    Hi guys,
    I have to print 22m of draft paper on my verscamm and ive never printed it before, the majority of it is black and white and the rest is colour, does anyone have any suggestions for a profile that might work??

    or anyone printed it before??

    cheers

    i do full size boat drawings for the mould makers.
    i use 360×450 as fast as possible 2 pass even draft mode may be ok.
    if the drawings are for making things or measuring from better make sure you calibrate the feed.
    print a 1000 box and measure it

    i have noticed a new trend of architects sending out pdf files instead of drawings

    hi chris,
    i have two jobs actually, one sent dwg cad file and the other one was pdf’s.

    Which i thought was very easy as they pop straight into versaworks.

    thanks

    if using 90 gsm paper the calibration could be 4 mm or so out and the paper cant take much ink so hope there are not any big fills.

    some times they want it printed to clear which i use a clear that is used for screenprint positives. expensive but thats what they want.
