    hi guys me again, i have just printed a large shield in 2 tiles, full width at one point but at the point of the shield, the print head still travels entire width of the vinyl. is there any way to have it not do this, as it would cut down time on these kinda jobs ??

    It’s called full width scan and best left as is
    With it on each pass interval is the same time so the ink is layed equal and dries equally
    If turned off then the scan width and time intervals alters and if to short will lead the over inking in some parts
