Why does white vector print a feint background?
I’m doing some site board prints which have a lot of white background but the printer is laying down a very feint background on the white vinyl.
I’ve tried the rectangle set at RGB 255/255/255 and also set to "invisible" but both the same.
Printer is SP300 with Signlab 9.1 via VPM rip.
Any ideas as it shouldn’t print anything at all for white! -

I’d put money on it being RGB that is the cause. Try changing the file to CMYK, and
setting the background to white. -
had this after i created a profile and is a incorrectly set white point in the profile.
also had a customers bit map file do this which was there programme saving the jpeg with a bum profile. -
Thanks for the feedback. Tried setting the vector to a cmyk colour but no change.
I had altered the stock profile so tried the default setting – just the same.I have found a workaround by rendering the background to a monochrome bitmap. Absolutely perfect but not really the answer.
Perhaps Signlab does not produce a pure white "colourless" swatch regardless of what it says. -
With Versaworks if you use the Max Impact rendering it will do what you are saying. Don’t know how Signlab works but could be a rendering setting
