Need Help printing white "highlight"

[daphany]

This logo is supposed to be teal. Something is definitely off! My roland xc-540 is doing a lot of strange things but this is the newest. Any suggestions?

It looks like a head alignment issue. I'm not sure how big that print is but it seems to be off by quite a bit. It could be a simple as adjusting the horizontal alignment of the cyan head but without being there, it's hard to say what else might be off. When realigning the heads, it's always best to do all of the alignments in the proper order rather than just trying to fix the one adjustment. If you have never done them before, find someone who can give you a service manual. I am not allowed to send you one.

Thanks for your reply! I did head alignments.. calibration ect. It seems to be off on one side anywhere black meets any color. When standing in front of the printer the there is a white gap to the right of the black where ever it meets a color.

Well it has to be head alignment. It really can't be anything else. And from what you wrote here, it'd sound like it's the black that's at issue.

ok, I will try again! thanks

nothin.. anything I can do besides adjusting the horizontal alignment?

did a head alignment in service mode.. fixed it! except my light cyan was to hard to read on the DT1 tests and non existent on the DT3 test? Print test says its fine.. but it's leaving a shadow on anything containing light cyan..
