  • Colour Fades – Not printing correctly ? help required please

    Posted by TimDouglas on 9 June 2009 at 07:19

    Hi folks – Can anyone explain to me what is happening with my printing fades , is it a result of changing over to 3rd party inks on SP540 ? Does everyone have this issue or is it the particular brand i bought? Inktec

    Previously – Fading from green to black went green to black , now I have green / purple/blue then black , Same for yellow to black or any colour to black fade, it turns purple / blue in the middle?

    If this is what happens with all third party inks then i will change back to Roland or is there 3rd party inks that this does not happen with?

    When i fade from say 2 blues its fine and all my spot colours are the same or close as , I can show photos but i don’t think you can put them up on this section,
    Many thanks

    Tim

    Unless it is the same job you are printing it may not be the inks. Try saving the file as a tiff and try again.

    I had issues just yesterday when printing an eps file with a fade. I eventually printed it as a tiff with no problems.

    Worth a try maybe?

    Cheers
