Tracking marks

[swimwivsquid]

OK seemed to have sorted it. Tried slowing the printer down by knocking off high speed printing on the settings that I had for the profile that I am using. Didn't make much difference,still had the marks. However when switching over from photo setting to best photo setting it slowed the printer down further and this time no tracking marks. It lays more ink down perversley but didn't get the tracking wheel marks. Pressed the images using the new settings and they seem fine on most things a little warm on some but I can get around that. Strange thing is that this problem seems to have suddenly materialised recently. Never used to get it before.Gremlins I reckon. Thanks for all your feedback and help guys.

What paper are you using jennywren?

Hi Jenny,
I went into the advanced section of the printer dialogue box and used the paper settings that I already had set up except I changed the "Paper and quality options" from "photo" to "best photo" and unticked the high speed box. This seemed to work. It lays down a bit more ink but depending on the subject is not really noticable.It really slowed the printer down. Just unticking the highspeed box on "photo quality" didn't make any difference. Still got the marks
My original settings for the rotech profile were :Epson Matt paper-high speed-photo quality. This is what the profile was originally created with. However since the tracking marks I have modified it to .....Epson Matt-best photo-edge smoothing(ticked) This has got id of them
Hope this helps.
Regards Richard

I had it yesterday, on one sheet of paper out of a run of 10 sheets, and I'm using Tru-pix paper.

Having said that, the printer had been off for a couple of days, and not sure if it happened because the printer was doing it's "clean up act" so to speak.

Hopefully it won't happen again today.

If you're using the HR version of Texprint then the lines are more likely to be present as the ink doesn't dry quickly. The TruPix paper is instant dry - if you pm your address to me I'll drop a few sheets in the post tomorrow for you to try.
