L26500 is officially a 61 inch printer. Edge curl on solvent ink printers is typically caused by the solvent ink attacking and 'thinning' the media. Latex ink does not thin the media.

This is being offered by the USA master importer of the SepiaX ink. The machine itself is an Epson Stylus Pro 9890: http://www.epson.com/cgi-bin/Store/jsp/Pro/SeriesStylusPro78909890/Overview.do?BV_UseBVCookie=yes What I am curious about on this machine is the fact that it does not have...

Nylon can be, (and has traditionally been) screen printed. It can be digitally printed, provided you have the proper type of ink. In the case of Nylon, that is called Acid ink. After printing, the Nylon is steamed, and then washed. There are not a lot of wholesale providers that can digitally...

Hard to say with any degree of certainty. One possibility is that you created an ICC v4 profile, and Flexi 8 probably would not accept that version of ICC/ ICM profile, as v4 came along after Flexi 8. v4 is still being adapted by some applications. For example, Versaworks cannot accept v4...

The EFI ES-1000 is a rebranded X-Rite/ Gretag Macbeth i1-Professional. Be sure that the spectro you acquire is supported by your RIP software. The i1Pro is available with or without an onboard UV filter (UV Cut) for the same price point.

Versaworks requires v2, and does not support ICC v4 at this point, unless that has recently changed.

Most popular RIPs have supported that device for years, including SAi and Onyx. I do not believe that Wasatch does however.

Yes, Onyx allows re-linearization, through the Media Manager application. You'll need a supported spectrophotometer to do so.

When printing on textiles with solvent ink, you need to be sure that the textile is intended for your chemistry of ink. This generally means that the fabric is coated specifically for compatability with solvent ink. Uncoated media will perform exactly as you are describing, with bleed and...

The best (most accurate) answer is that every device on the workflow is unique, and will (re)produce color differently than every other device. This includes devices of the same make and model. With that said, I would expect that if the printers are linearized individually, they should be...

As I mentioned in a previous post, you need the Measure Tool application from ProfileMaker 5.x to provide LCh values (there are others, but they cost money).

i1Share cannot provide LCh measurement values, but you can run it on your Win7-64 installation. Simply copy the eyeone.dll file from your i1Match installation folder and copy it into your i1Share folder (overwrite the one that is alreayy there (from 2005), and replace it with the newer one...

Regarding the first point, no Versaworks does not provide LCh values for spot reads. As you mentioned that you are using i1Match, and not ProfileMaker, your current software lacks the ability to generate LCh information. The good news is that you should not need to puchase any additional...

This points strongly toward inconsistent temps across the width of the print area (printer issue). A media profile cannot be responsible for this.

Agree on the IJ35. Works well with latex. Have you tried the new 3M IJ10 / 11C? In my testing, this material curls a tremendous amount after curing the ink (think potato chip), far more than any other media that I've tested on the latex printers. I am assuming that the backing paper is the...

What RIP are you driving the printer from? Oily looking blacks can result from several root causes. These can include temp/ airflow settings, pass counts too low, and ink restrictions/ total ink limits too high for the media to handle. Some of the canned profiles that some RIPs ship with are...

Negative Afterimage. Wacky

+ 1 Morgan is the man.

Yes. Job Settings > Color Adjustments > Level Adjustments

+ 1. You never, ever want to adjust the Primary Channel (CMYK) ink limits in an existing profile to correct for problems like neutral grays etc. Those values serve as the foundation for everything else, including the linearization and ICC Profile. Your best bet is to adjust the tone curves...
