
are leaving behind an empty space, creating a line.
The same process for fixing Missing Color is done
for banding. Print a Nozzle Check first to confirm
nozzle performance. In most cases banding can be
fixed by just doing 2 Head Cleans. Always print a
Nozzle Check after cleaning to confirm the problem
has been fixed. A Prime may be needed if this does
not fix the issue.
Quality Issues - Digital
Good print quality also relies on the images being
printed. A low resolution image will not print well and
will become worse when made larger. It is very
important that high quality artwork is used. Blurry and
pixelated images usually do not relate to printer perfo-
rmance, they are a sign of low resolution and quality
in the image being printed. It will be an important step
for anyone new to printing to study and learn about
graphics and working with a good graphic editing
program like PhotoShop.
