Never printed photo slates before today.
First one off the press was very good, but the second one camie out very mottled in the centre ( same settings/different image than the first). The printing around the edge was clear and sharp.
The problem area was the darkest part of the design (so most ink coverage). All I can think is maybe not letting the transfer dry long enough or to much ink. I used 'best photo' setting on the Epson 1500. Maybe drop the print quality?
Any help would be gratefully received.

What inkset are you using in the 1500? What time and temp are you pressing at?

Are you using a pad inbetween the slate and the platen?

Loads of info already on here about slates, quick search should help
